You know, I remember reading fear stories about the Vietnam boat people, who were brought to the United States in fairly significant numbers in the mid 70s (though not 12 million). ... I have no fears of bloodshed as I have a high opinion of the generosity and munificence of the majority of the American people, and the goodwill of the vast majority of the Mexican immigrants.

Omigod! Bring in the violins...sinkspur, sing us the first chorus of "Mexican border crashers are just like Vietnamese boat people" we'll pick up the refrain from there.

Does anybody know the melody to "It Takes A Village?" (barfhurlbuickchuckgag)

You're either too young or too stupid to remember the xenophobia toward the Vietnamese.

It mirrors some of the xenophobia in the latest hysteria.
