I'm still amazed at how the immigration issue manages to bring out the ugly, racist hypocritical side of some progressives and liberals. I've heard some shocking anti-immigrant stuff come out of liberal mouths who normally sound quite rational.
I'm also shocked that a regular list member is spouting off anti-immigrant bullshit while the rest of the list sits on its collective hands.
