What Karl Rove Should Tell La Raza

White House adviser Karl Rove is scheduled to speak tomorrow at the annual conference of the federally funded, left-wing, open-borders-advocacy group, the National Council of La Raza.

If he does not want his speech to look like an act of appeasement, he should confront La Raza on its opposition to commonsense policies designed to secure both U.S. borders and U.S. pocketbooks.

La Raza, which means “The Race” in Spanish, has denounced as “horrendous” and “appalling” the House immigration bill passed in December, which was sponsored by Judiciary Chairman James Sensenbrenner (R.-Wis.) and supported by the overwhelming majority of House Republicans. The bill, which calls for tough worksite enforcement of immigration laws and 700 miles of border fencing, was condemned by La Raza as a “laundry list of mean-spirited and intrusive provisions concocted by the most radical immigrations restrictionists in Congress.”

Will Rove defend the immigration reforms passed by President Bush’s party in the House and tell La Raza that House Republicans are neither “mean-spirited” nor “radical”? He should. House Republicans deserve Rove’s support.

It scares me when our national leadership who are supposed to protect us from invasion are attending conferences by groups that are anti-American,supports the break up of the United Staes and supports an illegal act and felonious act(when illegal immigrants cross the border its an illegal act).That says to me that they do not care.

[garbageseeker]

Remember what happened to Sandy Wells when he tried to cover that La Raza school in East Los Angeles.

I'm concerned about that and more. CIA, State, it seems we never got rid of Clinton.

[garbageseeker]

It seems that the Clinton influence is very deep in Washington DC. Look, it has even affected the President of the United States

BS Atwater was in more black Churches than Bill Clinton ever was.

There is a big difference between black churches and racist organizations such as La Raza.

More than that.....it tells me that the agenda of the speakers and the agenda of the conference groups are the same.

I noticed that there was not any coverage in the MSM on Senator's Browback visit to La Raza.

[kellynla]

If you are close to your TV, FOX News is about to cover Rove's appearance before La Raza.

[Kimberly GG]

FOX NEWS just about to report on Rove/LaRaza (after commercial break)

[garbageseeker]

I agree.

I don't think I saw any either. did you see the photos here?

The number of illegals already in the country will not go down as a result of a functioning guest worker program, but look at it this way.

If your basement was filling up with water, what would you do first?

Try bailing the water already in there, or stop new water from coming in so you can then address the flood?

So we have two different problems that need to be addressed differently...we need to enact effective policy to regain control of border crossings, then we need to do something about the people already here illegally.

That's the tougher of the two problems to deal with.

[Luis Gonzalez]

"...but what's his plan to FIX the border?"

A guest worker program.

What's so hard to understand about that?

Sorry, but 'Lucy' has pulled that football too many times.

Give Dubya's past record for enforcing our immigration laws, nobody can realistically think anything will change. That's with either a 'D' or 'R' in office.

looks like the bombings in India have pushed the Rove/La Raza story to the next half hour...

here it is!
