Instapundit ends up supporting Bush on illegal immigration

This was highly predictable. Yesterday, Insty posted the following:

I'VE GENERALLY FAVORED OPEN IMMIGRATION, but I find myself feeling less and less that way in the face of mass rallies by illegal immigrants like this one...

Now, he's got an update with an email putting the bestest spin possible on illegal aliens marching in our streets, claiming that "these people are positive about our country, and are interested in being Americans." Insty calls that a "good point".

Didn't you just know that Insty would come around to Bush's position within a very short period of time?

(On a completely OT note, the emailer appears to have some connection to the Sheldon Drobny case.)

Whatever else an aware person thinks about immigration laws in our country, how can he think people waving Mexican flags "are positive about our country, and are interested in being Americans"?

It's just baffling.
