It is there. Like I said, go back to page 1, come back for your gold star. Or be nicer and I will just tell you.

I shouldn't jump in here, but the prospect of Cali asking someone to be nicer is too rich to resist. Very amusing.

Is it worth the effort to point out the irony of Tex being rude while criticizing someone else of being rude...

I still don't blame Romney for this (assuming what he says is true about meeting with the company), but this is exceptionally embarrassing.
The only people who don't hire illegals are the poor, and they don't vote. Plus, there's no practical way to use this directly. How do you bring it up without coming off like an ass knowing that you likely used illegals too in the past. If anything, this is a trap for anyone trying to use it.

Giuliani has already used it, and now the media is the one using it without any politician needing to throw it out there.

The story is a day old and it's already all but dead. Nobody cares about using illegals, they only care about letting them in.

I think it will die down, until the inevitable question is asked to the owner of the lawn care company: did Romney, in fact, speak to you a year ago about not hiring illegals. If he says no, it will get ugly in a hurry.

I don't see the owner of a company using illegals looking to get under the lights and talk about why he used illegals. What's he going to say, "I asked Romney if it was OK that I use illegals," and he said, "no problem." Not credible.
