Really? Is that why the White House announced yesterday amnesty is not part of the equation in current law or proposed reforms.

Is this populism? Was the Tea Party really involved? Or have people just had it with business as usual in Washington? And, a bold new proposal for advertising from the Bob Davis Podcasts, at the end of this podcast. If you want more podcasts, use the donate button to sponsor one.
