You're the one who needs to apologize Mr. Chaffetz


At today's Sutherland Institute debate between Utah's 3rd congressional candidates, Bennion Spencer (D) and Jason Chaffetz (R) , Mr. Chaffetz demanded an apology from Mr. Spencer for supposedly misrepresenting Mr. Chaffetz's heartless immigration policy.

Mr. Chaffetz also stated that he was a Democrat until he learned to read.

I guess Mr. Chaffetz is suggesting that the late LDS leader, President James E. Faust, along with other past and present Utah Democrats never learned to read.

Mr. Chaffetz claimed he would work with all members of congress who have a "good idea", but his above statement is just another example of his arrogance. He has misrepresented the Western Governors Association on their immigration policy (More on that today from Bennion Spencer). He has demeaned all Utah Democrats, and he is showing his true nature and inability to look at immigration issues with a humane heart.

More on the debate later today.

If "liberals" stopped encouraging illegal immigration, wouldn't things be much better all around? Mexico would be forced to reform, many fewer people would try to cross the desert (and thus many fewer would die trying), and many fewer detention centers would be required.

Liberals? Most the people I know that love employing illegals are Republicans. They bitch about it, and yet they don't want to pay a decent wage for a hard day's work.

Since you know them, as you claim, who are these Republican employers of illegal aliens? I bet you can't name one.
