..Iw as going to enter this as an UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: if that post below, but it was getting a little ratty and care-word. So will just let this fusilade of facts in an ad sponsored by Governor Brewer of Arizona stand alone, contrasting the cold, sober effects of illegal immigration and illicit drug trafficking on a state operating without benefit of a federal government led by a POSOTUS unwilling (and incapable) of doing his job.
UPDATE: Woodsterman does the micro-math on illegal immigration in his latest post, Pay Attention. An excerpt:
