In 2002, Cannon won lawmaker of the year from the radical Mexican American Legal Defense Fund. During his acceptance speech, he tells the audiance "We love immigrants in Utah. And we don't oftentimes make the distinction between legal and illegal. In fact I think Utah was the first state in the country to legislate the ability to get a drivers license based on the matricula consular and of that I am proud." Click Here to see the Video

The sooner, the better. Someone has got to kill Cannon-style immigration "reform (shamnesty) and drive a stake through its heart.
This shows the desperation in Cannon's campaign. The immigrants were students...it was legal for them to work. The leader of Jacobs Church asked him to "give" the students money, which they were too proud to accept.
Jacobs then went to an attorney, who helped set up the exchange of services and pay in a completely LEGAL way. You don't hear anything about charges against Jacobs now do you.
Cannon is scum to even attempt this smear!
Obviously the establishment is worried if they are sending Laura down and having the President endorse Cannon.
That gives hope. But beating an incumbent is tough, and we saw what they did with Toomey. Except on most issues Cannon has a more conservative record then Specter, so this is going to be tougher.
I've sent Jacobs money, I can only pray the constituents pay attention and realize the significance of this race and toss Cannon to the curb.
