Asking the right questions on funding college for illegal immigrants

Touch?, Sen. Simonaire. Simonaire is a Maryland state senator representing Anne Arundel County. He’s a Republican, which means that in the Papa Smurf-blue state of Maryland he’s probably regarded as something of a threat, a menace and a royal pain in the neck.

As a Republican in a state where Democrats enjoy near hegemony, Simonaire probably considers it his duty – and that of other members of his party – to inject common sense into debates and discussions when Democrats fail to do so. Take what happened last week as an example.
