.....my e-mailbox lit up with messages about a new Absolut ad catering to Mexicans who believe the American Southwest belongs to them. (That extreme ethno-supremacist idea is not news to anyone who has paid attention to the massive illegal-alien marches where "This is our continent, not yours" has been a rallying mainstay.) Favio Ucedo, creative director of leading US Latino ad agency Grupo Gallegos, (not involved in the Absolut campaign), explained the reconquista-endorsing ad: "Mexicans talk about how the Americans stole their land, so this is their way of reclaiming it. It's very relevant and the Mexicans will love the idea."
Oops. Guess he didn't get the liberal talking-points manual: You're supposed to deny reconquista exists and label anyone who criticizes it as a delusional racist. The National Council of La Raza claims that reconquista is just a "code word" invented by "hate groups" who are dreaming the whole thing up.
Absolut's initial response to complaints was to hang up on consumers who phoned and to delete their e-mail. For its part, the open-borders Associated Press attempted to minimize Americans' widespread opposition to the Absolut ad and persisted in labeling reconquista views "fringe." I direct them to the speech given two weeks ago by Hillary Clinton campaign co-chair Dolores Huerta, who railed, "We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us" and gloated that immigration enforcement is moot because the reconquista is won. "It's really too late," Huerta said. "If 47 million [Latinos] have one baby each . . . it's already won."

47 million is an estimate for the 2010 US Hispanic population.

Senor McCain better wake up and smell the enchiladas.
THIS LEGISLATON JUST PASSED IN ARIZONA--JUAN'S HOME STATE:
Fed up with the devastating effect of illegal immigration, Arizona has enacted the nation’s toughest laws to curb the problem and evidently its working. State legislators have passed laws barring illegal immigrants from receiving government services, posting bail for serious crimes and winning punitive damages in lawsuits. This year a new law makes it illegal for businesses to hire undocumented workers and those that do can be shut down.
The state legislator who sponsored the work bill, Representative Russell Pearce, says the law’s undeniably positive effects include smaller class sizes, shorter emergency room waits and an overall huge savings to taxpayers. The Republican congressman drafted the bill because studies revealed that illegal immigration cost Arizona taxpayers over $2 billion annually, not including the toll of crime and destruction.
It turns out that enough illegal immigrants have either fled the U.S. or been deported that officials in the Mexican state of Sonora, which shares an extensive border with Arizona, have complained that too many of their fellow countrymen have returned. They miss the remittances sent from the U.S. as well as smaller class sizes in local schools.
Mexican government officials knew Arizona’s tough employment verification law would become their worst nightmare, which explains why they tried blocking it. Earlier this year a delegation of nine legislators from Sonora toured Tucson and held a news conference to say that their beloved state cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools resulting from illegal Mexican workers returning home.
One baffled Mexican legislator, Leticia Amparano Gamez, asked in Spanish “how can they pass a law like this?” She went on to explain that Mexico is not prepared for the “tremendous problems” it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to hometowns in Sonora without jobs. Another member of the Mexican delegation, Representative Florencio Diaz Armenta, asked “what do we do with the repatriated?”
=================================
MEMO TO MEXICO: We could care less what you do with repatriates. They're your problem. Too bad you're not "prepared" to handle it---maybe if you people weren't so corrupt you'd be able to care for your poor instead of tossing them over the border to sponge off Americans.
So we just turn over the fifth largest economy in the world to Mexico. And then what ace, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas?
Juan Hernandez alert: Speaking tonight at Baylor U. (McCain's Point Man for Shamnesty)

For those of you in the Baylor University area, tonight is your chance to ask Juan Hernandez about his radical, open-borders agenda and his role in the McCain campaign. The event is free and open to the public. Bring your video camera:
Dr. Juan Hernandez, author of The New American Pioneers, will speak at 6 pm Thursday in Kayser Auditorium on Mexican immigration. His lecture will be based on his notes, “Why are We Afraid of Mexican Immigrants?”
Hernandez, a member of former Mexican President Vicente Fox’s cabinet (as Reconquista Director), will be the final speaker for The Academy for Leader Development and Civic Engagement’s spring lecture series on leadership in public life. Hernandez has previously served as a speaker in Chapel. “Participants will gain another perspective on the issues of immigration; hopefully expand the dialog on immigration reform asking the question, ‘Where should we as a nation be in creating reform on this issue?’” said Ramona Curtis, director for Leader Development and Civic Engagement. “When I met Dr. Hernandez last year, I found him to be very passionate about communities working together for the greater good. No matter where you stand on the issues of immigration, this lecture will prove to be engaging.”
Hernandez has a lengthy history of involvement in the Hispanic community. From serving as the first United States-born member of the Mexican cabinet to founding the Organization for Hispanic Advancement in October 2003, Hernandez is a proponent of immigration reform. “He’s playing a key role nationally by facilitating an important discussion about immigration, and he’s certainly an expert on the topic,” said Dr. Frank Shushok, dean for student learning and engagement. “He has strong opinions about immigration reform that will spur on needed dialogue among students.”
Ask him about this comment: ““We must not only have a free flow of goods and services, but also start working for a free flow of people.”
Ask him about his lobbying for illegal alien driver’s licenses and Mexico first.
Ask him about his defense of Mexican bus operators carrying illegal aliens to the USA, and promoted extending banking privileges to illegal aliens.
Ask him about this comment: “I want ‘em all to think Mexico first.”
Ask about his work for the Soros-funded Reform Institute. LINK Previous Juan hernandez blogging.

Men died to win the land of California from Mexico. Some little snot nosed idiot with internet access isn’t going to give it away. I live in California, so F U.

Should have taken it back. They would probably taken it back if the seal was intact.
You know, it takes a real numb nut to come here and advocate the turnover to Mexico of the state where the forum he is posting on exists.
When folks come here to slap California around as if nothing good exists here, I wish they would keep that in mind.
There are probably 12 million in La County!
That is the darned truth!

It depends on how you count the illegal alien names used to launder drug cartel money back to south america.
Why not leave whats going on out here to those of us who live out here.
:’)
Welcome to FR.
How nicely you have been brought up to speak to people!
REAL ‘American’ way of dealing with things??? Don’t like someone’s views, swear at them???? HMMMMM ... maybe you don’t belong here!
BTW, the top front-page headline in today's The Washington Times - "McCain advisers tied to foreign lobbying" and mentions conflict of interest issues. No surprise.
Thanks for the heads-up.
