I look at it all like this: The enemedia has won.
They have successfully turned the debate from a legal issue into a racial issue. The words, "Illegal immigrant," has become synonymous with the words, "Anti-hispanic." Which is exactly what they wanted to happen.
Now, it's OUR job to reverse this.

I have yet to hear or see any media source calling for the term "wetback" to be brought back into use, yet I see it used here on FR by otherwise respectable FReepers.
