Coulter: Immigration Sense-Making

Conservative snark-mistress Ann Coulter does a column on immigration issues in the current election cycle. The whole thing is worth your time, maybe good for a sour laugh as well.

Here are a couple of choice bits from the column:
Democrats look at immigration as a way to increase their voter rolls, and Republicans look at immigration as a way to get cheap labor for big business. Any Americans who disagree with our all-Third World immigration flow are called "racists." 
Can't we all agree that the very first thing we have to do is seal the border? (snip) Can't we all agree not to give immigrants government handouts? Starting with those two policies is not only logical, but will force Democrats to admit they have no intention of ever blocking the border. Their dearest desire is for immigrants to arrive, become dependent on government and start voting Democratic.
It would also force The Wall Street Journal to admit their target readership can't get enough cheap labor.
