Did Colbert say anything that wasn't already being said by experts? I doubt it. Did Colbert comment on the cost of providing citizenship for these illegals? Did Colbert discuss the morality of providing citizenship for illegal immigrant workers when their are tens of thousands of people who have applied through legal channels who are waiting and hoping to get in? Did Colbert discuss the costs already being paid by these border States because the Feds refuse to enforce their immigration laws?
Colbert no doubt had good intentions but, he added very little to the debate.

So having more people discussing the issue and perhaps putting a light on issues people were not aware of is a bad thing?
In your opinion these experts would just come to the right choices, cause they have been sooo good at doing that in the past when the public is not paying attention.
For shame that more people are watching what their goverment is doing, for shame. Nothing good can come from that.
Great post pal you really though that out.
