Immigration advocates, labor unions and civil rights activists in North Texas have joined a nationwide campaign in favor of legalizing the nation's undocumented work force.

African-Americans and Labor Unions are the only groups dumb enough to celebrate and welcome the people who want to steal their livlihoods.

"Immigrant workers are demanding fairness and to be respected," Gonzalez said.

Our country has truly gone mad.

[Consort]

How many potential votes are we talking about. Enough to make us lose power?

[Age of Reason]

This is a disgrace.

The authorities should stop those buses and immediately deport the illegal occupants.

"Immigrant workers are demanding fairness and to be respected," Gonzalez said.

You conveniently left off the word "illegal," Gonzalez. You want fairness? You want respect? For starters, stop making "demands." You have no right to "demand" anything. Respect must be earned. Come into the country legally. Then you'll get "respect" and "fairness." To sneak across the borders illegally, and then demand "respect," is like robbing a bank and then demanding to be treated like a valued customer. Go to h**.

"Legalization and A Road to Citizenship

Just as the Freedom Rides of the early 1960’s exposed the brutality of legal segregation in the South, the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride will expose the injustice of current policies toward immigrants. "

This "freedom trip" is given a prominent link in the upper lefthand corner of www.cpusa.org (commie website) right ABOVE Moveon.org.

In communist party facts (on the website): "Our Party is a consistent fighter for the unity of our multiracial, multinational, male-female, young and old working class. Our unity must cross all lines of religion, region, and origin. It must encompass immigrants, both legal and undocumented, the unemployed and homeless."

I wonder how many do-gooders supporting this freedom ride ACTUALLY understand what they're REALLY supporting?

"...a nationwide campaign in favor of legalizing the nation's undocumented work force. "

Does that mean just the 8 million criminals who have already broken into our country AND the half million moving this way because of this talk AND the 3 million who would crowd in before some date written in sand AND the five million who would break into our country AFTER the phantom date and claim they were here before that date?

I simply don't understand how American blacks can support this. The wetbacks are displacing blacks. Black ex-cons and high school drop outs will never get entry level jobs so long as there are wetbacks to train. Unions are after the dues and dems are after the votes but there is no rational reason for the nation to consider amnesty. If we want cheap labor, grant a new class of visa to the NEXT million knocking on the border. Don't reward crimnality especially when there is nothing positive in it for us. This is a liberal issue and must be opposed.

Oh, I thought this was a California activity. Sorry to learn it has spread to other states.

"President Bush promised it to them, and he hasn't followed through," said Jimmy Conway, president of the United Auto Workers Local 276 in Arlington.

Actually, that's not exactly true. He "promised" Vicente Fox he would discuss options. That alone was enough to make my blood boil.

"Immigrant workers are demanding fairness and to be respected," Gonzalez said.

Law-abiding American citizens are demanding fairness and respect for existing immigration laws. We want you "immigrant workers" criminal invaders sent back to where you came from.

We're just not making enough noise about it.

Yet.

[Missouri]

united a diverse group -- auto workers, African-Americans, Muslim immigrants and the Catholic Diocese of Dallas -

What a group (sarcasm). I bet the rank-and-file auto-workers aren't thrilled about this, only the corrupt union heads. African-Americans? I bet the average black isn't to thrilled either. As for the Muslims, well amnesty would make it easier for one of their terrorist allies to blow up something here. And as for the Catholic Church, where do I start.

[Age of Reason]

some 18 buses carrying about 900 activists and immigrant workers will embark

Seems to me the owners of those buses must be breaking some law when they knowingly transport illegal invaders about the country.

The whole convoy should probably be arrested.

[GatekeeperBookman]

I am sure it has been done-but I shall send this to the Fair & other such groups. Just to be sure.

[repentant_pundit]

These "workers" must be getting some great perks from their "employers" - such as 2 WEEKS OFF TO TRAVEL in this parade of whining, lawbreaking victim-class warriors.

Freepers must be planning to Freep these rallies, right ?

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

This nonsense of illegals coming here to work is just a smokescreen.If they really wanted to work all they had to do was sit and wait on their front porch because all our manufacturing jobs were and are GOING TO THEM!Even if they were coming here to work they still have NO RIGHT TO BE HERE.

[freekitty]

More buses carrying more people.
