Was watching CNN at 4:00 this afternoon. They had a preview of tonight's CNN presents that deals with the issue of illegal immigration.

While talking to Kelli Arena at the news desk, Maria Hinojosa mentioned the growing tension between residents in Georgia and what she called "undocumented workers." Arena caught her and brought up the fact that use of the word "undocumented workers" was controversial. Ms. Hinojosa then said the fact that some Americans refer to "undocumented workers" as "illegal aliens" was similar to the way that Jews were thought of as "illegal" in Nazi Germany, which led to the Holocaust.

Some troll FReepmailed me the other day with the same "immigration control = Nazism" argument.

My, but we had a good time batting him around.

CNN's Maria Hinojosa compares foes of illegal immigration to Nazis

Then, by Godwin's Law, she has forfeited the entire discussion.

The Leftists criminalize free speech, criminalize religion, criminalize gun ownership, and criminalize home schooling. But we're the Nazis.

Hypocrisy, thy name is Democrat!

I saw this yesterday or the day before and no one wanted to challenge Hinojosa. Arena asked a couple of questions but in the end they all looked a Hinojosa as some sort of hero. I also found it odd that in one clip Hinojosa was using an interpreter. Does she affect that slight accent to show how connected she is to her heritage?

Why don't you tune to Fox and drop CNN's ratings by another 5%?

Nothing is "illegal" when it applies to a commie-dem. But let a conservative challenge a lib when he lies, and it is "hate speech"!

Skrew them all!

"...goes inside the lives of four families on the front lines of the growing debate over illegal immigration.

Ms. Hinosa, why don't you inspect the lives of the families changed in my community this morning because of your wonderful, pitiful, undocumented criminals. Huh? I can't hear you. That's alright, I don't want to hear you.

Lets see....
Hitler was a Socialist.
"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler May 1, 1927

Hitler was Pro-Abortion.
Hitler was Pro-Euthanasia.
Hitler was Pro-Homosexual.
Hitler was Pro-Animal Rights.
Hitler was Pro-Environment (a greenie)
Hitler was Anti-Tobacco.
Hitler was Anti-Christian.


Does that agenda SOUND FAMILIAR?? (Don't forget W is a huge supporter of Israel, while the Left supports Palestine)

http://constitutionalistnc.tripod.com/hitler-leftist/

Recall that Hitler and Stalin invaded Poland together in 1939....

Don't let the Left get away with the "Republicans are Nazis" anymore!!!!! Some of you ask...why do they try to attach something so vile and negative that has nothing to do with our party?

"Members and front organizations must continually embarrass, discredit and degrade our critics … when obstructionists become too irritating, label them as fascist or Nazi or anti-Semitic … Constantly associate those who oppose us with those names that already have a bad smell. The association will, after enough repetition, become 'fact' in the public mind."

--CCCP 1943

Well, illegal aliens are here illegally, they are breaking the law, and that makes them criminals as far as I'm concerned.

I don't care what Elie Wiesel or Ms. Hinojosa has to say about the matter.

If wanting folks to obey the rule of law and have respect for our immigration system. Control who enters my country. Not wanting to spend BILLIONS of dollars on "illegal" when my own mother is looking at losing her house because of medical expenses which are high- in part of which is because she is ofsetting the cost of these "illegal thieve's" who use emergency rooms for doctor's office's makes me a Nazi--"wunderbar--Ich bin ein Nazi".

All of the obvious comments have already been made so let me approach this from a different angle.
Will we hear from the ADL about Hinojosa's proposition or will they let it slide?

I bitch and complain about a bunch of criminal scum and possible terrorists invading our precious country via the southern border and you want to call me a Nazi?

Ok!

You can call me anything you want. But if we don't stop this illegal invasion, it won't make any difference.

I'm watching in now Asa Hutchinson is on and trying to explain the lack of enforcement. She brought Asa on right after an American said "where's my homeland security?"

Made me chuckle.

Turned it on late but seems very pro-alien. She has only talked to 2 white guys for the anti-alien pov. They were middle-aged and a bit overweight. The guy she's talking to the most isn't a very effective speaker but he is raising some good points. On the whole it's not as bad as I guessed but it's bad.

It's back on, I'll give a report in about 20 mins.
