Clueless Peter Beinart: driver's licenses for illegal aliens is "trivial" issue

Peter Beinart (a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations) offers "A Non-Story Remakes the Race". While it contains several other of his "thoughts", this one is relevant to this category:

In recent weeks, the Democratic primary campaign has frequently revolved around small, even trivial, issues -- driver's licenses for illegal immigrants, rumors of planted questions at town-hall meetings and dirty tricks -- that supposedly testify to the character of the candidates.

As the posts in this category will show, driver's licenses for illegal aliens is not a "trivial" issue. File this away under "Beltway Cluelessness".

UPDATE: "Categories" are no more at this site, see the drivers licenses page for the replacement.
