...in the followup comment...but even worse (i'd say) in the article itself.
I was being specific in the liberal politic regarding non enforcement..the safe harbor policies.
The waters do indeed get more muddied when you bring in hiring and enforcement of work rules..and I agree that the conservative side has alot of problems here. GWB and his ilk don't get a pass from me either.
But labor law and hiring are secondary issues..by this I mean the primary enforcement of immigration rests with law enforcement..which unfortunately has specific policies to NOT enforce laws. That is something with which I (obviously) have a large problem.
