The Morning Call
Speaking to the nations' largest Hispanic civil rights organization, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., received a standing ovation Monday when she vowed her support for legislation that would allow illegal immigrant high school students to attend college.
Clinton made her remarks on various issues of importance to the country's Latinos at the annual conference of National Council of La Raza, attended by 23,000 people at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia.
The event started Friday and has included a rally in center Philadelphia in support of the so-called DREAM Act that would benefit illegal students.
On Tuesday, the chairpersons of both the Republican and Democratic national committees are schedule to address the conference, which NCLR officials say is a first for the organization and a sign that both parties have heightened their interest in the growing Latino population and its votes.

I don't like that the "Latino" population pie chart doesn't include a "American Hispanic Citizen" slice. My family goes back to late 1700's/early 1800's South Texas, so they probably "came over" from what is now Central Mexico at some point way back, but I don't consider myself any of those slices because to me, "Mexican" means the same thing with regard to "Mexico" as "American" means to "America".
"breeding"?
Thats La Raza's pie chart, on their website.
I don't think they care about the American Hispanic citizen, that's not their angle.
Have you visted their website?
It's an eye opener.

Bookmarking for later reference.
I might have known. I went to their website recently because another FReeper was trying to tell me that I was being too hard on them. There was nothing there to convince me I was wrong, although they're starting to get wise to the scrutiny they're under and are working harder to dress up their anti-American policies.
yes, much of their more radical stuff is in Espanol.
Note their solidarity with Palestinians. I kid you not:

"La Raza as Palestinians"
"There are great similarities between the political and economic condition of the Palestinians in occupied Palestine and that of La Raza in the southwest United States. Fortunately, the struggle for equality by La Raza has not reached the level of violence that is now being experienced in the Holy Land and hopefully it never will. Some ominous signs, however, are manifesting themselves in Los Angeles County that may be a harbinger of things to come...." [snip]

FBD...Many thanks for posting the pic to the link I had provided earlier. Not being a technological html genius I haven't figured out how to post pics.
Also, I'm sure "Cultural Jihadist" will be please to learn that "they" only want California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and southern Colorado. Thus leaving America with access to the social and cultural benefits of Utah (Mormon Tabernacle Choir), Nevada (Area 51 and all of that "alien" technology), and Oregon (excellent upland bird hunting).
I stand corrected.
I am a lot like Agatha Christies' Miss Marple. I can look around in my own neighborhood and see the entire world situation in motion. Catholic leaders here are joyful, as they see the domination of their religion in a few years, through these Mexicans.
"and who is going to pay for this college Hitlery?"
Well, the Hildabeast has been quoted as saying "We may have to take some things away from you for the common good." She was refering specifically to the Bush tax cuts, but that was the most Marxist statement I have ever heard. It sent chills down my spine. That woman is scarey.
I believe CJ is liberal Catholic. Part of CJ's makeup is sympathy for the downtrodden, Nothing wrong with that, but she also apparently has sympathy for Islamists. She's more then a little crazy, IMO.
Take a look at some of the crazy things CJ says on this thread:

#51: "Next the Satanic Right will salivate at the idea of suspending the Constitution so that they can round up the infidels and force their conversions, and torture those they suspect of backsliding."
You can't have it both ways, though. You can't use the failure to assimilate as the reason to remove them from our society, because without governmental permission to stay there is really little to no incentive to assimilate.
That is a good point.
This person, whom you might recognize, has told me inposts that she was a devout Catholic.

I'm sure you've seen her comments on the illegal immigration threads.
Surprised?
I don't know how many devout liberal Catholics espouse this point of view, but frankly, I find it disturbing that any of them would.
Regards
Oh no, my first reason for removing them would be because they're here illegally. Abiding by the laws of the land is, in and of itself, part of assimilation.
Let's hope they don't assimilate as "law-abiding" UberKonservativs who cheat on their taxes and high-five each other whenever a Constimatooshunalist shoots and kills a policeman for infringing on his "right" to drive on a public road without a license.
Could you imagine if (.......) was (....) by a FALN Puerto Rican terrorist her husband let loose????
"advocacy groups for the members of their otherwise underserved communities, nothing more."
You really are progressive aren't you. I recently watch a vidoe about that sweet little "advocacy group" LaRaza hitting a grandmother in the head with a full coke can at a demnostration. Underserved my a** you race-baiting quisling.
