Wow, Kristol says that the reason Chris Shays' constitutants don't want an amnesty a/k/a path to citizenship is because they are wealthy and they like hiring cheap labor which they can get because they are illegals. Nice slur on folks from Connecticut.

I hate to say it, but there's probably some truth to the charge.  I grew up in the NY suburbs (Westchester County) right next door to the area Shays represents and it would certainly have been true of the folks where I came from, Republican or Democrat.  Other parts of Connecticut may be different, but the wealthy and influential folks from the NY border up through Fairfield, which is the folks Shays caters too, are truly "that type."
