What Karl Rove Should Tell La Raza

Human Events ^ | 07/10/06 | The Human Events View

White House adviser Karl Rove is scheduled to speak tomorrow at the annual conference of the federally funded, left-wing, open-borders-advocacy group, the National Council of La Raza.

If he does not want his speech to look like an act of appeasement, he should confront La Raza on its opposition to commonsense policies designed to secure both U.S. borders and U.S. pocketbooks.

La Raza, which means “The Race” in Spanish, has denounced as “horrendous” and “appalling” the House immigration bill passed in December, which was sponsored by Judiciary Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R.-Wis.) and supported by the overwhelming majority of House Republicans. The bill, which calls for tough worksite enforcement of immigration laws and 700 miles of border fencing, was condemned by La Raza as a “laundry list of mean-spirited and intrusive provisions concocted by the most radical immigrations restrictionists in Congress.”

Will Rove defend the immigration reforms passed by President Bush’s party in the House and tell La Raza that House Republicans are neither “mean-spirited” nor “radical”? He should. House Republicans deserve Rove’s support.

Karl Rove is scheduled to speak tomorrow at...the National Council of La Raza.

Uhhhhh, what?

[garbageseeker]

Thank you for the correction.

[alarm rider]

What race are they talking about?

[garbageseeker]

ping

[garbageseeker]

He will be a speaker at the La Raza conference

[ctdonath2]

Mexican. With the intention of taking the southwest USA away from the USA.

[GATOR NAVY]

This is wishful thinking. He's gonna kiss their butts.

[garbageseeker]

If Karl Rove approves this does the President? Karl Rove is the adviser to President Bush.

[alarm rider]

What race are Mexicans?

[JimRed]

What race are they talking about?

Not the Kentucky Derby, the Indy 500 or the Boston Marathon, that's for sure!

[garbageseeker]

LOL

[RegulatorCountry]

"What race are they talking about?"

Their own, and only their own ... never mind that there is no such "race." They're mestizo, a mixture of indio (native) and white, Spaniard males. Somehow, their European surnames and ancestry don't register as being pertinent, especially when territorial aspirations and potential government largesse are concerned.

[LasVegasMac]

What race are Mexicans?

And when are you going to tell us your real point?

[Shermy]

These guys serious? Rove has already told the media how to define the dispute.

He will talk about "minority rights" rather than economics, he will then talk about the worry of the "incivility" of opponents, then he'll talk about "House Republicans" - signifying yet again to Howard Dean and the MSM to begin reparroting his cryptic charges of racism.

He must have had quite a smile when Howard Dean jumped on the band wagon.

Speak English!!

Yeah but its not reallly Roves's Bill - he may try to draw distinctions between the bill and what the administration wants.

[G Larry]

What race are they talking about?

Uh....the 100 yard dash across the border?

[garbageseeker]

Yeah but its not reallly Roves's Bill

Rove is President Bush's "Merlin". The bill that came out of the Senate had his fingerprints all over it.

[garbageseeker]

I agree

[ctdonath2]

Don't be argumentative with those trying to help you understand the stupid.

Remember,several years ago Trent Lott had to resign his post as Senate Majority Leader because he spoke in front of the Council of Conservative Citizens. I think that Senator Brownback and Karl Rove should resign their posts for speaking in front of Hispanic racists who are just as racist as the KKK but against anyone who is not bronze or brown . I believe if the voters of Kansas knew that their one of the U.S. Senators was affiliated and spoke to Hispanic racists bent on "reconquista" and unrestricted illegal immigration, they would either fire him or run a primary challenger against him.

Agreed. But La Raza was talking about the house bill - which was not so much a Rove bill

[sinkspur]

Rove is an embarrassment and insult to our Founding Fathers...I suspect they would have sent him to Britain, or shot him...

Even with over three hours remaining, it's safe to say yours is the "Dumbest Post of the Day."

