Op-ed opposes the rule of law?
Dana Milbank:
If most of the people in Mexico and Central America want to be Americans it would probably make more sense to annex those countries and allow US citizens the same rights.
I think Milbank is not paying attention. There is actually a pretty robust debate going on in the GOP on how to respond to illegal immigration. But what Milbank is really doing is coming out against the rule of law when it comes to immigration. He seems full of empathy for those jumping the queue ahead of those who follow the law. What is the limiting principle for those who push for open borders. Would they allow 8 billion people to just come on in?
