"Blacks and Latinos are often united on social and political issues. But they often differ when it comes to immigration."

Can't have it both ways.

Amazing and ironic. The shoe is now on the other foot.

He complained that immigrants are making it harder for Americans to keep good jobs, especially blacks.

You asked for it you, got it, vote demo.

This is going to get ugly. Popcorn?

Ironic note NOBODY in the democrat party is making to their mouthpieces in the US MSM......

The MORE (legal + illegal) migrant labor in the US, the LOWER the wages paid to those (legal + illegal) laborers in the US, and the LONGER the (legal) migrant workers have to wait for their (legal) lower-paying jobs.

So, now tell me WHY the repubbies aren't discussing this point?

Keep good jobs? Do Mexicans make better telephone salesmen? Is it hard for a black person to hold down a job at Walmart? Very interesting.

A few years ago I predicted that within a decade we'd see one of the more remarkable about-faces on the national policital scene -- when a majority of black voters and elected leaders oppose affirmative action. It's amazing how quickly the whole political scene changed once Hispanics passed blacks as the largest minority in the country.

" You asked for it you, got it,..."

That's right. Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it.

Doh! Oh really? You mean you actually are getting it now? Why not take your ire to the source of the problem, THE WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT? Or better yet, start a BLACK vigilante (to coin a Presidential phrase) gang to operate along the border...you might be surprised at the support you get!!

I did several searches under each title and came up with nothing, so I posted everything.

..the Democratic Party's whole world is based on pitting people against each other and programming into them a permanent victim mentality.

The monster which they have created has turned on them...

I remember reading a hysterical article in this freebie far-left university-city rag about this writer's personal exploration of black-hispanic relations in his community. So he drives down to some run down part of town and tries to interview some of the native-born citizenry that's hanging around about race relations. But he didn't have much to put in his article because he had to drive off, as they got a little hostile. Kind of like PBS meets Jerry Springer.

[dr_who_2]

Yes, that sort of stuff happens every 30-50 years or so.

Someone should make up bumper stickers in the vain of "Buy American" and put on them "Hire Americans"...

Hoo boy. The Crips and the Bloods all over again. 8^)

I like the idea of supporting any valid movement by blacks to address the common problem.

It just seems like its all nuts and kooks in the black leadership, with a few notable exceptions.

However when I see Durbin's thinly veiled attempt to bury cutsie amendments in the bills, I know that there are a bunch of white ones floating around.

I hope Swann and Blackman do well.

Compton, CA was fun to watch when blacks tried to hold onto "do nothing" government jobs after the hispanics became the majority. The screeching from both sides became deafening while the decline of the city accelerated to an absolute "no go" zone.

[Mikey]

So you believe there's absolutely no problems whatsoever along the border's? I guess we should just open the borders wide open and let anyone and everyone waltz right in?

I guess your job and future is all set and you haven't anything to worry about? After all YOU got yours.

[bill1952]

I don't think that that was his point. Maybe I'm wrong
