My point was not that booing her was a good thing; I get along with her fine, despite her being all wet on immigration. But the intensity of feeling on this is largely a function of the contempt with which the party establishment treats the grassroots: the president calling the Minutemen “vigilantes,” Chris Cannon and Darrell Issa saying restrictionists don’t belong in the Republican Party, and the shameful conduct of the Wall Street Journal’s editorial page. If mass-immigration supporters are going to dish it out, they’d better be ready to take it.
