Out. Of. The. Park.

Mark Steyn, illegal immigration, READ IT.

UPDATE: Powerline has a post up about coordinated demonstrations being planned for tomorrow. They need volunteers to capture video and photos. Sounds worthwhile.

BTW, pick any of the events planned and search the names of "coordinators". It is illuminating. A decent reporter out there should jump on this - it's potential Pulitzer stuff. I rather doubt any will though….

UPDATE: Boehner is starting to say that there is a real problem. He would appear to be breaking with Bush on this one.

UPDATE: Photos from Minnesota, courtesy of EckerNet.

UPDATE: No pictures from Random Numbers. His camera was smashed by thugs. As he puts it: "but had this been a mostly white anti-illegal-immigrant rally and I were a Latino covering it, it would have been in the headlines of the DaMN the following day on page one."

    The House of Representatives is the branch of Congress closest to and most responsive to the voters. That’s how our system of government was designed to function, and it’s working properly. David Boener is right to break with GWB on this issue, he’s doing his job.

    The American people want our borders secured before any other immigration issues are considered. Illegal immigration, legal immigration, amnesty, or guest worker programs, all can wait till we have secured our borders with a fence.

    Border security is too important an issue to allow it to be mixed up and given short shrift in the debate over how best to deal with the illegal immigrants already here, and with legal immigrants who want to come here in the future.

    If the GOP bungles border security, they should be rejected at the polls in November. This is a deal breaker for Conservatives. If the Republicans think they faced a firestorm over the nomination of Harriet Miers, they ain’t seen nothing yet

    Yeah, I’ve said all along that the Republicans would do very well to get tough on border control right now.
