Katrina Vanden Heuvel: Tancredo a 'White Supremacist'
Nation magazine publisher Katrina Vanden Heuvel said Sunday that illegal immigration foe, Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., is animated by a "white supremacist" philosophy - and insisted that illegals are "the backbone of this country."
Following the Colorado Republican on ABC's "This Week," Vanden Heuvel told host George Stephanopoulos:
"Tancredo, on your show today - he looked pleasant. But I will say that what's happened in our country is that some of the white supremacist thinking that used to be represented by David Duke has been absorbed by people like Tancredo."
Vanden Heuvel called the House immigration reform bill backed by Tancredo "very dangerous," "draconian" and "un-American," before praising the illegal population:
"Undocumented immigrants are the backbone of this economy," she told "This Week." "They do the suburban lawns in this country. They take care of the kids. The economy in this country would be in real trouble [without illegal immigrants.]"

Yep, Tancredo is suspect for having the gaul to think he should have a right to a culture too. Damn him! /s
If you want to sue her for slander, Tom, I'll donate to the lawyer fund.
Read; don't take away my cheap illegal hired maids and servants.
Mexicans are now the backbone of our nation? Wow, and the 65-70% that are white Katrina Vanden Heuvel, what are they, the anus? No dear, you and your fellow travelers are.

Katrina, I take care of MY OWN KIDS and my OWN YARD, unlike your rich leftist friends.
Darn. I thought I was among the backbone of America. Too bad for me, I'm one of those nasty natives. Born and bred American.
Substitute "slaves" for undocumented immigrants and "the South" for this country.
Todd Rundgren?
Translation: "In ten years when they are all legalized, they will be the new backbone of the dominant 'rat/socialist party."
This is how it's going to happen, mark my words. This is what the 'rats are counting on. If we don't wake up to this fact, we don't deserve our country.
Fernando Ortiz was a ‘landscape engineer’ on Long Island who had demanded to be able to vote, on the basis that he had been paying state and federal taxes for ten years. Actually, he had been stopped from casting a ballot by a poll watcher who had suspected his citizenship status, and (illegally, as it turned out) demanded proof of his identity and legal qualification to vote. Ortiz had won a multi-million dollar settlement against the Republican Party of New York in the subsequent “racial profiling and ethnic intimidation” civil suit, but he did not stop there.
Instead, with massive support from the ACLU and various Hispanic “immigrants rights” foundations, he had pressed his demand to be allowed to vote all the way to the Supreme Court…and he won. The Supreme Court, in its famous 5-4 decision, ruled that negligence in securing America’s borders against illegal immigration on the part of the federal government, could not be held against “undocumented workers who played by the rules and paid their taxes,” once they were established in America—legally or not. The federal government had not taken reasonable efforts to secure the border, and had not pursued "undocumented workers" in the USA. Instead, it openly permitted them most of the benefits of citizenship, and it collected their taxes. "No taxation without representation!" was the cry heard all the way to the Supreme Court. The State of New York had then sleep-walked through an aimless and desultory case for denying the vote—and citizenship—to “undocumented workers.”
Following Ortiz v. New York, a stunned America woke up to discover that there were not only an amazing twenty-two million illegal aliens hiding in plain sight across the land, but that eight million of them immediately qualified to vote. In a nation split 50-50 down party and ideological lines, these eight million new voters were recognized to be the certain majority-makers in future elections, and both parties set record lows for cravenness in pandering to their “needs.” Chief among their “needs” were liberal new family reunification laws, and these instant citizens—illegal aliens only a year before—began bringing the remainders of their families to the USA. Legally.
Overnight, wavering Democrat states became locks, and swing states with large Hispanic populations went solidly “blue.” The result was the recent election which had brought Gobernador Deleon to power in Nuevo Mexico, and had also brought radical Democrats to power in the White House and both houses of congress.
Thus had come the political tsunami which swept all before it, a tidal wave triggered by an undocumented lawn maintenance worker named Fernando Ortiz.
The economy in this country would be in real trouble [without illegal immigrants.]"
According to her and her lefty orgy posse I thought the economy in this country is in real trouble. I wish they would make up their mind as to whether Bush ruined the economy or he didn't. I guess it just depends on which argument they are in.
"There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism.
The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of
squabbling nationalities." - Pres Theodore Roosevelt
Katrina is clever only in her own mind and is her own best fan.

Nothin' but a trust-fund lefty.
We have to STOP giving the Left the power of the "racist" taunt. As long as nothing is worse than being called a racist, they will always have that nuclear weapon over us. We need to get on top of the argument by showing that believing in the inherent self-determination and strength of any American of any shape or color, trumps pity and enslavery any time. Only ONE political side is TRULY using the race card and it aint us.
Officially it's Broke Back Mountain but should be Bump Rump Mounting.
