Not the important immigration news of the day, but for a talk radio host or his/her audience it's practically their job to blame immigrants for something or everything.
The telling point in next several months is not who is most outraged over the current immigration mess, but who has a viable, realistic, achievable solution to put on the table.
Mass voluntary departure of immigrants wont happen and mass deportation would do a great deal of harm on so many levels. So how do we eliminate or greatly reduce the underground society, make legal immigration paramount, and ensure enforcement at the border and interior? A plan that includes legalization among other things is the only path forward.
