OK, let's parse.

Fukunaga and several members of his family also run Denver Audio Design, which worked on Tancredo's home theater system, installed during the basement remodeling. Denver Audio currently only has one employee on its payroll, store manager Brett Olkowski, who said he was born in Buffalo, N.Y.

Ah, yes. Only one "current" employee. Have they fired anyone recently?

Olkowski said he and two other men worked on Tancredo's audio system - Jeff Wolff, who was born in Denver, and Brad Brock-Purviance, who was born in San Diego.

They did ALL of the work, huh? No day laborers to do the grunt work?

Sure. Right. Uh-huh.

<snip>

Tancredo, a Republican from Littleton representing Colorado's 6th Congressional District, said he had no evidence that the companies involved in his renovation project did anything wrong, so he planned to take no action.

Why am I reminded of Al Gore's infamous iced tea?

"I have nothing to tell the INS about these two alleged illegal aliens who are felons," Tancredo said.

Hmm. He's suggesting that he knows they're here and they're illegal. "I don't know who they are and I don't even know if they are real people.

Now he doesn't.

"I have no information to lead me to believe the company has done anything wrong.

Coupled with his earlier statement...is it that he doesn't know, or that he doesn't WANT to know?

I don't even know, frankly, that those people really are here illegally. They could be people who didn't even work in my basement, but they despise me."

Interesting. He doesn't know who they are, he doesn't know if they're illegal, but they're felons.

Inconsistencies upon inconsistencies. Something sounds amiss.

Yes, like your claim that you question your contractors about illegal employees.

Something is indeed amiss. The Denver Post printed a libelous article based on anonymous sources who had an axe to grind. They should have known better.
