The idea that over half of people polled approve of the new Arizona immigration law is…disturbing? Sad? Terrifying? I don’t know. Maybe all of the above.
I don’t really have much to say other than that. What a country…
I guess the only solace is that I would imagine that the people who like it are somewhat split between the racist loonies who really like it and a bunch of other people who might like it but probably aren’t going to make it the central component of their political thinking. Meanwhile the people that hate it include a LOT of people who really really really hate it. And some of them used to be swing voters.
Am I grasping at straws here?
