Well that's too bad. That's just the type they prey on. Publik Skools are preparing our little ones right now for College activism. Very sad.
Oops, caught in a media nightmare.
Seriously, the Minuteman Project volunteers are the ones deserving our highest praise and support. Having taken their own personal time and money to spend countless hours alternately baking and freezing, harassed by brain-damaged dopes on dope and never knowing if the Maria Saratchuva(sp) gang is going to make good on their threat to take their lives. Add in the factor of all those irritating pests buzzing around and getting underfoot...and that's just the mainstream press.
Which brings us back to Sean Hannity and his fellow media creatures. Some here have been awful harsh on him but tend to forget that it's his job to not only report and comment but to create visual illustrations designed to draw attention to their stories. He didn't have a visual showing dozens of illegals swarming in - the MinuteMen's effectiveness ruled that out!
It's easy to verbally snipe these guys from our armchairs but much harder to put ourselves in their place. I, for one, don't envy the pressures of deadlines, copy changes, unpredictable guests and, in Hannity's case, a walking argument for abortion as a co-host.
I don't even like their show! They've both become too much like O'Reilly, rudely cutting their guests off when the poor schmo's are only halfway through their responses (as several Free Republic members can attest). I'll take the thoughtful inquiries and respectful treatment Lou Dobbs extends to his guests (no matter how repulsive they might be) over the bombastic style of "journalism" we're seeing from the Fox network's talking heads.
Despite all that any member of the media establishment who's not out to create a hit-piece should be welcomed and treated civilly. The volunteers have done just that while proving to the rest of the country that common citizens are not powerless to perform an enforcement task our federal government is too lilly-livered to do. Kudos to these real modern-day heroes!
