Apropos of my earlier posting on how the open-borders crowd is whistling past the graveyard, Chuck Schumer met last week with Lou Dobbs to recruit him to the cause of amnesty. But Dobbs is useless to them now — who could he possibly bring with him? His following was made up of grassroots immigration skeptics, whose reaction to Dobbs’s “growth” is summed up by what one activist told Jim Antle of The American Spectator, “Lou has gone rogue.” (And I salute Antle’s perspicacity in identifying me as a “highbrow immigration reformer”! We’re a small tribe, who joke in Attic Greek about border control and screen arthouse films about the unbearable ennui of the émigré experience.)
