This is by design.

Bush pretty transparently made a play for hispanic votes in both elections, based on the notion that if only a couple percent shift to the GOP, we could lock in a permanent majority.

He did well among hispanics, comparatively speaking, both times.

We all see Bush as giving away the store on immigration issues, but the DNC has painted him as anti-hispanic, which we all know is the precise opposite of the truth. This is a DNC ploy, and it is having the desired effect of slowing the loss of catholic votes to the Repubs.

Imagration reality check

Seems to me everyone has missed the true cause of our current illegal immigration situation.
We need more young people in America.
Our Country is about 30 million shy on the younger generation. The USA is the oldest developed country that has ever survived.
The USA has an average age around 40 years old. Every other developing Country on this planets age comes in around 23.
We are dying out. In 30 years our population will be mostly dead or dying.We are not reproducing at a rate that can repopulate our Country.
Ever wonder why nothing, and I mean nothing is being done about the insane amount of people coming over our borders? This is NOT an accident, they are allowed in for a reason. The reason is, we need an influx of youth into America. We need these people to repopulate our Country, and as luck would have they are Catholic. What good fortune, they do not believe in abortion.
Like it or not Roe has caused this crisis. America has aborted it's future. Since its inexplicable inception Roe V Wade has removed 40 to 50 Million legal citizens from our population. This has directly led to the current illegal alien problem. The guys that run this Country /economy know we are in deep dodo.
I am not pro-abortion nor am I in the "everythimg must live" camp, but the facts are America has Pro-choiced it's self into oblivion.It will take another 20 years after Roe is overturned to correct this situation and make America whole.
I guess I will have to wait for History to prove me right, so be it. America is changing, the Mexicans are coming with their kids cause we refuse to. To every illegal in my country, thank you for keeping the dream alive through your children, because we are too sophisticated and smart to see the writing on the wall.
Ask not America for whom the border is breached, it's breached for any hope of a future.

Most Catholics do not agree with the bishops on this issue. We know that Cardinal Mahoney is a radical liberal, in theology as well as in politics. A few years ago, he tries to shut down Mother Angelica's television network. She kicked his a..but good, because JP2 was on her side.

Not a surprise at all. A lot of Freepers are surprised that Bush is a politician like any other and is alwas considering the vote tally in anything he does.

Bush did well amongst his homies in Texas and with Cubans in FL...which was to be expected.

but that big jump Rove and Gillespie drummed up in 2004 was simply a lie

discounted even by NRO ....hardly a reactionary rag

Hispanics are a very diverse group from Cubans to Puerto Ricans and East LA Mexicans.

The stats are already in as to where these Mexicans are going to vote and it's not good. Kali used to be solid R.
