Freeper CHICAGOLADY has been asked to appear on CNN AMERICAN MORNING Monday June 23, 2008. 5 A.M.Chicago time (Central)
This will be the second recent program at CNN for Rosanna Pulido to speak about the meetings GOP Presidential Candidate John McCain has been holding with 'hispanics' only and attended by Ms. Pulido.
[snip]In an interview with AP, she states,
Hes one John McCain in front of white Republicans. And hes a different John McCain in front of Hispanics, complained Rosanna Pulido, a Hispanic and conservative Republican who attended the meeting.......Hes having his private meetings to rally Hispanics and to tell them what they want to hear, she said. Im outraged that he would reach out to me as a Hispanic but not as a conservative.
Pulido, who heads the Illinois Minuteman Project, which advocates for restrictive immigration laws, said she thought McCain was pandering to the crowd by emphasizing immigration reform in his 15-minute speech.
The Article also states, After the event, McCain met privately with Martin Sandoval, an Illinois state senator and Democratic convention delegate for former candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton. Sandoval said he left open the possibility of backing McCain, citing his immigration stance and pledge to keep business taxes low.

Up early tomorrow, the lady speaks well, worth getting up for!
That’s 6 AM EST
WOW
I get up with the birds at that time anyway..
:)
I’ve got the recorder set. Excellent!
Thank you.
Hopefully, you are not reading this message, as you should be asleep right now.
Hey, Juan....Where are your (Liberal)Media Buddies now? ...We told you, it was going to happen....but your ego got in the way.
Maybe to a Democrap business taxes seem low but they are the highest in the industrialized world.
I emailed the tip to Michelle at Hotair.com. Hopefully she, AllahP or Ed will post the video.
Thank you! I got distracted away from my desk today and got this up late.
Breaking News.....
CNN wants to interview a McCain hater....
Who is Wanda Sikes?
“CNN wants to interview a McCain hater....”
How original. A bit hard to play the race card that McCain is so fond of with that lousy hand isn’t it?
Border Ping!
Right. How original that CNN would seek out a conservative FReeper to bash McCain.
The Scott McClellans (sp?) of the world are a dime a dozen.
How many more votes is McCain going to get by Hispandering compared to how many he's going to lose if he's caught doing it after promising to respect the people's views about the amnesty bill?
Conservatives punching him across the chops for this could save his candidacy, if he listens. Else he may be toast.
Way to go CL.
Illinois FReepNORAD ping!
Also, did y’all see THIS?
Impeachment dust kicked up by recall talk
Sentiment is growing that it’s high time we got rid of Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
His leadership has been so poisonously inept that we’ve made almost no progress toward reform in such bedeviling areas as education, pensions, health care, capital spending and transit. Contributing to this paralysis is a darkening cloud of scandal hovering over his administration.
I share that sentiment. Illinois can’t and shouldn’t have to endure another 33 months of Cirque du Blago...

Juan Mc Cain and Illinois Hispanics
by Rosanna Pulido
I was one of the 150 people at the Drake Hotel in Downtown Chicago Wednesday night who came to hear John McCain speak to Illinois Hispanics.
Personally, as an Original Minuteman who attended the Historic Minuteman Border Watch in 2005 on the Arizona/ Mexico border, and returning 2 more times for a tour of duty along our southern Border, I was especially looking forward to what John Mc Cain would say about illegal immigration.
This was a NO MEDIA ALLOWED EVENT! That is why I am reporting back to you, all of you folks who have fought so hard with your phone calls to Washington D.C. last summer, shutting down the Washington DC switch board and defeating the AMNESTY BILL. I am reporting back to you those of you who work tirelessly in your local cities and towns trying to get some public elected official to care and enforce the rule of law.
I was told by my friend and fellow Hispanic Marianne Davies who is on the board of “You Don’t Speak for Me” that John Mc Cain has been going across the country having “PRIVATE” meetings with Hispanics.
Although the invitation said we would be able to ask questions, that “question “ time with John Mc Cain never happened. That was OK with me, I never had the intention of asking a question, I knew exactly the kind of open borders crowd I was with.
John Mc Cain’s favorite mantras of the evening was Comprehensive Immigration Reform. But he started out first of all saying if he is gonna win the Presidential election he will need the support of the Latino community.
He said “ My state has been enriched by the Hispanic culture in Arizona.”
Then John MC Cain asked a question “Did you know this? I bet some of you did not know that Spanish was spoken in Arizona before English” ...Loud cheers from the audience. (OK John Mc Cain What is your AZATLAN POINT?)
Then he said “ I want to have some straight talk about our relationship with Mexico, our closest neighbor and dearest friend” He talked about the Mexican President fighting the drug cartels.
Then John Mc Cain said the exact thing I came to hear, he said “I was proud to work for Comprehensive Immigration Reform ( another word for Amnesty) and If I am elected President I assure you that in 2009 I will ask Congress to pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform.” (The crowd goes wild) “It is a Federal Responsibility” he said and continued “ we also need a temporary guest worker program”
He then told a story about a day laborer who got picked up this morning, worked all day and then never got paid...We have no Federal Policy, we cannot allow this to happen, he said, He repeated I assure you that I will work for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. (AMNESTY)
John McCain talked about a debate he was in about enforcing the law and he says that the “other side had a lot of Rhetoric “you know what I am talking about!” he said.
I guess the most telling event of the evening was a certain person who was in the room. From my own account he is the God Father of the massive illegal alien movement in Illinois. He is a Democrat and part of the HDO, Martin Sandoval - serves on a Mexican government advisory council. In fact, you can see his name on this list of their advisors:
www.ime.gob.mx/ccime/directorios/dir_ccime_06_09.htm
Exactly which country is he representing at this rally for John Mc Cain?
Martin Sandoval, Illinois senator, wants to represent Mexicans too Martin Sandoval is a state Senator from Illinois. He’s also running for a seat on Mexico’s “Institute for Mexicans Abroad” advisory council: Sandoval would be the first elected official in the U.S. to serve on the advisory council. That raises the peculiar prospect of the Cicero Democrat offering policy advice in an official capacity to Mexican Cabinet members while creating laws in Illinois...
Sandoval said his participation is especially logical because a large share of his constituents were born in Mexico. More than 42 percent of Sandoval’s Senate district is foreign-born, the second-highest rate in the state...
Illinois State Senator also stated at the Latino Caucus at the Rosemont Convention Center a couple of years ago “we need to start a revolution through the Catholic Church” and thats exactly what we see happening on behalf of the illegal alien population.
NOW we see what kind of folks are interested in getting John Mc Cain in office.
