"He's damn opposed! Damn, damn, damn opposed!"

How do I feel about the special session on immigration that kicks off today? Well, I'm opposed to the whole thing! Damn opposed! I'm opposed to the flip-flops of Bill Owens, who can't seem to decide whether immigration is a state or federal issue. And I'm opposed to the flip-flops of Both Ways Bob Beauprez, who did less than nothing to stem the tide of illegal immigrants while he was in congress, but now seems to be basing his gubernatorial campaign on the issue.

But mostly, I'm opposed to the fact that nobody knows how much money even the most draconian restrictions might save Colorado's taxpayers. But we do know exactly how much this special session is costing us. $14,000 a day.
