“It shows we’re getting stronger,” Mr. Padilla said. “If there’s that many of us to outnumber the Anglo names, it’s a great thing.”

WAKE UP America!

How much did this cost the tax payers?

Can’t be verified. All the Garcia’s are trembling in fear underground, or at least that’s what the media is saying.

AT THE ALAMO

March 6, 1836.

On that fateful day, Davy Crockett woke up and walked from his bunk on the floor of the Alamo up to the observation post on the west wall.

William B. Travis and Jim Bowie were up there already.

The three gazed at the hordes of Mexicans moving steadily towards them.

Davy turned to Bowie with a puzzled look on his face and said,

“Jim, are we landscaping today?”

Luis Padilla, 48, a banker who has lived in Miami since he arrived from Colombia 14 years ago, greeted the ascendance of Hispanic surnames enthusiastically. “It shows we’re getting stronger,” Mr. Padilla said. “If there’s that many of us to outnumber the Anglo names, it’s a great thing.”

A single word comes to mind here…

Yes, but can they keep up with the Jones’s

They were talking about this on “Fox and Friends” this morning. The weather guy Rich Reichmuth joked that number 9 on the list was Reichmuth.

Having Garcia or rodriguez in the top10 or even top2 is much better than having mohammed in the top10, America is fortunate in that aspect.

My elderly landlords are from Germany and the husband was always ashamed of his German heritage and even went as far as rarely ever talking about it and not even speaking German or teaching his kids German, he wanted them to be Americans. His wife was somewhat in the middle but still learned English and was loyal to America.

Now we have people who want America to become a colony of their former country.

“Altogether, the census found six million surnames in the United States. Among those, 151,000 were shared by a hundred or more Americans. Four million were held by only one person.”

Four million were held by only one person ??

Doesn’t that strike you as odd? How could that be?

“It shows we’re getting stronger,” Mr. Padilla said. “If there’s that many of us to outnumber the Anglo names, it’s a great thing.”

How far along are we on building that fence? And why are people, like this guy, so desperate to hold on to a culture from third world countries that are poor, dirty, and corrupt?

The closing sentence:

"More than 96 percent of Yoders, Kruegers, Muellers, Kochs, Schwartzes, Schmitts and Novaks were white. Nearly 90 percent of the Washingtons were black, as were 75 percent of the Jeffersons, 66 percent of the Bookers, 54 percent of the Banks and 53 percent of the Mosleys."

(Interesting, if trivial, irony: "Schwartz" is the German word for "black.")
