Rove on immigration: 'I don't want my son to have to pick tomatoes'

An oops oops by Tubby McTreason...


The Corner at the National Review Online
reports that at a Republican luncheon yesterday White House adviser Karl Rove was overheard explaining the Bush amnesty immigration plan by saying, "I don't want my 17-year-old son to have to pick tomatoes or make beds in Las Vegas."

I am sure with all of his connections his son will follow in much the same path.

Hi Chicago guys.
It would probably be best if Karls kid did pick tomatoes. Honest work to make an honest buck should be spurned by no-one, amd he might decide to get a PHD in tomatoe culture, after learning what a tomatoe truely is. He would also be concerned in how that tomatoe is raised, how much herbacide, pesticide, and genetic hocus pocus is involved. Especially if he felt kind of queezy after the crop duster flew by. If he only learned these few things, he could be able to become a human bean.

I rather Karl and his kid working for company whose owner of the company was a former fruit picker. Now that would be priceless...
