THE HALF A MILLION MARCH | 2006-03-27
Half a million people marched in Los Angeles demanding that US borders be opened.
One is not allowed to say that American Hispanics have no loyalty to other US citizens, but only to other Hispanics.
But that's how they vote.
That's how they march.
At the World Series the main speaker at the HIspanic celebration said he was speaking not only to Hispanics in the US but to "Our brothers in other lands."
When Republicans backed a referendum to take benefits away from known illegal aliens national Republicans backed away from it. Liberal Democrats said repeatedly that that meant the end of the Hispanic vote for California Republicans.
No one said, "You mean that Hispanic American citizens would rather have all Americans pay Hispanics because their only real loyalty is to other Hispanics?"
Like so many other home truths, that is a fact everybody takes for grnted and that no one is allowed to THINK, much less SAY.
On one television show, the black character was terribly upset when someone assumed that since she was black, she was a Democrat.
But the Democratic Party bets tens of millions of dollars, very openly, on that assumption every election year.
But if you say it, you're a bigot.
"The truth," as the British Court ruled, "Is no defense."
There is only one way to get things said, and that is to SAY them.
You can do more good repeating what I just said in Newsgroups than you can by bitching and whining and being depressed for the rest of your life.
If one person repeated the truth for every hundred people who bitch and whine about how hopeless everything is, we could make some real progress.
