Florida Gov. Bush Accuses Republicans Of Misusing Immigration Issue For Short-Term Political Gain

Looks like Jeb Bush shares my view on the coarsening of the debate surrounding the immigration issue. As noted in the story, "Bush said Tuesday that the tone of the debate had been "hurtful" to him and his Mexican-born wife, Columba. Bush, the younger brother of President Bush, reserved some of his sharpest criticism for conservatives in his own Republican Party, calling it "just plain wrong" to charge illegal immigrants with a felony, as a provision passed by the Republican-led House would do."
