LICENSES (AGAIN).

Blitzer is fixated on the question of whether we should give licenses to illegal immigrants. I think Obama made a good point: Licenses are wedge issue. It's not about the licenses -- that's become an issue because states and municipalities are struggling with public safety issues in the absence of reasonable immigration policy. "They're here to work, not to go to the "In-and-Out Burger," he said. Whomever is elected won't be making decisions about licenses, but they will be able to use the bully pulpit to push for much-needed comprehensive immigration reform.
