"Caesar Chavez did not like illegal immigration. But Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers of America with labor leader Cesar Chavez, supports it."

The problem is, she's trying to make it a "Latino" problem; rather than an "illegal" problem. She is conflating the two in such a way as to imply -- illogically -- that if you don't continence Illegal "Latino"(Mexican) immigration, than you don't like Latinos(Mexicans)-- an absurdity at best.

Latinos do not pose a threat to the government and should be valued for their economic contributions, said Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers of America with labor leader Cesar Chavez.

"We have to let people know what the truth is. This is a distraction," Huerta said.

Latinos DO pose a threat - not only to our government but to our culture and way of life.

Look at the relative economic prosperity of the US, and compare it to the relative poverty of Mexico. Mexico probably has more natural resources per capita that we here in the US, yet Mexico is mired in poverty and in corruption at all levels of government. The same can be said for Nigeria and many other countries around this planet.

It is crystal clear to me that the reason for this economic disparity is cultural. We have our culture (or mix of cultures) and Mexico has its culture (or mix of cultures). The economic and societal fortunes of the USA and Mexico (this also applies to Nigeria, Cambodia, El Salvador, and most other countries) stem from their respective cultures.

Simply stated - I don't want our national culture blended with these other national cultures. We have enough homegrown cultural problems without importing more.

I have no problem with immigrants per se, but I don't want their cultures to take root here.

The only way this can be prevented (or at least delayed) is for immigration to be limited and controlled, to such an extent that immigrants are fully assimilated into our culture. No Cinco de Mayo, no talk of Aztlan, no bilingualism, no balkanization.

The proposed amnesty is the single biggest danger to our country in my lifetime, and I intend to speak out and do whatever I can to assure no amnesty is given and that the illegals are pushed out and kept out. I intend to pressure my government every way I know how.

The Democratic Party are looking like a bunch of "jackasses" by siding with the Latino groups. They are hiding the fact that they are ones to gain if CIRA is passed.

[garbageseeker]

I agree with you.

"Latinos do not pose a threat to the government and should be valued for their economic contributions, said Dolores Huerta, who co-founded the United Farm Workers of America with labor leader Cesar Chavez."

Well isn't that nice. Of course what the AP doesn't tell you is that this is the same "lady" that propagandized to a captive high school audience that "Republicans hate latinos". Once again AP demonstrates their bias not by what they say but rather by what they don't say.

The House border security bill can be "controversial" and the Minutemen most certainly are "controversial" but this lying Marxist race pimp apparently is not "controversial".

Hispanic leaders said Friday that Republican plans to hold national hearings on an immigration bill are a stall tactic aimed at delaying immigration reform and attracting more votes for the GOP this fall.
John Tresvina, president of the Mexican American Legal and Education Defense Fund, said the hearings were "basically a stalling tactic."

Again media gets it wrong. This is a Mexican group, not Hispanic. Hispanic implies all people of Spanish ethnic origin. That is an erroneous racial stereotype to think that all Hispanics will back Mexican illegals on the immigration issue. What's in it for Cubans or Puerto Ricans to go to political war for Mexican illegals?

Tammy Bruce pretty much nailed it in this article.

"This is a Mexican group, not Hispanic. Hispanic implies all people of Spanish ethnic origin. That is an erroneous racial stereotype to think that all Hispanics will back Mexican illegals on the immigration issue."

Many Hispanics do not 'back Mexican illegals on the immigration issue'.

You nailed it!
