How, reputedly a woman worked for their family, years ago, and he filed papers for her to remain in the country and blah, blah, blah?
Well, first Roy says it's no big deal:
(ST. LOUIS, Mo.) The Missouri Democratic Party released documents Tuesday that they say paint Blunt as hiring an illegal immigrant and working to expedite her case during his time as Missouri Secretary of State.
“Blunt clearly states in the letter that dora has done some work for his family, and blunt attaches a letter clearly showing Blunt knew of her status,” said Corey Platt, with the MDP.
In the letter, sent on official state letterhead, Blunt writes to Gene McNary, then Commissioner of Immigration and Naturalization, explaining the situation.
“Dora Narvaez has done some work for Roseann [Blunt],” Blunt wrote. He wrote that Roseann Blunt, Blunt’s previous wife, received a letter from Narvaez expressing her “concern regarding her status in the United States.”
A woman who identified herself as “Narvaez” told the Kansas City Star she worked as a housekeeper for the Blunt’s for some time in 1990, but declined further comment.
Then--now, actually--he says he "doesn't remember" her. From Steve Kraske and The Kansas City Star yesterday:
Blunt can't recall meeting Nicaraguan woman he helped with immigration matter
U.S. Senate candidate Roy Blunt said Wednesday that he could not recall meeting a Nicaraguan woman he helped with an immigration matter in 1990.

Well, Roy, I gotta' tell ya', on this one, we believe the first story, that she worked for you and that you plead her case to the government, that's all there is to it.
It's just one more reason we don't want you in the Senate, representing us, too. It isn't your housekeeper, either. It's the fact that you seem, clearly, like you have a problem with truth--and telling it.
But wait--there's more. Check this out from Mike Mahoney's page and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:
Blunt spoke to the editorial board by phone. He was scheduled to appear in person, but changed plans after a small group of protesters — maybe half a dozen — gathered outside the Post-Dispatch building downtown, holding signs accusing Blunt of hypocrisy on immigration.
Six people are holding up signs and you can't show up to talk to the editors of the paper, Roy?
What a wienie.
