This should be addressed to all of those conservative talkers who dismiss Pat Buchanan as a simple minded racist.
The Republicans gotta get some guts on this issue now or risk
losing big in Novemeber.
1. Round up every illegal Mexican within a 10-mile radius of the post office, deport them, confiscate all property (homes, cars, etc.) and sell to pay expenses of deportation. Before they leave, make them attend a ceremony in front of the flag pole in which the Mexican flag is burned and the U.S. flag is raised again on the pole.
2. The flag-raising incident doesn't change the fact that Pat Buchanan is a racist.
3. "Hispanic" is not a race. It is an ethnicity. Doesn't change the fact that Pat Buchanan is a racist.
4. Pat's racism is far from simple-minded. He wraps it in code words instead of using the explicit lingo of the KKK. Just consider him a modern day Father Coughlin.
Just for the record, I've never said Pat was simple minded. ;)
1. Pat Buchanan hasn't been listened to ... ever. He's too abrasive, even though he speaks the truth. No one in the GOP wants to hear home truths about some things, especially illegals.
2. No kidding. The GOP has such guts when it comes to foreign policy, but NONE when it comes to illegals.
Bottom line: the majority of illegals are Mexicans. Getting tough on the illegals would alienate (Pun intended.) too many Hispanic voters for the GOP.
So they show NO BACKBONE and alienate their base...like me. The threat is that the base will stay home in November. It's a very real threat, too. They will reap what they sow.
