ABSOLUT IDIOCY: RECONQUISTA VODKA (Michele Malkin on invaders' plotting against America)

.....my e-mailbox lit up with messages about a new Absolut ad catering to Mexicans who believe the American Southwest belongs to them. (That extreme ethno-supremacist idea is not news to anyone who has paid attention to the massive illegal-alien marches where "This is our continent, not yours" has been a rallying mainstay.) Favio Ucedo, creative director of leading US Latino ad agency Grupo Gallegos, (not involved in the Absolut campaign), explained the reconquista-endorsing ad: "Mexicans talk about how the Americans stole their land, so this is their way of reclaiming it. It's very relevant and the Mexicans will love the idea."

Oops. Guess he didn't get the liberal talking-points manual: You're supposed to deny reconquista exists and label anyone who criticizes it as a delusional racist. The National Council of La Raza claims that reconquista is just a "code word" invented by "hate groups" who are dreaming the whole thing up.

Absolut's initial response to complaints was to hang up on consumers who phoned and to delete their e-mail. For its part, the open-borders Associated Press attempted to minimize Americans' widespread opposition to the Absolut ad and persisted in labeling reconquista views "fringe." I direct them to the speech given two weeks ago by Hillary Clinton campaign co-chair Dolores Huerta, who railed, "We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us" and gloated that immigration enforcement is moot because the reconquista is won. "It's really too late," Huerta said. "If 47 million [Latinos] have one baby each . . . it's already won."

I live in the United States, and no idiot stick is going to get a free pass for supporting the dismantleing of our nation with my state being the first to go.

You may want your state to become a part of Mexico, but I don’t want my own or even yours to.

You say I shouldn’t be on this forum. This forum wouldn’t even exist if you got your way ace. It’s in California.

An elderly woman stated what several of us have noted that something is not right with McCain. She mentioned that she watched him on The View yesterday and found his odd hand movements with his short arms distracting.

Weird is right.

Actually, Mexico has very strict laws against foreigners, non-citizens and, particularly, illegal aliens, participating in their political process. Doing so will get the offender jailed, fined and deported and, if they are lucky, that is all that will happen.

[Vigilanteman]

Amen, brother. Excluding the sewer ring of counties around SF Bay and LA County, the rest of California is just as American, if not more so, than the rest of America.

I am not willing to feed California to the alligators in hopes they will eat me last. Those who are should be considered cowards or collaborators.

Thanks. California is an amazing state. I understand folk’s frustration with what goes on here, but then I am frustrated by it as well. Still, I’m not surrendering one inch of this nation to Mexico, and it really angers me that the RNC and other citizens seem willing to do so.
