That child of Southern Calif privelege, that personification of xenophobia,
that serial trasher of Canada and Mexico, that child of wealth who no doubt grew up with Mexican domestic help and domestic laborers, Tucker Carlson, asks why Mexicans hate Americans.

This was on his show on MSNBC and was discussed without the slightest hint of irony.

He then asked, rhetorically, what 'we've' done to 'them' that would cause them to hate us. Again .... not even a smell of irony in the stench of his rhetoric.

3. Every time I see him, my disdain increases. He reminds me of one
of those insufferable yacht club types with their nose in the air.

4. to paraphrase a quote from South Park...
SP kids: "Why does half the world hate us?"

Afghani children: "Because you don't understand why half the world hates you!"

7. So, it's okay to hate someone...
because of where they were born? I don't get it.

8. I don't see the hate thing
Edited on Wed May-30-07 06:41 PM by Jim4Wes
Many Mexican immigrants are hard working good people who just decided to take a non-violent relatively harmless but illegal gamble to make a better life for themselves. Tucker is simply trying to create a stereotype. The good thing is most Americans would disagree with him anyways. What an ass.
