In this unjust war, according to the Pentagon, more than 100 immigrant soldiers have died in combat while many more continue to enlist. The most recent data shows that 69,300 foreign-born men and women are serving in the U.S. armed forces, of which 43 percent (or 29,800) are not U.S. citizens. Many of these immigrant soldiers joined the military as a result of recruiter promises that they would one day receive a good job, a quality college education, and a better life. As in the past, those immigrants who do happen to make it alive and come home, face another war - the enforcement war being waged against our immigrant communities.
Oh the enforcement of immigration laws, which the immigrant soldiers complied with? The same laws provided for by the US Constitution that the soldiers took an oath to defend?
Gee, Prof. Calderon, if you could somehow tie the Iraq war, global warming, corporate greed and the plight of the poor illegal into one thesis, you would be the liberals’ hero. You’re almost there. Try just a bit harder. Think of the grant money.
Calderon is a mega moonbat.
I am having a tough time here trying to convince some democrat friends that this is democrat talking points. They will not believe me and blame all this on Bush and Republicans.
They are normal citizens and vote democrat and don’t even know what they are voting for. I think they are not unlike alot of other Americans.
Looks like Hose-A has been educated far beyond his intelligence.

Another nutjob Claremont professor, lots of them at the Claremont colleges. Guys like this just make me sick.
He’s a sociology professor. That’s what you do when you can’t pass Freshman calculus.
“This unjust war is continuing to blame the economic problems on undocumented immigrants while the multinational corporations, such as Exxon, are bringing in $40 billion in profits, the largest profit by a corporation in history.”
Silly argument, Exxon is huge and their profit percentage was actually a little low. They just deal in very large quantity. But they create jobs and pay taxes. So that is $40 billion after taxes right?
How much did the “undocumented” immigrants pay? How many jobs did they create for Americans?
Apparently a basic understanding of economics is not a requirement to be a professor of sociology.
This is an unjust war where workers aren't reaping the rewards of their labor and when the real reasons for why wages are trailing productivity gains has little to do with the growth of the immigrant population, but more to do with the corporate profits that are taking the lion's share of economic growth
The reward of labor is wages, while profit is the reward for enterpreurship and risk-taking.
I hate reading material like this. It's so full of falsehoods that it offends even the most modest definition of political discourse.
Most frustrating is that these tactics seem to be more commonplace.
