GOP Falls on its Sword

Cal Thomas suggests Republicans are headed for trouble if they choose to support illegal immigrants over their base, and the country:

Too many Republicans seem to care more about the future of their party than the future of the country. Congress should not behave like some ancient pope, handing out papal bulls for absolution of certain sins in exchange for contributions to the church. In the case of illegal immigrants, moderate-liberal Republicans want to "absolve" illegals, hoping for electoral contributions to their party. It won't work, because even if all illegals end up becoming legal and voting for Republicans (which is unlikely), the conservative disgust and abandonment of the GOP would outweigh any short-term gains the party might enjoy.

I knew the GOP had become free spenders like the liberals, but I never thought they would sell out to the false moralism of political correctness.
