Mexican officials don't want more Mexicans
A delegation of nine state legislators from Sonora was in Tucson on Tuesday to say Arizona's new employer sanctions law will have a devastating effect on the Mexican state.
At a news conference, the legislators said Sonora - Arizona's southern neighbor, made up of mostly small towns - cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools it will face as illegal Mexican workers here return to their hometowns without jobs or money.

Wear your Klan robe to school day
Back in 2009, Attorney General Eric Holder referred to the U.S. as a "nation of cowards". His exact quote was: "Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards." http://goo.gl/9OzD
A lot of criticism was made, especially by the Republicans about these remarks.
Ron Christie, a one-time domestic policy adviser to former President George W. Bush, said that for the nation's chief law enforcement officer to raise race issues "was wrong and it was very insulting to the American people."
Hilary Shelton of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People agreed that Holder's comments are "provocative."
Michelle Malkin wrote: "Holder doesn't want an honest dialogue about race. In the Age of [President] Obama, 'talking enough with each other about race' means the rest of us shutting up while being subjected to lectures about our insensitivity and insufficient integration on the weekends".
(All of these from CNN http://goo.gl/CY9H)
Now, let me say this from the start, I agree with Mr. Holder. A lot of us are afraid when it comes to discussions about race. But it's not because we are cowards. It's because we of the Caucasian persuasion are sick and tired of being called a racist every time we say something disparagingly about a "person of color" (speaking of which, why is "people of color" OK, but "colored people" not? And if black people don't like the term "colored people", then why not change the name to "National Association for the Advancement of African-Americans NAAAA? That sounds like a sheep bleating, which would be appropriate).
The newest flap is the kids in a Lumpkin county, GA High school being allowed to wear Klan robes, which were a part of a film about racism, in the school. http://goo.gl/kCJY
Now, if some of the stories going around were true, as kids wanting to re-enact a lynching using one black kid, I can agree with children and parents being upset. But some of the people were angry simply because the children were allowed to wear the robes. It's like: "You can produce a video about racism, but you can't show racism". "We want more stories about how bad racism is, but you can't show how bad racism is, if you do, you're racist." The Klan is a part of history. Both black and white.
This also goes for the criticism of any black person, for any reason. Black people are only criticized because they're black. Black people never commit crimes, they are never unethical, never corrupt. They are only accused of these crimes because of their color. To say that white people don't like Barack Obama because he's black is OK, but to suggest that blacks voted for him for the same reason is racist.
This also goes for the latino community and Arizona's anti-immigration law. The only reason you want to keep illegals out is because they're Hispanic.(another term is "indigenous red-brown peoples" http://goo.gl/YQKl We can just say "IRBP").
The IRBP are upset because Americans do not want them in the country illegally (that would be the IIIRBP, "illegal immigrant indigenous red-brown peoples"), so what they do is accuse every anti-immigration law or supporter of being anti-Latino (ie: racist).
Until either blacks, Hispanics, IRBP, Asians (what became of orientals?) and anyone else who isn't white stop accusing whites of racism every time they fart in the wrong direction, or the whites stand up and call bullshit when they are accused, we as a nation will be afraid to discuss race.

17 more states planning Ariz. 'illegal' crackdown
In what is developing into a standoff between states and the federal government that could be bigger than gun control or even health care, 17 states have launched versions of Arizona's immigration law, even as federal officials say they may not bother to process illegal aliens caught by the states.

On immigration, Obama backs Mexico, not Arizona
When President Obama discussed the new Arizona immigration law with Mexican President Felipe Calderon at the White House Wednesday, he was doing something he has never done with the governor of Arizona. Although Obama has repeatedly criticized the law, he has not once talked about it with Gov. Jan Brewer, nor is any such discussion in the works.

Remembering John McCain's 2008 Campaign Adviser -- Open Borders Pal Juan Hernandez, Erstwhile Revolutionary and Virulent Anti-Semite
"John McCain was a terrible -- terrible -- candidate for president in 2008. He advocated cap-and-trade to deal with the non-existent warmal colding scam; he tried to shove amnesty for illegal immigrants down our throats; he tried to destroy freedom of speech with McCain-Feingold; he was one of the 'Gang of 14' that let Democrats illegally filibuster conservative judicial nominees; and he couldn't articulate a coherent sentence during the campaign ('Heh, heh... my friends'). And he certainly doesn't understand the Constitution and the principles of our founding."
Congressman McClintock’s Response to President Calderon (delivered on House floor) : Stop The ACLU
"I rise to take strong exception to the speech of the President of Mexico while in this chamber today.
The Mexican government has made it very clear for many years that it holds American sovereignty in contempt and President Calderon’s behavior as a guest of the Congress confirms and underscores this attitude."

“This Law Will Make Me Feel Like a Nazi” - Arizona Cop
When I posted a request for people in Arizona interested in doing short interviews about their opinions on SB 1070, I expected a few angry or frustrated responses on the subject matter. I got one response which I must admit I read with skepticism. It read:

Obama administration’s official position agrees with AZ immigration-enforcement law
While the Obama administration continues its apology tour in China and uses the Arizona immigration-enforcement law as fodder for some bowing and scraping, the Department of Justice may need to scrape some egg off of its face. Attorney General Eric Holder admitted that he hadn’t actually read the bill before criticizing it, but it turns out that he needs to catch up on reading at the DoJ, too. The Washington Postreports that the Obama administration has yet to withdraw a Bush-era memo that acknowledges the authority of states to do exactly what the Arizona law mandates:

4 Immigration Issues That Are Too Hot To Handle
Despite the fact that immigration is vitally important to our nation's future, it has become impossible to have an honest conversation about the issue. There's simply too much fear of falsely being called a racist or of offending some key political demographic for people to discuss the subject. That has to change and it starts right here.

Moonbat Educator: California is “Occupied Mexico”
Just in case you were afraid that your tax dollars might be going to waste on teachers’ salaries, just listen to Ron Gochez, a history teacher in the “Occupied territories of Mexico” (California) who wants to “change the paradigm of the whole discussion”.
Hmmm. Seems to me that a very wise man once said that liberals want to change the “paradigm” whenever the facts aren’t on their side!

So solly: Apologizing For Arizona to the Chineese
[Assistant Secretary of State Michael] Posner said in addition to talks on freedom of religion and expression, labor rights and rule of law, officials also discussed Chinese complaints about problems with U.S. human rights, which have included crime, poverty, homelessness and racial discrimination.
He said U.S. officials did not whitewash the American record and in fact raised on its [sic] own a new immigration law in Arizona that requires police to ask about a person's immigration status if there is suspicion the person is in the country illegally.
