Fox News said this morning that the boycott was a bust. I guess the illegals aren't happy to hear this.

I'm done patronizing Mexican restaurants. They all hire illegals.

...the boycott was a bust. I think they need to keep trying until they get it right, say, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

"Illegal immigrants and their supporters vowed to keep up the pressure on Congress for reforms after more than 1 million people stepped out of the shadows and poured into the streets in a nationwide show of economic clout."

Did something happen yesterday that I missed?

My life went on yesterday pretty much as it always has.

And a march in Seattle was disrupted when a car struck a group of marchers

"I want my children to know their mother is not a criminal," said Olmedo, a nanny who came here illegally in 1986 from Mexico



You are a criminal. One that got away with it for a long time.

They going to need to extend their "Boycott Momentum" because if yesterday was the best that they have in their political arsenal, then all I can say is "Standby for heavy rolls while coming about!"

American is out of patience amd that slowly building backlash is guaranteed to sink not only their little movement, but all those politicians and businesses that support it as well.

marches with waves of red, white and blue filling streets for miles

Could have fooled me:

...from the State Capitol in Sacramento yesterday. The only red white and blue I see here is wrapped around someone's butt.

About 35 to 40 anti-immigration demonstrators got into shouting matches with pro-immigration marchers as they were leaving a Denver park. Among them were Ron and Marge Mason of Thornton, a Denver suburb. "We're tired of seeing the illegals coming in," Ron Mason said.

No bias here...

And, who in their right mind hires someone who is in the country illegally to watch their kids???

1 million people stepped out of the shadows and poured into the streets

marchers held U.S. flags aloft and sang the national anthem in English

Pure propaganda swill.

But it doesn't matter ... the MSM no longer controls the news ... and this demonstration strategy is backfiring bigtime.

"Today we march, tomorrow we vote."

And there you have the end of the conservative movement in America.

Lets work it out 12 million illegals - and we all know that is a low-ball figure - get the vote, bring in their wife, kids and parents.

Figure another 12 - 20 million on top of the original 12 million and you have 24 - 32 million new voters, mostly with strong Socialist roots and very strong National identities - with MEXICO, no respect or love for the pride and dignity of American culture or the values of Western Civilization, and there you have the ending of America and the triumph of Mexamerica.

If this bill passes into law then this is the point where future historians will mark as the beginning of the fall of America.

Good old AP. This reads like a press release for the illegal organizations.

"The boycott was organized by immigrant activists angered by federal legislation that would criminalize an estimated 11 million illegal immigrants and fortify the U.S-Mexico border."

Uh, Ms. Flaccus, illegal immigrants are already criminals.

Bush and the Republicans had best get the message that amnesty for these criminals is a loser. Consider Bush's polls in latest Gallup.

Bush's Numbers

New Gallup poll figures are in. Bush's job approval rating is 34 percent — two points down from mid-April. That's no surprise. But there are a few interesting numbers in the poll. One is Bush's personal approval rating — he is now at 39 percent approve, 60 percent disapprove, the first time his personal approval rating has ever fallen below 40 percent. Another interesting number if approval of Bush's handling of the economy. It is now 34 percent — another low. (Perhaps if economic growth skyrockets to 15 or 20 percent per year, that number will fall even lower.) Finally, the poll shows that approval of Bush's handling of the war in Iraq — 32 percent — is significantly higher than approval of Bush's handling of the immigration issue — 26 percent. His number on immigration is the lowest of any issue, except for his approval rating on the energy issue, which is at 22 percent.

The American public is tired of all this. I know I am. Any future demonstrations will be puny, and the media will move on to something else.

We Conservatives are making headway. My Senator (TRENT LOTT) actually gave a radio address this morning in which he stated, "We need to work a bill out in committee with the House, that Secures our borders FIRST, and truly secures them, and then and ONLY then should we consider a LIMITED Guest Worker program. No Amnesty!"

These are the two groups responsible for the illegal alien rallys. Unite Here is the Union Group that provided the marchers with the placards, WE ARE AMERICA.

UNITE HERE
