"But the Buchanan/Tancredo devotees are so filled with hatred of Mexican immigrants that they will embrace any propaganda to legitimize their feelings."
You must be a leftwinger, because that is a typical liberal tactic -- if you disagree in the slightest with the pro-unending mass immigration enthusiasts then it must be because you hate Mexicans, or immigrants in general.
It can't possibly be for any rational reason can it? No, its because we hate Mexicans. Ted Kennedy would be proud. Thanks for letting me know that, because here I was thinking that my opposition to mass immigration had to do with reasons relating to history, the economy, politics, etc. But now I know its because I hate Mexicans.
Whatever
I see you also insist on using the term 'Mexican immigrants' when it should be 'illegal Mexican immigrants.' Don't tell me you've also adopted the leftwing tactic of forever removing the word 'illegal' when speaking of illegal aliens.
Now exactly what hate-filled rhetoric has Tancredo used when speaking of 'Mexican immigrants'? What about Buchanan?
Its my guess that your idea of hate filled speech is in reality a expression of what happens to be mainstream, majority American views on immigration.
Then why don't you make those arguments? Why don't you tell us what the economic impact would be on our economy if 10 million employees were suddenly eliminated. Why don't you explain the history of immigration in America? Why don't you examine the political influence of labor unions in opposing immigrant laborers?
Remember the Buchanan ads four years ago about the man choking to death on a meatball because the 911 operator was bilingual? What did a man choking have to do with history or economics or politics?
