DEMOCRATS SEEK METHOD IN THIS MADNESS

So let me get this straight. The GOP Chair, Ron Nehring, has hired an “alien” to be the party’s chief campaign operative earlier this year.

Now this “alien’s” legal status has been questioned by the Bush Administration’s Department of Home Security. Evidently they busted this operative on an immigration issue. Held him in jail for 30 days.

The guy running the operation for the California Republican Party is suing the Bush Administration’s Department of Home Security for millions of dollars.

Not very patriotic. But then, he is an Aussie.

But give him credit. He did try and become a citizen. Why he married not one, but two American women who tried to legalize his status.

Former GOP spokesperson, Karen Hanretty was critical of the hire – not because of his immigration status, but on the issue of his competency (given his newness to the arena) and the fact that there are out-of-work American GOP operatives.

The flap over his immigration status led the media to explore his background further. They discovered a previous employer who scoffed at his skills and motivation.
