Politics: Barack Obama tells "The Race" that U.S. law enforcement officers are terrorists and that communities that enforce immigration laws are vigilantes. But then, that's exactly what La Raza believes.
In Orwellian fashion, defenders of "La Raza" deny that it means "the race." San Francisco Chronicle writer Carla Marinucci says of Obama's appearance before the group's national convention in San Diego that Obama "embraced the ideas reflected in the organization's name, La Raza, loosely translated as 'the people.' "
A very loose translation it is. Why not use "la comunidad" or "la gente" when speaking about the Latino people and community? Because La Raza wants to be called La Raza, and they known exactly what it means to them.
La Raza has ties it refuses to condemn with the likes of MECHa, a group that has spent the last three decades indoctrinating Latino students on American campuses, claiming the states of California, Arizona, Mexico, Texas and southern Colorado were stolen and should be returned to their rightful owners, the people of Mexico.
MECHa's slogan is derived from the rhetoric of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro: "Through the race, everything, outside the race, nothing." Obama hopes the road to the White House leads through La Raza.

identity politics originating with fidel castro.
Oh, this is freekin great.
I think it was the next day, or maybe the previous day.
Whenever it was, I am grossly offended by the notion, much less the fact, that either Presidential candidate would even acknowledge these radical, separatist potential terrorists.
Well, if they can deny La Raza means The Race, we can easily deny that the hateful rhetoric is not hateful. Problem solved.
Well, we know what Terry will talk abpout...
I wonder if there was any video...
La Raza is the KKK of Mexico, when will we outlaw it here
"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."Letter to the American Defense Society on January 3, 1919
Freudian slip?
What did he do on his Pakistan sojourn in the 1980s?
La Raza may be bad but McCain went there to get their votes - votes at any cost.
Exactly.
I’d like to see that for myself.
I second that.
Jebus, people! Why all the McCain bashing? I know he’s sorry when it come to illegals, but has he said or done anything THIS bad???
Obama’s earlier speech to La Raza:
Obama said the recent Senate immigration debate “was both ugly and racist in a way we haven’t see since the struggle for civil rights.”
Obama told La Raza that the mass protests lately for immigration rights of Mexicans is equal in greatness to the civil rights protest of the past!
“I walked the walk. I talked the talk. I marched with you for “civil rights” of “immigrants”. (!!)

Omama supports La Raza’s, the “DREAM Act,” which would mandate states to offer in-state tuition rates to illegal aliens — thus providing them with benefits not available to U.S. citizens from other states. He tried to get Swartzenagger to support it!
Obama SHAMELESSLY pimps illegal aliens. Absolutely shameful- considering the additional violent crime, third word diseases they bring into this country and the billions of dollars it cost us to take care of them.

I was invited to see Los Lobos and Los Lonely Boys here
in Seattle (Redmond actually) and wonder if they are in
the tank for him. I like their stuff but refuse to attend
musical political rallies for the empty suit chameleon.
I can’t bear to hear anyone speaking for him. I can’t bear to hear him speak. I change the channel.
We have to ramp this up for November as a big backlash to the GOP and the Democrat Socialist and say NO!! NO MORE.
They will listen when the polls start to show the American people waking up and moving in our direction, where they are already politically on this issue, and not with Osama or Scarface.
bttt
It’s simple. If you’re not going to vote for McCain or Obama (why anyone would want to vote for that idiot is beyond me), then find a third party candidate and vote. Don’t sit on your butt and wait use that to “punish” McCain for not being the candidate you want. You have a vote. Use it.
“Jebus, people! Why all the McCain bashing? I know hes sorry when it come to illegals, but has he said or done anything THIS bad???”
YES. Frankly, it is expected of a Dimocrat. McCain, on the other hand, traitorously cross the isle to join forces with the likes of TED KENNEDY and the Dimocrat party in order to introduce legislation that would destroy our sovereignty and security and risk our losing the war on terror in our own backyards. Unforgivable.
McCain deserves no free pass.
is there an echo in here? ;-)
Just backing you up.

If we had a patriot running (and Vietnam Service does not ensure love of patria/homeland, ask John Kerry), one who gives a damn about our survival our culture and history, we could take advantage of the unassimilated foreigner/red diaper baby running for president as a Democrat. Instead, we are stuck with Juan Hernandez toady.
