Yea, I’m thinking of a different battle. The Foreign Legion was heading through Pueblo a year later, but got hit shortly before and that’s where they made their stand.

Too bad Zachary Taylor didn’t finish the job.

Leaders of Alianza, a Latino student group

Do you think whites will ever just tell these groups to Go F Themselves? Or will ever quit playing this one way race game?

I'm offended by their being offended for being offended.

Offensensitivity

That’s really racist. Are they saying that if only Mexicans drank Swedish vodka they wouldn’t have lost the SW United States? Perhaps the Mexicans aren’t aware that the French now own Absolut Vodka. That’s a real slap given the true meaning of Cinco de Mayo.

There is a two fold irony in the blacks and fried chicken association.

1. Fried chicken is good. I love KFC and so do a whole lot of people.

2. Early in this countries history chicken was expensive. So having a black eat a fried chicken was showing blacks above their proper station in life. IIRC it comes from the movie Birth of a Nation.

I think they are trying to sell Vodka by appealing to the Mexican consumer -- Imagine, in a perfect world: AZTLAN

It's enough to make one puke. I don't often drink vodka, but when I do, I never drink Absolut. Stay thirsty, my friend.

Al Capp (he of "L'il Abner" comic fame) had these types pegged way back in 1969:

"Hola Amigos! Some uptight college broads are calling us "culturally insensitive" because we like wearing sombreros, eating the tacos and drinking the tequila. To them we say "conseguir una vida!"

You are the most interesting man in the world!

The two Alianza presidents who signed the letter are not Mexican, according to The Daily Northwestern. Their recommendations were quite a shock to Northwestern students who actually came from Mexico.

LOL - love it!

Never knew that good food of any kind was racial.

The only bad thing about fried chicken is what eating it does to my weight.

My wife & I wanted to try tandoori chicken. An Indian chef’s youtube vid showed us how but he observed that dark meat is costlier in India because it’s moister & has more flavor than white meat, which is more expensive here. Interesting paradox.

ASG President, Ajiht, has a Hindu surname. It always amuses me when some SDS-wannabe group presumes the moral superiority to speak for ‘minority’ groups, even when the minority group is not offended.

perhaps I might wear France’s colors on Cinco De Mayo just to make a point?

El Matadores, and el Torito, their midget sidekick (OH HECK! Did I say midget? Now I gotta wash my mouth out with soap! I meant VERTICALLY CHALLENGED) I know wrestling's fake, but is Alianza aware of this? This would really push them over the deep end ;)
