That is a very plausible thing. A very clever, crafty strategy. Only that it would backfire up in their faces.

"I must not be ‘nuanced’ enough to know any better..."

Not at all!
You have simply been successful in resisting the leftist indoctrination pushed at you from early childhood in Government Indoctrination Skools...

Entire generations of American children have had their minds screwed up -- and frequently other parts of the bodies screwed with ----- by "Civil Servant, Government Teachers" who keep getting mixed up between the President command to "Leave no child behind", to "Leave no child's behind alone"..

GREAT NEWS!!!

Now comes a deportation trial and endless drawn out proceedings. The Arellano side thinks it will become a pro-illegal passion play. What will really happen is the American people will be horrified as they learn how hard it is to deport these arrogant parasites

Arellano's journey will be by road, her supporters said.

"She (or rather "they", her handlers) had to know this was going to happen. Frankly, this whole thing strikes me as being about as spontaneous as an 19th century Russian ballet....and just a choreographed."

Her usefulness in remaining in the church, like ABC gum, had passed. It was time to whip up more hysteria and generate new propaganda highlights with a change of tactics. Hence, time to go get arrested, and refresh her martyrdom.

I pray that you’re right, and it plays out that way. The MSM will try every way they can to make this multiple lawbreaker, the “victim”.

Elvira Arellano, an illegal immigrant who has taken up sanctuary at Adalberto United Methodist Church in Chicago since Aug. 15, 2006, talks to the media during a press conference at the church in this Tuesday, Aug. 14, 2007 file photo in Chicago. Arellano has left the sanctuary to attend an immigration rights rally in Los Angeles, her friend said Friday, Aug. 17, 2007. (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green)

They will fight it no doubt, tooth and nail.

Her image will replace that of the Virgen Maria tatooed into the burly arms of MS-13 gang members. A virtual cause celebre.

They might as well start a clearance sale on the Che T-Shirts once they start printing up "Free Elvira".

"She left Chicago on Wednesday."

Google says that's 2,016 miles or "1 day, 5 hours" which I interpret as 29 hours...steady driving at an average of 68 MPH.

I'm still betting on some air time and I'm still wondering who paid for it / who provided the aircraft.

Or, if I'm wrong, who provided a bus and multiple drivers - and how did they manage to avoid stopping to campaign along the way?

(Actually, I'm inagining a crazed pastor, red eyed and high on caffene, hauling down the interstate in his church provided Prius, with la Bandita and piles of KFC and Red Bull containers, avoiding road blocks, admirers, and comfort stops for two thousand miles...arrest would be merciful)

So, if a group of citizens decided that they weren’t going to pay taxes this year to protest money going to illegal immigrants, I wonder if they would be safe if they took sanctuary in a church, like this woman was?

“I either go to my country, Mexico,”

This foreigner is considering leaving her own child behind in this country....What kind of person would consider doing that. And then she wants to cry about separation...voluntary separation...she doesn’t have to leave a minor child!

zThey have to end this automatic,taxpayer paid citizenship that has all these pregnant women coming over here to drop their babies.

Maybe the lurkers are fans of bitter irony. Not that any regular posters on Bush and the borders have such an attitude..

You know, you could be right about that, because I'm still laughing my azz off over this...

"“We are sad, but at the same time we are angry,” said Javier Rodriguez, a Chicago immigration activist who worked with Arellano. “How dare they arrest this woman?

That's comedy gold right there ^^^^^^^^^
