Mitt and Rott: separated at birth

Romney wants to encourage more legal immigration, with a special emphasis on recruiting and retaining high-skilled immigrants. He told Hewitt that, if he had his way, we would literally staple a green card to the diploma of every foreign student who graduates from a university in the United States.

Alas, Rot thinks that's a terrible idea.

I will not deny that foreign students can be bright, but faculty exaggerate their brilliance because foreign students are servile in doing work and favors for faculty and not demanding that professors actually earn their tuition keep. Morevover, faculty like that foreign students are either afraid, complicit or morally ambivalent about the imoral behavior of professors. In many cases they are more likely to share the professors' anti-Americanism than American students. Foreign students are the least risk takers and the least innovative and the most likely to take bureaucratic "safe" jobs depending on grants instead of markets.

Hmm... What kind of students are we talking about here? Some kind of namby-pamby social sciences, or real, hard sciences? There's a big difference between the two.
