The danger comes when they focus attention on one ethnic group such as Mexicans, who make up about half of all illegal immigrants in the United States, she said.

MAKING A PLACE FOR WORKERS STORES WOULD BE FORCED TO SHELTER DAY LABORERS.(News)
Daily News (Los Angeles, CA); 9/11/2005

Dan Laidman and Rachel Uranga Staff Writers

Los Angeles would become one of the first major cities in the nation to require big home-improvement stores to create shelters for day laborers under a recently drafted city ordinance that takes aim at regulating the controversial issue.

"Some liberal professor is trying to give illegals refugee status. "

At risk of sounding like a hack, I think we simply must get out of the habit of calling these people "liberals." Our founders were liberals. People like that professor are IMO better described as leftists (I've got better terms but, well you know).

That said, I note that FReeper Travis McGee posted (35) the cover of his excellent book. One of it's characters is a leftist professor who meets a fate that I personally would wish on most leftist professors.

What troubles me is how the ethos of those professors has metastasized down through our high schools and elementary schools. Public schools seem to me to be nothing more than leftist indoctrination pens anymore.

Glenn Spencer's response:

What a Bunch of Crap

[stephenjohnbanker]

“”This is a bunch of crap,” says Glenn Spencer of American Border Patrol. “ABP applies high-technology to the border problem and the people it spots crossing the border aren’t immigrants, they are illegal aliens.” “Not only does this sad excuse for a reporter show her bias by calling these invaders immigrants, when she repeats the Southern Poverty Law Center’s baseless claim that our high-tech firm is a hate organization, she exposes her anti-American bias,” he added. Spencer says there is no doubt that Uranga is hit-lady for big-money globalists. “

How so were our founding fathers liberal? You mean, because they wanted change?

[VR-21]

"How so were our founding fathers liberal?"

I mean liberal in the classic sense. They believed in liberty for the individual. The Constitution they wrote was intended to be a constraint on government rather than on citizens. Modern so-called liberals can't seem to empower government ennough.

At that time in human history I suppose you could say they wanted change, but it was their intent to subordinate government to the people.

The Bill of Rights stated what the government may not do, and of course you see what we now have. I like to think that the Founders would have put many of our present day "representatives" in jail for violation of the Bill of Rights, because again, they are laws intended to constrain government.

I hope I explained myself a little better.

So one group is a full 50 percent of the problem and we aren't supposed to focus on that? It's "dangerous" to deal in truth?

That's a lot of bull. Mexicans are 65-70% of all illegal aliens and Hispanics are 90% of all illegal aliens we have today. Mexicans have a head start due to coming here illegally long before others caught on to our open borders

Thanks Presidente Jorge!!

I agree. Lieberals should not be allowed to hijack the term liberal. Thomas Jefferson was an honest liberal who worked to limit the reach of government. Most of today's Democrats are lieberals masquerading as liberals who seek to expand the reach of government.

Ditto with the word Progressive. Teddy Roosevelt was a Progressive who sought to move the blessings of the American way beyond our shores. Most Lieberals who call themselves Progressive today seek to replace the American way with outmoded Marxism.
