I read this one in the Washington Post the other day.

Handle Immigration Bills With Care, Kaine Urges

“In an interview with Washington Post reporters and editors, the governor said he understands why many Virginians are frustrated with the rise in illegal immigration. He said he could support some proposals but is worried that many of what he considered draconian bills would hurt Virginia’s economy and reputation.

“We have to be so careful about this,” Kaine (D) said. “We can’t let these immigrant bills go overboard and paint this picture that we are hostile to new Americans. . . . We can’t afford to go over the top on the rhetoric here.”

Entire report HERE.

Not too confident that the Post would be willing to publish my opinion on it, I sent the letter below to the Washington Times…that newspaper did publish my letter. We thank the Times for the space.

Letters to the editor – all editors – are very important and help to blunt the MSM effort to create a false impression that most Americans are willing to ignore the lack of border security and imigration law enforcement. Or that we will accept the next sure – to – come effort at repeating the legalization (amnesty) scheme for illegal aliens.

I hope that everyone is sending letters to newspaper editors all over the nation.

Gov. Kaine, the appeaser

Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine doesn’t want to crack down on the crime of illegal immigration (“Richmond aflutter on illegal aliens,” Editorial, Jan. 14) or risk offending the business lobby by making it more difficult for lobby members to find black-market labor in his state.

At least he is honest. Though he apparently is labeling illegal aliens “new Americans,” real American workers are watching their wages fall and their taxes dollars go to subsidize the employers’ illegal “cheap labor.”

Here in Georgia, we have watched as illegal aliens have packed up and left our state (note from D.A. – video here) for more hospitable places because our legislature passed the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act last year. What we have proved is that enforcement works.

So does appeasement.

Governor Kaine should expect to be able to welcome many former Georgia-based illegals because of his benevolent attitude.
