That's life in the "new America". According to George Bush, this may be exactly what he wants as he extolls the wonders of the hispanic culture.
We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.
Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.
For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.
George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.
"Hiring illegal immigration is a modern form of virtual slavery."
Piffle. Living in the Southwest all my life I've encountered lots of illegals and none of them thought they were slaves. They endured a great deal of discrimination, but they worked hard for the sake of their families back home, and never lost their pride.
And most of them ended up learning quite a bit of English, even if it wasn't their first language.
Let them acclimatize, and their children will grow up being English-speakers (though they will still use Spanish at home).
We've lost 43 million people in this country in the last 30 years due to abortion; we can afford to gain 5 million from immigration--people who WORK, don't want to become generational welfare recipients, and who share conservative family values. (More Hispanics are voting Republican than ever before.)

His "Party"??
It's more like his puppet-masters of the The New World Order.
