NEW YORK (CNN) -- We all awoke to headlines in our nation's most important newspapers reminding us that this is "A Day Without Immigrants." Not illegal immigrants, mind you, but immigrants.

USA Today headlined today's demonstrations and boycott "On Immigration's Front Lines." The New York Times headlines its story "With Calls for Boycott by Immigrants, Employers Gird for Unknown." The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times are both calling their coverage "The Immigration Debate."

These major newspapers obviously don't want to disturb their readers with the information that today's demonstrations and boycott are about illegal immigration and amnesty for illegal aliens.

Dobbs will be on Larry King tonight 9pm ET talking about Illegal Immigrants.

[heat02]

Dobbs vs Frist!!!

[FairOpinion]

"Dobbs will be on Larry King tonight 9pm ET talking about Illegal Immigrants."

Thanks for letting us know.

I just turned over to CNN to listen to Lou.

[Bratch]

The problem with Doob's logic is that there are more than illegals participating and that there are more than hispanics participating.

*cough*Democrats*cough*

"Thank you Lou. I apologize for complaining about you last week."

I watched about ten minutes of it and had to turn it off. The insane illegals made me ill, especially the woman would said "we're tired of being ABUSED".

"(hear we lost a major FROBL today...)"

Who?

[Ben Ficklin]

That makes a lot of sense.

[Explorer24]

Yesterday was when I blew my top. I heard one of the organizers liken this to slavery. I went ballistic. I haven't flipped like that since seeing United 93

[HiJinx]

Radicalization Ping!

[taxed2death]

C'mon Wardaddy....don't keep us in suspense any longer....who's the missing FROBL?

[oceanview]

Dobbs on CNN right now - hitting it out of the park.

[LifeOrGoods?]

It has to be more than just illegal to be radical now, I guess.

[Holden Magroin]

As much as I hate CNN, Dobbs is better than any of the Bushbots on Fox News who support whatever Bush wants.

[The Foolkiller]

Lou is the best thing on television, and absolutely the ONLY thing I ever watch on CNN. I'm amazed they'd even have him on their network.

[backhoe]

I have been covering, ( Or, as Seamole calls it...-backhoe's pseudoblog--... ) psuedo-blogging, for years, a couple of the elements in WWIV ( III being the Cold War ), in which we find ourselves engaged.

The first element?

Islam, a Religion of Peace®? ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Pic, and scroll backwards:

The other, somewhat interlocking element is this one:

"Thunder on the Border," click the picture:

What is happening under the radar is that the alien lobby, certain elements of radical Islam, and some on the Left share common goals, tactics, and exploitations of our system and society.

See "ANSWER" in the poster?

Work backwards on my links to see all the shady left-wing and terrorist-enabling organizations backing this nonsense.

They're also trying to take control of USENET & GOOGLE POLITICAL NEWSGROUPS It's time conservatives make their arguments look stupid

[...]
"The meat packers are confirming what we know," says University of Maryland economics professor Peter Morici, "and that is that this large group of illegal aliens in the United States is lowering the wage rate of semiskilled workers, people who are high school dropouts or high school graduates with minimal training."

In fact, a meat-packing job paid $19 an hour in 1980, but today that same job pays closer to $9 an hour, according to the Labor Department. That's entirely consistent with what we've been reporting -- that illegal aliens depress wages for U.S. workers by as much as $200 billion a year in addition to placing a tremendous burden on hospitals, schools and other social services.

Mission Accomplished.

[redgolum]

My plant is directly affected by the "protest holiday" yesterday in the meat packers. We use skin to make gelatin, and will probably have to idle later this week because of the extra down days.

TFP [thanks for ping]

Anyone with a thought as to why this happened at this time, let us know. 'Why' is always a good starting point for understanding. Thanks.
