And some wonder why some of us are for keeping Islam outta here! Substitute "Islamic" for "Latino" and it's a scary statement.

See tagline.

.... to draft an agenda to strengthen immigrant rights, health care and education.

So they want to draft an agenda for saying, "You've got it, I want it, you owe me," do they?

Comment

I wonder when the one true congress in Washington is going to stand up for my non immigrant rights?

I am just sick of all this Me First crap from every conceivable minority group.

It used to be that no one wanted to have a minority moniker placed on them because of the adverse stigmatizing but now it is all the rage among liberals.

"Inspired by the millions..."

Millions? What a fantasy world some live in.

Exactly.

This is where the notion began; everything since is a copycat effort.

"That will take a long-term effort of voter registration, getting people out to vote, training local leaders and new candidates,

It's a good thing illegals need papers to vote.

People like Dubya, mc cain and teddy kennedy have given them the green light.

embolden? Well, perhaps they are boldly stupid. If two senators ran around telling Anglos they could ignore major portions of the law would you think that would result in millions of such anglos showing their collective azz in the streets of our cities? In this day and age of law enforcement? Not a chance. But the "Latinos" (criminal illegal alien border violators) are right on it, waving their cute `lil mexico flags and banners "demanding amnesty."

I believe calling them (collectively) stupid is being rather kind.

Will it be a fight or are we too comfortable and just going to let them have what they want. azatlan.

Most will sit it out. But if there is an actual territorial grab, the "latinos" will get cut down. Way WAY too many pizzed-off Americans that are armed to the teeth to just let it slide. DC would attempt to intervene but most of the troops will be scratching their heads trying to figure out why they have orders to put down American Citizens over invaders. It's that old "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States" they hear every time a President is sworn in. The troops sit on their hands, their CO's are ok with that `cause they are from a generation that remembers what America is all about and the "Latino Revolutionary Heroes" get a sharp, fast lesson in "America love it or leave it."

Queria começar tentando relacionar a pintura triste,mas cheiade vida,de seu amigo Bram Van Velde,com seu próprio trabalho.Ficacada vez mais claro para mim que Van Velde realizou uma obra menosimportante que a sua,mas com uma característica que o senhor,dealguma forma,talvez inveje ainda hoje:seu lirismo.Pois a diferençaentre seus primeiros romances,onde ainda havia alguém que sofria osreveses do mundo,e tudo o que nasce com Godot,éque deixa de haversofrimento porque não há ninguém do outro lado — não porque omundo tenha desaparecido, ao contrário: as personagens é quetomaram conta das coisas,tomaram conta de tudo,tornaram-se omundo inteiro,assenhorearam-se do passado e do futuro (e aqui eu meentusiasmei),como pequenos deuses,plenos a ponto de não ter de falarde nada.Não há alusão a coisa alguma forada cena,portanto não há algonem ninguém para temer ou desejar — o Godot esperado na verdade jáestá lá dentro do palco, e por isso não chega nunca. Assim não hálirismo,não há bem alegria nem sofrimento,mas uma eternidade feitade coisas transitórias, perecíveis, coisas do aquém (trocadilhos,palavrões,flatulência).O senhor concorda com isto? O senhor lamentaesta renúncia ao lirismo?

There is only one reason why that scenario would not be correct:

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." (Edmund Burke)

There are a lot of good guys out there that believe in this and are getting called names like vigilante. Really makes it hard to believe ANY of the name callers...

They are stupid to be emboldened. If we have any kind of uprising that results in Americans getting hurt,or worse, there will be a call to impeach Bush, and close the borders tomorrow! Good on both counts, as far as I am conserned. Then we will see if Cheney wants to learn Spanish or not.

Inspired by the millions of immigrants who took to the streets to demand legal residency, Latino advocacy groups and politicians have called for a national Latino congress to keep the issue in the political spotlight.

What a great idea!!! Apparently, these bozos haven't felt the palpable anger they have stirred up in this nation and they want to fan the flames even more.

Geniuses like this need to expend their energies fixing their own countries, NOT trying to make this one into a carbon copy of the one they left to invade this one. IOW, Mexicanos GO HOME!!! Mi casa NO ES su casa!!!!

The trouble is that no one quite sees that the very best thing we could do for Mexico is to send their now well trained citizens home.

Suddenly Mexico would have a skilled workforce who knew something about how a world class country worked.

Think these folk would propel a great leap forward for Mexico?

I do.

Basically the ruling class in Mexico will not change of its own volition. But it can be forced to change.

The Mexicans in the USA have had the picture of what a well run country looks like tatooed on the back of their eyeballs. And they'll have an idea of how to get there. Send them back to Mexico and they'll get a revolution in Mexico that'll do that country some good.

The shock troops for that would be the 12 million repatriated Mexican citizens. Having seen what a well run country looks like they would not want to be stuffed back in the old wineskin.


There's something more.

I follow water desalination research pretty closely. While water desalination costs have dropped to about a third of what they were 15 years ago--the rate at which prices will drop over the next seven years will accelerate considerably. imo in even the next five years we will see desalination costs drop to 1/10th of today's costs.

Basically, the foundations are being laid today to make it economically feasable to to turn all the world's deserts green. (The proper way to look at this is to recall that cars, tv's and computers were at first rich men's toys but when prices came down they changed the world. Desalinised water is still relatively speaking -- a rich man's toy. But when the price drops sufficiently--desalinised water will change the world--because most deserts are right beside the ocean.)

imho cheap desalinised water will do for the republicans (if they can get this on their agenda) what the great dam building projects & the tva of the 1930's &40's did for democrats because 1/3 of the US is deserts. We would increase the habitable size of the USA by 1/3.

Dirt cheap desalinised water will also do things like make it possible to double the habitable size of Mexico.

And desalinated water in tandem with repatriation of now skilled Mexican citizens would propel Mexico into being a world class country.

I loved your statement but I changed a few words for my new tagline...
