Geraldo Rivera, senior correspondent for Fox News, told a group of Hispanic journalists vigilantes had created "hysteria along the borders" and advised his colleagues not to "let your newsroom push you around on the issue of immigration."

"Bust them on their hypocrisy," Rivera said at the annual awards gala of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists in Washington last week, according to a report by the Robert C. Maynard Institute of Journalism Education.

Rivera, who served as honorary gala chairman of the event, announced from the hotel stage that he was donating $80,000 to NAHJ and $20,000 to Unity: Journalists of Color.

"In vast sections of the country, there would not be a lawn mowed or a dish washed but for illegal immigrants," said Rivera. "I'm for not being embarrassed about who we are. If we make it, you can't forget where you come from."

No, butthead, it would just cost a little more, OR, the owners would do their own lawns.

I thought his real name was Jerry Rivers? Doesn't sound hispanic to me...

"In vast sections of the country, there would not be a lawn mowed or a dish washed but for illegal immigrants,"

Sure hospitals are closing emergency rooms and public schools are breaking under the large non-English speaking student population, but the lawns look neat. I guess it's a fair trade-off.

Yeah, wait until they figure out how much vote fraud they can create with the Motor Voter law that does NOT question citizenship when someone registers to vote. Vote fraud with illegals cost Cong. Bob Dornan his seat in Cal and the limp wristed RINO's wouldn't even come to his aid.

Stop it! Geraldo is good people. We bonded during his stay at Neverland. :P

I remember Whore-aldo speaking out against Proposition 187 before it was voted on, too. So this does not surprise me.

That's what we used teenagers for when I was growing up, Geraldo! We didn't have power mowers, trimmers, edgers or dishwasing machines either, and we LIKED it that way!

[Conspiracy Guy]

He bought Velvet's book? Be a Ho!

[sheik yerbouty]

He graduated Cum Louder..
