Yes, because sometimes the self-interest of the illegal immigrants is to use government sponsored programs and conservatives self-interest is usually to not have the government tax the people.

Conservatives want low taxes, so by illegals using government sponsored programs, they are raising the taxes, going against conservative's interests. And sometimes an illegal alien's best interest is to use government sponsored programs (health care, education, welfare), so there is a clear paradox. This conflict of interests is intensified by the illegal part, which goes against most conservative's morality system, which just adds fuel to the fire.
