The Latest Fox Freak Out Over Immigration

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/...ative-backlash

"Top Immigration Court Hands Huge Win to Battered Women Seeking Asylum. Conservatives Freak Out."

"On Tuesday, the country's top immigration court ruled that some migrants escaping domestic violence may qualify for asylum in the United States. The decision, from the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), is a landmark: It's the first time that this court has recognized a protected group that primarily includes women. The ruling offers a glimmer of hope to asylum-seekers who have fled horrific abuse. The decision has also infuriated conservatives, who claim that the ruling is a veritable invitation to undocumented immigrants and marks a vast expansion of citizenship opportunities for foreigners."

Yes, very good.

How many millions came here seeking asylum from war, famine, political tyranny (Real political tyranny foisted upon people like Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot, not the imaginary kind the tea party bitches about.).

So, if South Americans are coming here to seek asylum from drug cartels run amuck, only an asshole would support turning them away. Oh, that's right assholes are doing that. See, what did I tell you?

They'd rather be angry than good. Anger appeals to their base. Goodness doesn't. The GOP's stock and trade is not appealing to the better angels of our nature.
