Denver Moonbats Pray For Elvira Arellano

"We should resist the rhetoric that drives us apart," said one moonbat with the American Friends Service Committee. But the moonbats weren't alone:
Local politicians attended the event, including past Denver Manager of Safety Butch Montoya . . .
Instead of pandering to illegal immigrant communities and their supporters, politicians should pay more attention to the citizens that elected them and pay their salaries.

Just a thought.

Even columnist Ruben Navarrette thinks this is a "slam-dunk" case, and has little sympathy for Arellano:
As the son of a cop, I'd call this case a slam-dunk. Arellano entered the country illegally a decade ago, was deported, re-entered illegally, and then defied a second deportation order by holing up for months in a Chicago church. Then she took an ego trip by going on a national tour in support of illegal immigrants. Finally, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) nabbed her in Los Angeles. Now her tour is canceled, and she is in Tijuana.

Good. It's a shame that Arellano will be separated from her 8-year-old son, Saulito, who was born in the U.S. and is thus a citizen. But the pain is her doing. She knew the risks and yet she put her son's welfare in jeopardy, not just by being an illegal immigrant but a conspicuous one at that.

Blogs For Borders Video Blogburst 082107

This week's latest from Freedom Folks.

More on Elvira Arellano at Michelle Malkin and Lonewacko.

Meanwhile, the left sees this as a rallying point:
All of us in the blogosphere who stand with the undocumented in the greatest civil rights struggle of our generation should make sure this message is not lost in the noise of the right wing hate machine.
And MyFox 31 Denver shows that efforts at the border to enforce our laws have fallen short.
