Immigration Raids for show? Or Early Government Gift Giving?

The Denver Post speculates that these raids are an attempt by the Bush Administration to pressure the incoming Congress to deal with immigration issues early in the term — guess Bush is desperate to be able to sign something, anything, that gets the GOP back on track with latino voters. Maybe it's just me, but arresting parents and leaving their nursing babies behind is not exactly the way to build good will among any particular community, now is it?

Nice that these families lives get to be ripped apart right before Christmas so that Bushie can put on a good show, isn't it?
