Perhaps if people would quit blaming Hispanics for every crime, social ill, and problem. Read any immigration thread and you will find people who hate anyone who is Latino, even those who are natural born American citizens.

Then of course Tancredo's bashing of Cuban immigrants is just further proof that isn't not about illegal immigration to him but all immigration, at least from countries where they speak Spanish.

Legal immigration is too high. Legal immigration from Spanish-speaking countries, especially, is too high, because it threatens to create a bicultural America -- the worst possible outcome. Even multiculturalism is somewhat better, or less bad, than biculturalism. I don't see Tancredo "bashing Hispanics" for every crime and social ill. I think you're lumping a few people together with a lot of other people, unjustly.

"Perhaps if people would quit blaming Hispanics for every crime, social ill, and problem."

strawman much?

Spot on, fools like Tancredo hurt the party and adds to the Republicans image that they are anti-hispanic which they are not. We need to fight the illegal immigration issue carefully and emphasis on the real issue which is violation of laws and not attack a set of people for their language or culture.
