Discover GOP Opprobrium

[teapeebubbles]

National Review’s Mark Krikorian reports today:

According to a congressman’s wife who attended a Republican women’s luncheon yesterday, Karl Rove explained the rationale behind the president’s amnesty/open-borders proposal this way: “I don’t want my 17-year-old son to have to pick tomatoes or make beds in Las Vegas.”

Now, the comments seems to be coming at least second-hand, and as far as I can tell, there’s no video or audio of Rove’s speech.

But it’s an interesting quote if true. There were presumably quite a few people at this Republican women’s luncheon. Might one or two of them be willing to confirm whether Rove actually said this?
