I can't claim credit, sorry. I think it was Don Feder who first coined it as an adjective for the unseemly way our bipartisan establishment has competed to make life easier for illegal immigrants even if that's antithetical to American values and hurts our national security in the long run.

Well, I'm not quite buying that. Let's be honest here - supply is merely catching up with demand when it comes to labor. If FAIR/CIS/Malkin/Tancredo and others complaining about the President's guest worker program are positive that there are Americans willing to do these jobs, why don't they try to get folks who are currently on the welfare rolls to do them? Or teenagers over the summer? Where is the demand for those jobs from those sectors? If they're not willing to take the job at the salaries offered, shouldn't the business owner have the option to offer the job to someone who WILL take it at that price?

You can't MAKE someone take a job they don't want. To be quite honest, the chickens of legalized abortion (to the tune of 1 to 1.5 million a year) and Americans thinking certain jobs are beneath them (except at exorbitant salaries) have come home to roost.

And what is the term "Hispandering"? I'd consider that to be race-baiting - which of course, those of us who point out the bigoted comments of people like Sam Francis and Pat Buchanan and groups like American Renaissance and VDARE get accused of. The concerns I have about racism from those folks are not race-baiting, they're backed up by comments and quotes from those people/organizations.

This is before we even get to the logistics end of this - and short of cattle cars and mass round-ups, I don't think it is possible to deport 8 million illegal immigrants. Or is that why Michelle Malkin is trying to defend the reprehensible internment of Japanese-American citizens? I have to wonder...
