Oops. I forgot to ping you to the party!
As for demonizing Hispanics, I don't. But there's absolutely no mistaking the pandering to them. What of the honest folks that wait in line for years to get here from all corners of the globe? "robert david" piously talks of our "once" being a melting pot, (and by the way we're almost all immigrants or their offspring), yet conveniently ignores that we once again need an Ellis Island open to all!
And as an aside, or maybe it really isn't, how come the Mexicans get a break yet Haitians and Cubans who risk their lives to get here in converted bathtubs and '50's cars dont?!? The GOP is an absolute disgrace in the whole regard of immigration.
