Dobbs’ statements about the number of illegal immigrants in the US are correct. If anything, he’s underestimating. It’s much, much higher than the miraculously unchanging “12 million” figure, which was reached back in the early 80′s. (My 1980 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records gives a figure of 10 million in the year of its publication.)The arguments for the accepted figure pretty much all boil down to “everyone responsible is quoting it, so it must be true.” Yeah, I read it in the papers and saw it on TV, so there it is. Absolute stupidity.
