Linda doesn’t mind that LEGAL immigrants are forced to accept SLAVE WAGES, due to her desire to flood the labor market with ILLEGALs!!!

Linda Chavez is acting like a foreign agent.

Traitor would be another word.

Scare tactics?

If it’s true, it’s true.

Name calling shows desperation to cover TRUTH.

Linda Chavez, you need to read Michelle Malkin's article at the top of Townhall.com - The Crucifixion of Jason Richwine.

Your putrid, spurious and unprofessional slander of the work of the Heritage Foundation is what is saddening. Scare tactics?! That would be you madam.

A study released by Pew this week shows that Hispanic high school graduates are now attending college at higher rates than non-Hispanic white graduates -- a major change from the past...Studies that factor in the contributions of the second generation against the costs to taxpayers of their early years show a net positive impact.

Linda better check her "facts" before running her mouth. The net positive impact shows as the second generation moving back into their parents basement with a six figure debt load they can't handle as a fry cook in the local greasy spoon.

She needs to bring up the statistics about how many people are killed by illegals.

Those are FACTS. Many illegals kill legal American citizens. It wouldn't happen if the law was enforced.
The death of our citizens is a much higher cost that the money. Don't forget the number of Americans out of work or paid much lower than what they would be getting if the market wasn't flooded with foreign invaders.

Chavez needs to take a preschool course in Economics and maybe they'll have a felt coloured dinosaur that can help her understand the concept of “SUPPLY AND DEMAND”

Linda Chavez is acting like a foreign agent.
****************************************************
Maybe that’s because she likely IS A FOREIGN AGENT. My definition of “foreign agent” is one who gets paid, directly or indirectly, from funds from foreign sources and or one who promotes foreign interests, regardless of the source of the funding, over the interests of US citizens.

Chavez is all that BIG TIME!X

If the overwhelming majority of illegals weren’t Hispanic Linda, how different would you position be?

Racism? You bet.

She remembered to include everything except “and you can’t criticize me because I have a “Z” at the end of my last name”.

Branding Americans “racists” to further their agenda
Jan. 24 2010
In 2007, former Bush nominee and columnist Linda Chavez published an article in which she accused Americans who stood in opposition to the Bush/McCain/Kennedy Amnesty Bill as racists. Alleging racism is the favorite tactic of the open borders crowd, as it is often used by those who find themselves on the wrong side of the argument.

Let us refresh our memory...In 2001, Linda Chavez was nominated by President Bush for the Secretary of Labor position. Her nomination fell apart when it was discovered that she had long employed an illegal alien as a housekeeper. In her ensuing unofficial role, she often acted as a cheerleader for Bush and his desire to turn the U.S. into Mexico.

Town Hall and Linda Chavez are eager to flood the country with Democrats so we don’t have to have political disruptions every 4 or 8 years when the party in power changes. With 11 then 30 then 50 then ??? new Democrats, that will be a thing of the past until the Hispanic Party splits off from the Democrat Party which will result in the differences in two parties being whether English or Spanish is to be the primary language and maybe government will commence periodic changes of rulers by coup and mob.

There are already studies that agree with Heritage’s take here. One from Numbers USA has stated that within 20 years roughly 49% of legal immigrants are on one form of welfare or another. Why will the illegals be any different?

Linda is being entirely parochial. Heritage is putting out valid and alarming data on costs, so they have to be trashed.

Linda’s a neocon.

Chavez Withdraws As Labor Nominee

By Ron Fournier
AP Political Writer
Tuesday, Jan. 9, 2001; 5:23 p.m. EST

WASHINGTON –– Linda Chavez withdrew Tuesday as President-elect Bush's nominee to be secretary of labor, saying that "search and destroy" politics had made her a distraction to the incoming administration over the haven she gave an illegal immigrant from Guatemala in the early 1990s.

Mercado said she did chores for Chavez, who gave her money on occasion as an act of charity. Chavez "knew I was not legal in this country," Mercado said Monday. "She knew I didn't have my green card." She added that Chavez offered once or twice to help her gain legal status.

Remember when Chavez was considered “conservative”?
