Democrats and illegal immigration

An article which appeared last month in the Christian Science Monitor tells how Democrats could gain politically and protect American workers by taking a decisive stand against illegal immigration - something that the Bush White House refuses to do. As proponents of cheap labor policies, most Republicans are naturally tolerant of illegal immigration. The article asks what went wrong with Democrats who have traditionally supported control of our borders. Both parties have failed to protect our borders and Democrats should demand that our party return to its tradition of fighting for the interests of American workers as we know that the Republicans are the party of big business will continue to tolerate illegal immigration.

Excellent point, RD. But the D's won't run with it. Too touchy for them.
