I hope that Richwine lands on his feet. We need intellectual honesty about important issues.

It sounds to me like this guy is assuming that all recent immigrants are dirt-poor Mexican peasants crawling into the USA to take advantage of government handouts. But if the new amnesty bill passes, they’ll be flooding in from all over the world (including China). A blanket statement like his is just stupid. IQ varies from individual to individual, not from culture to culture. Generations ago they said the same thing about Irish immigrants, and Italian immigrants, and East European Jewish immigrants, etc.

Please read Mr. Richwine’s excellent article at the above link.

The Fiscal Cost of Unlawful Immigrants and Amnesty to the U.S. Taxpayer

Then email The Heritage Foundation to express your disappointment that they threw Mr. Richwine under the bus for telling the truth.

Me too.

Mexico is sending us it's most undesirable citizens, criminal insurgents etc to invade the USA to colonize it. No wonder they are the lower IQ types, the others are either "connected" or waiting for the grunts to finish the hard work of La Raza'ing our country and doing all they can to bring down the economy, then the "elites" will be set up to use the ones already here to support them as the conquerors.

  How low will supporters of the Gang of Eight immigration bill go to get their way? This low: They've shamelessly branded an accomplished Ivy League-trained quantitative analyst a "racist" and will stop at nothing to destroy his career as they pave their legislative path to another massive illegal alien benefits bonanza. Jason Richwine works for the conservative Heritage Foundation. He's a Harvard University Ph.D. who co-authored a study that pegs the cost of the Ted Kennedy Memorial Open Borders Act 2.0 legislation at $6.3 trillion. Lead author Robert Rector is a senior research fellow at Heritage, a former United States...

Does anyone in the GOP have a backbone

Whether he left on his own, or was pushed out...it just helps the Hispanic Ku Klux Klan and like groups pass Illegal Alien Amnesty

And they can kiss my underside if they don’t like the term Hispanic Ku Klux Klan

So DeMint threw Richwine under the bus?

[SharpRightTurn]

Truth and politics do not mix.

Richwine spoke an “inconvenient truth”, therefore he must pay the penalty.

[Zhang Fei]

Liberals like to talk about speaking truth to power. Richwine’s defenestration was an example of the establishment’s speaking power to truth.

Immigrant rights activists are upset over this? Really. All the janitors, dishwashers, car wash attendants, and fry cooks I see in my area are all of these gifted Mexican and Central American whiz kids. Please. Reality check here. We’re the dumping ground for half-literate and low-skilled individuals from those countries.
