Ritter strikes back at Beauprez on immigration

Have you checked out Both Ways Bob Beauprez's latest podcast? No? I don't blame you. It's full of eye-roll inducing remarks like, "Illegal immigration is illegal, isn't it?" and vague rhetoric like, "My Democrat (sic) opponent Bill Ritter and I disagree on this, but I oppose taxpayer funded benefits for illegal immigrants."

Apparently the Ritter team has learned from the mistakes that John Kerry made in '04. They're not going to let the Republicans spread this rubbish without striking back. A press release from Ritter states, in part:

Congressman Beauprez has spent the last four years in Washington and has done nothing to fix the illegal immigration crisis. Now it's suddenly an issue for him because he's running for governor. I will not allow the Congressman to misrepresent my position. I oppose providing welfare benefits to undocumented immigrants. I oppose issuing driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants. I oppose providing any benefit that is prohibited by state or federal law.
