Maverick Dutch anti-immigration politician Pim
Fortuyn, shown in this November, 2001 file photo,
was shot dead Monday, nine days before a general
election in which he was expected to make big gains.
There was no claim of responsibility for the shooting
which took place at 6 p.m. outside a big media complex
in Hilversum, 12 miles southeast of Amsterdam.

Absolutely correct. The U.S. will meet a similar fate by becoming LATINIZED by Mexico and the rest of Central and South America.

News Flash: Hispanic people are a) Christian in religion and culture and b) by and large ethnically a Caucasian-American Indian mix. In other words, they're every bit as "white" as the average American is, and most of them that I've met are easily just as Christian, too -- in many cases, more so.

Now, if you're afraid that the WASP, Puritan, New England-dominted elite is on the way out -- you're right. They aborted and contracepted themselves right out of the running. The future of America belongs to the BEACH -- the Brown Euro-American Catholic Hispanic -- and that's just fine by me. At least they like kids.

California is going down the tubes because of its leftist politics and masses of unassimilated peasants. If you want to see what the future of America looks like, look at Texas; we have our problems here, but most of us work hard and get along fairly well no matter our skin color. Why? Because most Texans share the same cultural values: we work hard, play hard, respect innocent life, and believe in harsh justice when called for. The combination of Mediterranean/Latin joie de vivre and Anglo-Celtic-Germanic thrift and industry that exemplifies Texan culture is the reason why so many people love this humid, hot, heavenly state, and why we -- God willing -- will succeed where SoCal has failed.

Unlike Europe, we are a Republic founded on an Ideal..not a historic boundry or race.

That's a lie, of course, but a very useful lie which has gotten a lot of play over the past 20 years. But it simply is not true, as anyone who knows any real history could tell you (as opposed to the ideology mascarading as history which causes people to believe the lie that "we" are an "ideology" and not a nation). No true American 18th, 19th, or early 20th century American would have ever fallen for so preposterous a lie.

The reason I used the word republic instead of nation, is just that the US is a republic of independant nations..each state being it's own nation. (At least we were before FDR, activist Supreme Courts, 14th Amendment ect). Now, with that said, If you want to treat the entire US as a single Nation, fine, than we are a nation based on an ideology, not a race or history boundry. This is different from any other nationalism.

I'm not sure what you are considering a lie, but I assuming you don't know squat about history either.