[garbageseeker]

I thought that you were talking about the Senate bill. I am sorry. There is no doubt, that Karl Rove gave a lot of input in the Senate bill, because basically that what the President wanted. He is probably influencing the House members,like Congressman Pence, to give their versions of Anmesty-lite.

[sinkspur]

Remember,several years ago Trent Lott had to resign his post as Senate Majority Leader because he spoke in front of the Council of Conservative Citizens.

Trent Lott resigned (mistakenly, IMO) for praising Strom Thurmond at his 100th birthday party in front of some friends, saying that the US would have been better off with Strom in the presidency.

The CCC had nothing to do with it.

[seasoned traditionalist]

$15 Million in federal subsidies?

What's up with that and where did it come from; who authorized it and WHY?

Inquiring minds want to know!!

[garbageseeker]

This is a forum to opine. Everyone has a right to express and vent their feelings.

[garbageseeker]

He also forced to resign over the CCC including praising Strom Thurmond

[sinkspur]

Exactly. But, even hinting that Karl Rove should be shot is skating very close to the edge.

[Pharmboy]

Sinky: you and I agree!! You da man...

[sinkspur]

Speaking to the CCC years before had nothing to do with his resignation. It was all about Strom, and only about Strom, and about cowardly Republicans who were still angry with Lott over not "getting" Clinton.

He was railroaded, and Bush didn't help matters.

[garbageseeker]

$15 Million in federal subsidies? What's up with that and where did it come from; who authorized it and WHY?

I remember reading that figure but I cannot place it. La Raza has been in the past given subsidies by the Federal government.

[sinkspur]

Hallelujah! I'm pinching myself!

[garbageseeker]

It doesn't matter. Right now, the President's chief adviser is getting ready to speaking in front of a racist group tomorrow.

[A CA Guy]

Illegal Immigration will break the Republican party unless they start listening to the people that vote IMO.

[sinkspur]

Illegal Immigration will break the Republican party unless they start listening to the people that vote IMO.

Not a chance. The numbers of voting Republicans who feel as passionately as some on this forum do about immigration is less than 20%.

[garbageseeker]

I agree. It is already starting to fracture the party.

[Pharmboy]

LOL!! Just don't make yourself black and blue!! I judge each post by itself...when I believe you are right, friend, I will be shoulder to shoulder with you.

[jocon307]

"He's gonna kiss their butts."

Merely appearing at the conference (or whatever it is) constitutes butt kissing, imho. Next week he should address the Workers of the World Party, and after that have a tea party with Mother Sheehan. He'll get just as moany votes with them as he will from La Raza.

[A CA Guy]

Don't know where you've been looking, but even citizen Democrats are not for any more criminal opportunity.

For heaven's sake it increased the number of violent criminals in prison in California by 50% and has the citizens of CA paying many billions a year to educate citizens of mostly Mexico.

[Iscool]

Even with over three hours remaining, it's safe to say yours is the "Dumbest Post of the Day."

I'm sure the Laraza group shares the same sentiments with you...

That puts you in the Eastern Time Zone...I'd have bet money you were in the Southern Time Zone...

Life just got easier and cheaper for millions of US residents. Freddie Mac, the second largest owner of mortgages in the US, just announced that it has expanded its loan-to-value ratios for many of its loan programs offered through approved lenders.

Now, all resident aliens are eligible for the same high loan-to-value ratio loans as US citizens and permanent resident aliens.

Previously, resident aliens were generally limited to a maximum of 75% loan-to-value prior to establishing a two- year US residency and work history.

It should be noted that lenders must still develop and verify that the applicants have an acceptable credit history and credit reputation such that the applicants meet the normal eligibility requirements for Freddie Mac.

Yep, he's going to pucker up real well and get kicked in the teeth for it.

Does LaRaza have a Grand Imperial Wizard?
Do they wear hoods and sheets?
Big mistake legitimizing racist groups.
