If a white hispanic could not speak spanish then what would be the difference? I know many Central Americans who identify as white more than I do, and the amount of European blood they actually have can only fill a thimble. But I love the way they title the article to gain maximum attention, ignoring the fact that the black population remained flat as well. More diverting attention away from the fact that the border is as porous as swiss cheese.

Out of curiosity, have you noticed that compared to other states, you hear very little bitching about the border from Texans? It's true, even on FR, Texas is a state with a large hispanic population, a large FR presence, and you'll find very little bitching about hispanics by Texans.

And many around here still can't understand why (the not to be outdone big-spender budget buster) Bush is out-pandering the Democrats to this non-white segment with all of our tax-payer money he can get his hands on (and our grandchildrens mortgaged future as well).
