.@Lana_Jordan: Kaus & Krikorian have no intention of actually stopping amnesty. Opposing amnesty - but not stopping it - keeps them employed

.@MeanCharlotte: @MarkSKrikorian put his dislike of me ahead of stopping amnesty. No, really: http://24ahead.com/n/12087 Don't be fooled.

Instead of nativism and protectionism, why not work on fixing the economy? Or have we abandoned that entirely? @kausmickey @Reticulator

.@Wojciehowicz @kausmickey I was open towards immigration until I saw how the corporate crony class uses it to suppress economic opportunity

No, they do not. People have a million excuses for abandoning any focus on the economy, giving up, surrendering. @Reticulator @kausmickey

.@Wojciehowicz @kausmickey Corporate cronies keep supporting corporate welfare and big government, which kills opportunity.

Companies keeping their own money isn't welfare. We need to slash all taxes and rates. @Reticulator @kausmickey

.@Wojciehowicz @kausmickey I'm not talking about companies keeping their own money. I'm talking about corporate welfare.

Corporate welfare has one definition and it was invented by the left: corporations not being taxed enough. @Reticulator @kausmickey

.@Wojciehowicz @kausmickey The WSJ has been railing against true corporate welfare for decades. (Mostly cheap talk, though.)

.@24AheadDotCom_ How am I supposed to know something like that? I don't monitor him 24x7.

From @24aheaddotcom_
.@Reticulator: you don't have to monitor @KausMickey 24/7 - you don't have a trust fund like him I assume - to know he could have done more.

Earlier in NH, Bush called his immigration proposal 'the grown-up plan.' Sure to sit well with GOPers who disagree. http://t.co/3BXQUtD3JY

@24AheadDotCom_ I've always been a little leery of Casa de Fruita, my bet is that all their stuff comes from China and has melamine in it

.@jeffnolan: I would've thought it would be local goods. In any case, @KausMickey should & could have stopped amnesty, but refused to do it.

From @MrWalterShapiro
@kausmickey Why Biden might not want to run: Age, fear of being three-time presidential loser and lack of policy differences with Hillary.
Mickey Kaus's avatar
From @kausmickey
@mrwaltershapiro Seem like insufficient reasons. He'd have fun. He cld win. And you don't think he thinks he'd be better Prez (true or not)?
Walter Shapiro's avatar
From @MrWalterShapiro
@kausmickey One other thing to remember about Biden -- he has a visceral memory of 2008 when he was broke and Obama and Hillary ruled TV.
