Encouragingly, Drudge seems to have started dog whistling on immigration again, today supplying a link to Rubio Calls Illegal Aliens 'Undocumented' — Repeatedly by Matthew Boyle Breitbart.com 16 April 2013

Sen. Marco Rubio…has taken to using the term "undocumented" to describe illegal aliens …

The institutional left has been trying to get people in media and politics to stop using the accurate terms “illegal alien” and “illegal immigrant,” and replace them with the term “undocumented worker” or “undocumented immigrant” for a long time.

Moral courage (or intellectual virtuosity) is not a requirement to work for Rubio:

When asked which term his boss thinks is the correct term, "illegal alien" or "undocumented worker," Rubio spokesman Alex Conant declined to answer over the course of several emails.

The question for Patriots is, if Rubio has surrendered on this piece of leftist tendentiousness, what else has he given away?
