Comment: A perfect example of why these two are NOT political opposites.

Under fire from many of his fellow Republicans over his immigration plans, President Bush heard some kind words on that subject today from someone who's often among his sharpest critics -- Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Our friends at ABC News' Political Radar report both Bush and Clinton addressed the 2007 Esperanza National Hispanic Prayer Breakfast this morning, and that the senator praised the president and Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy for their work on the immigration bill "and commended them on helping lead the way to finding common ground between the Democrats and Republicans."

"I applaud the president. I applaud Senator Kennedy. I applaud Republicans and Democrats alike who have come together around an issue that we know is drawing attacks from all directions," Clinton said.

A transcript of President Bush's address is here.
