CNN.com - Dean: GOP will make immigrants 'scapegoats' in 2006 - Aug 6, 2005

Ok, I really thought people were smarter than this. Granted, everyone has a cause, but why has Rep. Tom Tancredo [R-Colorado] 'drawn the ire of Hispanic groups in calling for tougher immigration enforcement'? Remember, he's not trying to introduce laws.... he's under fire for trying to better enforce laws that were democratically voted on.

And in one of the bravest things said by any government officals lately, Ahh-nold (the Governator) applauded the Minutemen who volunteered to patrol the borders in southern Arizona and showed INS how to do the job they were hired to do. Of course, he was instantly chastized for speaking the truth by Howard Dean, who apparently feels that addressing border security by enforcing laws that are presently unenforced is 'scapegoating' illegal immigrants.

Perhaps someone should email Mr. Dean the following definition:

Main Entry: il·le·gal
Pronunciation: (")i(l)-'lE-g&l
Function: adjective
Etymology: Middle French or Medieval Latin; Middle French illegal, from Medieval Latin illegalis, from Latin in- + legalis legal
: not according to or authorized by law : UNLAWFUL, ILLICIT;
also : not sanctioned by official rules (as of a game)
