Those opposing illegal immigration are "white supremacists"

So says Katrina Vanden Heuvel, demented magazine of the leftist rag called The Nation. Proving once again that liberals have no idea what normal America thinks, she observes the following:

Nation magazine publisher Katrina Vanden Heuvel said Sunday that illegal immigration foe, Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., is animated by a “white supremacist” philosophy – and insisted that illegals are “the backbone of this country.”

Following the Colorado Republican on ABC’s “This Week,” Vanden Heuvel told host George Stephanopoulos:

“Tancredo, on your show today – he looked pleasant. But I will say that what’s happened in our country is that some of the white supremacist thinking that used to be represented by David Duke has been absorbed by people like Tancredo.”

Vanden Heuvel called the House immigration reform bill backed by Tancredo “very dangerous,” “draconian” and “un-American,” before praising the illegal population:

“Undocumented immigrants are the backbone of this economy,” she told “This Week.” “They do the suburban lawns in this country. They take care of the kids. The economy in this country would be in real trouble [without illegal immigrants.]“
Vanden Heuvel predicted that “2006 will be the year of immigrants rising” before adding, “the demonization of immigrants is going to lead to ripping apart the Republican Party.”

Contrary to Vanden Heuvel’s claim, poll after poll on illegal immigration shows that more than two-thirds of Americans favor tougher border enforement.

That’s the codeword that leftists like to use for illegal immigrants: “undocumented immigrants.” “Undocumented” sounds more innocuous that the truth: lawbreakers. Expecting any person, immigrant or otherwise, legal or illegal, to observe the law is apparently a “white supremacist” expectation.

Plus, illegal aliens are “the backbone of the economy”? This will no doubt come as a surprise to the 95%+ of people in this country who apparently are irrelevant to the economy. No wonder everyone thinks liberals are functional illiterates when it comes to economic matters!

Leave it to the left to screw something else up, as usual. Nothing says “We’re ready to take control in D.C. in November!” quite like ignoring 2/3 of the country on illegal immigration, all for a little “Hispandering” and posturing. Nice job, Katrina! See you in November!

Illegal immigrants just like you and me

Apologists for illegal immigrants like to ignore the fact that by definition, illegal immigrants have already broken the law. Well, let’s see these apologists polish this behavior!

Susana Findley, a Gary native whose parents were born in Mexico, said illegal immigrant workers arrived here for the same reason federation members’ ancestors arrived: To find work and a better life.
…
When 63-year-old Chicago Minuteman member Rick Biesada arrived and pulled out his protest sign, he claimed that two counterprotesters yanked it from him. When he yanked it back, the men assaulted him, knocking him to the ground, he said.

The Lindenhurst, Ill., resident was treated by paramedics at the scene for a gash over his eye and dizziness, spending a few minutes inside an ambulance before returning to the protest.

“I wished he fell to the ground harder,” Findley said.

But hey…they’re just like you and me, right? Don’t we all work hard, pay taxes, and punch someone for saying something we don’t like? For those of you on the left, the prior sentence was both rhetorical and sarcastic.

Illegal aliens…breaking one law at a time!

Camels of mass destruction?

I don’t know if I should find this funny, but I do. Excerpt:

Saddam Hussein planned to use “camels of mass destruction” as weapons to defend Iraq, loading them with bombs and directing them towards invading forces.

The animals were part of a plan to arm and equip foreign insurgents drawn up by the dictator shortly before the American-led invasion three years ago, reveals a 37-page report, captured after the fall of Baghdad and just released by the Pentagon. It is part of a cache of thousands of documents that the United States Department of Defence says it does not have the resources to translate.
…
If the translation is correct, it suggests that many of the foreign fighters now attacking coalition forces and bombing Iraqi civilians were directly trained by the Saddam regime, although there are no known reports of camels being used in suicide attacks.

Maybe Saddam thinks that the allied forces, not wanting to incur the wrath of PETA, wouldn’t kill the “loaded camels” in self defense, huh?

Or, maybe Saddam had just finished off his oversized glass of Crazy As Hell jihad juice?
