But that doesn't seem to hold water around here lately.

I am not certain what your intention is, but you substituted Hispanic names, and implied that some freeper's may be over obsessed with Hispanic's of late.

You I take it are getting tired of this.

The obvious answer, as to why there is a focus on Hispanics, is the immigration bill, the (slightly)less obvious answer is the degree of anger many of us have as to the failures of the government to address this issue.

The more obvious answer is the complete failure of the Republicans to grab this issue, capitalize on the anger and direct it to where it belongs:

Enforce the Law

No Amnesty

Voter ID mandatory

All Felons -- Deported, no questions asked.

You and I have no differences on illegals, the border and the non-enforcement of existing law. I'm sick of it all.

However, I AM tired of almost every thread bringing the topic up, assuming every person with a Hispanic sounding name as an illegal. There was a thread about bedbugs this morning that blamed illegals for infestations. As if illegals have the bucks to stay 4 or 5 star hotels. So why bring the topic up here? Doesn't seem to matter anymore.

How about a thread about "Kalifornia" illegals drinking Budweiser at Starbuck's while using Microsoft Vista to read articles about Paris and Rudy? Post a thread with all of those topics. You know what you'll get?... 500 to 600 (I'll coin a term here) "FReejerk" comments denigrating the(insert bugaboo) topic.

There's a lobster loose! Quickly cover yourself with hot butter and carry lemons just in case!
