Immigration ignored by dogmatic left and corporatist right (again)
Don't get me wrong, I like Real Clear Politics. But sometimes I think they shill too much for the corporatist right that profits from the recruited invasion of illegal aliens. In a recent interview with Mitt Romney, RCP co-founder Tom Bevan entirely misses a point, and an opportunity to properly engage on a very telling point that Romney makes almost at the very start of their conversation. Why the following produced no follow-up question is beyond reason:
A couple of months ago, I started tracking the New York Times' "most searched" content". Should I find it surprising that despite the topic "immigration" having never fallen below third place in the search rankings, it fails to show up as a blip on the radar in either the "most emailed" or "most blogged about" categories (also published at the link). What I think this should tell us is that people are searching for answers to our immigration quagmire, but the stories that the New York Times serves up are not deemed worthy of being emailed or being blogged about by those who look to the NYT for information. Could it be possible that even predominately liberal NYT readers are not in agreement with the amnesty-centric positions being promoted by the left's best friend?
I think so.
And I don't see a bit of difference between the disingenuous manner in which Bevan handled the Romney interview in regard to immigration and the anti-American manner in which the New York times handles the same subject matter.

I'd like to know why this response did not intrigue Mr. Bevans enough to at least ask what sort of questions are being asked by the rank-and-file? I think I know the answer: He didn't ask because if he had, he'd have had to report that the vast majority of Republicans are telling Mr. Romney they are pissed off about their nation being invaded. This would be a repudiation of the Bush Dissolve The Nation Doctrine, and it might expose as frauds the other supposed "front-runners" for the GOP nomination.

RCP: What's the question you get asked most?
ROMNEY: From Republican crowds most often the question relates to immigration, then education and healthcare.
