Crossing the line into madness
I've never been a huge fan of the immigration debate. I never thought the President was totally off the mark by trying to transform our laws into a managable system to organize labor (pardon the expression). I thought his speech last night was a perfectly reasonable and rational defense of his position, even if I don't believe much of his "guest worker" plans will be enforced in the way that's necessary to get the job done right. And I've always liked good conservatives like Michelle Malkin too much to get into a scuffle over an issue I truly believe most of them champion without any racial animosity. But this is why I'm not on the bandwagon over this issue. Ed is right on the mark.
UPDATE: Cox & Forkum have a cartoon and commentary running parallel to my thoughts.
