PHX News reporter Lobo got this audio of Karl Rove's speech to the National Council of The Race (La Raza) on Tuesday.
"You know there's an important parallel between the perception of Irish immigrants, or German immigrants, or Italian immigrants, or Nordic immigrants, or Chinese or Japanese immigrants, in the 19th and 20th century in what we're seeing in the debate today over immigration. Unfortunately, the debate has clouded the views of some people in America and lead them to fail to understand that Hispanics and all immigrants are real Americans."
With comments like this, Rove doesn't distinguish between legal immigrants and illegal aliens. And he states that his opposition (those who are against amnesty and rewards for illegal aliens) are "clouded" by some sort of misperception towards hispanics.
Rove can go screw himself. It has nothing to do with whether the illegal aliens are hispanic or norwegian or even martians. It has to do with national security, national sovereignty, the rule of law, right and wrong, and what illegal aliens of every race, creed, nationality, color, and stripe are doing to our communities.
I am sorry, but this stance and view on the immigration issue has soured me on the President's judgement in thi=s area. Although I wholly support how he has tken the war to the enemy on the Terror issue, he is leaving a gaping open flank to our national security on this issue and apparently is doing so to pander to the potential vote and approval of those who are here illegally in this country, and to push forward hios prosperity initiative which I view as un-American as well.
At least we now know that the Bushies have chosen sides in the immigration debate, against the people...
Is this sonofabitch really an intimate adviser to The President of The United States of America? A Republican who pretends to conservatism playing the race card?
Despicable.

Thanks..that is much better.

‘La Raza’ schools: Your tax dollars at work
Top White House adviser Karl Rove traveled to Los Angeles this week to pay homage to the anti-immigration enforcement lobbying group for Latinos: the National Council of La Raza.
"La Raza" is Spanish for "The Race."
It's bad enough the White House lent its prestige to The Race's annual conference. But did you know the Bush administration has forked over millions of federal tax dollars directly to The Race?
According to GOP Rep. Charlie Norwood of Georgia, The Race snapped up $15.2 million in federal grants last year alone and more than $30 million since 1996. Undisclosed amounts went to get-out-the-vote efforts supporting La Raza political positions. The U.S. Department of Education funneled nearly $8 million in taxpayer grants to the group for a nationwide charter schools initiative.
Among The Race's most infamous government-funded charter schools is La Academia Semillas del Pubelo, the Los Angeles public school that teaches "Aztec math" (ancient dot math is the new math) and the Mexican indigenous language of "Nahuatl." The ethnic separatist principal of the school, Marcos Aguilar, told a sympathetic UCLA interviewer:
"We don't want to drink from a White water fountain, we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain…We are not interested in what they have because we have so much more and because the world is so much larger. And ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own destruction."

TOUCHE' BUMP!
No candidate "managed" by Rove will ever get my vote. Ever!
thanks for posting bump!!!!
Bush and Rove could care less about America, our laws and our soverignty. It is obvious that Rove is speaking for Bush when addressing a overtly racist hate group like la Raza.
Principles before party.
"Is this sonofabitch really an intimate adviser to The President of The United States of America? A Republican who pretends to conservatism playing the race card?
Despicable."
He has been referred to as "Bush's Brain". If that is indeed the case then someone needs their HDD reformatted.
