Wall views inconsistent

Sat., May 29, 2010

The Spokesman-Review

Whereas conservative talk show hosts credit President Reagan for the Soviet Union’s fall, due to his famous quote: “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall,” talking about the Berlin Wall, here they are advocating the same wall across our southern border.

Whereas they praise the Arizona law, they keep their eyes closed when rich people procure undocumented nannies and gardeners through human traffickers and have them as slave laborers.
