Unreal. The illegals want granny and grandpa dead so they can get their social security, medicare and through much higher estate taxes - their retirement money.
Almost all the bad behavior I have seen has been on the liberal side, but the MSM is falling all over itself looking for incidents where conservatives are behaving badly.
So far most of the incidents they “find” turn out not to be that case at all.
Some of Sotomayor’s clan.....how quaint.
This video is unbelievable. Every white American should be shown this.
I wonder if Katie Couric will comment on the abhorent behavior of this La Raza member as she commented about the guy who brought the gun to the Obama town hall. (He was completely legal in doing so, but of course, this La Raza’s members assault of a health care “reform” protestor was not.)
bttt
Why would illegals want to hinder the protest of Obamacare???
There is nothing in it for them!!
I just do NOT understand???!!
Mexican political practices invade United States, natives enthusiastically attempt to put up resistance, broo-ha-ha results.
www.numbersusa.com has a bunch of preprinted letters about stopping illegal immigration, not giving free health care to illegals, keeping job for Americans, etc; they will fax them for free to your Senators and Representatives, with your name on them.
Maybe it is time for another Mexican/American war??? sarc.
Ummmmm.......I think the punk should take some more English classes. He only seems to know ONE word. *rolls eyes*
All in all, I'd say this is the case of a stupid thug getting in over his head, and allowing his emotions to get the best of him. Sure the protesters baited him, but he should have walked away.
OMG
I’d be mad as hell too, folks. But you are in TEXAS, NOT Illinois! Why were you not armed and ready for these thugs. You know they exist and will appear wherever and whenever a camera is around, or a group they want to intimidate. Why were you not armed and ready??!!
My Congressional representatives and the next opposition candidate to Obama had better have a good plan for ending illegal immigration.
I just saw part of this, but one of the people involved is the same supergenius here:

And, I’m going to guess that the use of “La Raza” is a bit broad and that whatever group is involved is not the one that Sonia was a member of:

Please see the note at the end of that summary pointing out that confusing them with other groups etc. only helps them.
Just to add insult to injury!

Interpreting the bill
English-language advocates say proposed health care reform plans would add billions to Medicare costs by providing on-site interpreters for low-income people with limited English skills who seek medical treatment.
They are objecting to language included in the House bill that would authorize the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct a study to figure out how to properly employ interpreters and pay them through the Medicare system.
The language to do this is found in Section 1221 of America’s Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009, which instructs the secretary of health and human services to determine the “feasibility of adopting a payment methodology for on-site interpreters, including interpreters who work as independent contractors and interpreters who work for agencies that provide on-site interpretation, pursuant to which such interpreters could directly bill Medicare for services provided in support of physician office services for an LEP Medicare patient.”
K.C. McAlpin, executive director of ProEnglish, a national organization that supports making English the official language of the United States, said, “In light of the fact that the Medicare program already faces $38 trillion in unfunded liabilities according to the most recent trustees’ report, and is predicted to be bankrupt in a few years, adding an entitlement to free translation services is unbelievably irresponsible.”
He added that such a measure “is bad public policy” because it removes incentives for immigrants to learn English and could increase liabilities for medical providers because of translation errors.
This is not the government’s first effort to give people who don’t speak English translator accommodations. An executive order signed by President Clinton in August 2000 said that under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 people who don’t speak English must be given “meaningful access” to services provided by federal agencies, which includes Medicare and Medicaid.
California has extended the burden of providing and paying for medical translators to insurers. State law now requires that in-state insurance companies provide interpreters for patients who don’t speak English without any additional charges or fees.
