Day laborers.

Another nail in the coffin of Putz's "no one was really mad at the immigrants just the politicians'" meme courtesy of K-Lo. (h/t Atrios)

I don't blame any American for wondering. Did you see the NYTimes picture of the illegal immigrants immigration-bill proponents brought to the Senate??

As a Senate friend said to me about it: "all they did was remind people what the problem is. These guys aren’t living in the shadows—they’re walking around unabated in the United States Capitol. Why, if you’re trying to make the case for amnesty, would you remind people of the local 7-11, where you sometimes can’t get to your car for all the day laborers? Dumb, dumb move."

Sure doesn't sound like it's directed at Trent Lott, does it?
