Democrats Cowed by GOP Scare Tactics on Immigrants
Submitted by strike on Thu, 2007-11-15 17:00
"Espaillat voiced what many Latino leaders now fear: Illegal immigration is rapidly becoming the boogey man of the upcoming presidential race. Republican leaders, fearing a complete rout of their party in next year's national election, are determined to ride public anger over undocumented immigrants in the same way they rode anger over gay marriage in the 2004 race. Look at all those illegal Salvadoran gardeners and Mexican bus boys and Jamaican nannies and Haitian sugar cane cutters - all those weapons of mass destruction aimed at America . Terrorists abroad. Alien invasion within. Danger everywhere." All about appearances and strategy with these career politicians....a big game of monopoly.
