Peggy Noonan posted a column last Friday that I hope was not lost in the holiday shuffle. In it, she addressed the need to deal with illegal immigration–not forever–but for now. It makes a lot of sense. She leads up to it this way:
More and more our leaders forget the common sense of grandma. In most everyone’s family there was a grandma who used to sit quietly in the corner and say nothing. Then someone would ask her opinion just to be polite, and she’d say something so wise, so commonsensical, it stopped everyone in their tracks. And you realized that she was smart, that she’d lived a life and seen things.
What is her common-sense answer? You have to read the column to see.
