See, the real problem is the Mexicans.

[IselaB]

My dad forwarded me this thing called "Asleep at the Wheel" which was all about an allegedly Hispanic man criticizing white Americans for not putting a stop to illegal immigration. It starts out with

"I can almost assure you that everyone who is a true American was Sickened when you saw multitudes of protesters carrying Mexican flags Protesting the new Immigration Reform Bill in the Senate. This display of Mexican flags should give you a heads up on where these protesters allegiance lies their hearts are in Mexico and their bellies are in the United States."

and ends with

"In summation, I'm pleading with white American voters to join me in sending our politicians (Democrats and Republicans) a strong message that we will not tolerate illegal immigrants telling us how to make government policy that will make it easier for them to break our laws. Hope you will join me in this endeavor in our upcoming elections."


It upset me (I dont' know why he sends me this stuff), but I wasn't sure how to respond. Then like 10 minutes later I checked out Max Udargo's blog and found this wonderful entry which is I think a great response:



Greetings fellow true American,

My name is Max Undargo and I am running as the Republican candidate for the House of Representatives in your district. I would like your vote. I am writing you to let you know where I stand on the issues that matter to you.

Liberal Democrats would like to distract you from what’s important by constantly talking about things like gas prices, failed foreign policies, soaring national debt, corruption scandals, incompetent responses to domestic disasters, global warming, domestic spying, old men being shot in the face by the Vice President and a myriad of other non-issues. But I know what’s really on your mind. I know what’s really important to true Americans:

Mexicans.

What the liberal Democrats don’t want you to know is that Mexicans are really the source of all of America’s problems. Let’s look at the facts:

• Mexico is an exporter of oil. Mexicans are responsible for high gasoline prices
  
• Over 150 of the “American” soldiers killed in Iraq were of Mexican descent. Mexicans are why we’re losing the war in Iraq


• Katrina attacked New Orleans from the Gulf of MEXICO


• If you revalue America’s $8 trillion national debt in Mexican pesos, the debt becomes over $89 trillion


• The 9/11 hijackers were immigrants from another country. Mexicans are immigrants from another country. Mexicans are responsible for 9/11

So the next time some bleeding-heart, liberal, multiculturalist, politically-correct, Democratic candidate for Congress tells you that America’s problems are caused by corrupt Republican Congressmen letting oil industry lobbyists pay for their whores, you tell him you’re nobody’s fool. You know the real problem is the Mexicans.

Damn Mexicans. Don’t you hate them? I sure do.

They sneak into our country illegally to steal our lettuce-picking jobs using the excuse that they’re poor and desperate, and yet they don’t even have the decency to learn English first. How hard could it be to learn English? I speak it fluently without ever having had a single lesson.

But they refuse to speak English. Why? Because they hate America. And England too, probably.

Real Americans know that it is long past time we stood up to the Mexican menace. So this November, don’t let yourself be distracted by $4/gallon gas prices. Don’t let the liberal Democrats divert your attention to the ongoing US casualties in the Iraq war by telling you that the war is training a new generation of terrorists, threatening to destabilize the Middle East, costing Americans over $200 million every day, or some other such nonsense. Don’t let those who hate America shift the conversation to old-hat issues like Katrina, the Dubai ports debacle, botched Social Security and Medicare reforms, Osama bin Laden, or the Vice President of the United States shooting old men in the face.

Don’t be distracted by the endless corruption scandals involving the highest levels of Republican leadership. The liberal Democrats are going to be talking a lot about this silly affair with the lobbyists and the prostitutes, but do your best to ignore that. Stay focused on what’s important to real Americans:

Mexicans. Those damn Mexicans. They’re the problem.

And vote Republican. Vote for me. Because I understand what’s really important to real Americans.



Looking forward to representing your interests in Congress,

Max Undargo



:D
I love Max Udargo.

1. They were protesting the House bill

Tell your dad it's hard to take him seriously about his love for America when he doesn't even know what the hell is going on in his own government.

2. My dad didn't write it, he just forwarded it

But still a good point.

I still think that Udargo's main point, that attacks on immigrants is just a diversion, is the most important point.

3. that's a keeper....thanks...

:kick:

4. "multitudes of protesters carrying Mexican flags"

(???) strange someone's eyes must be playing tricks on them cause I saw "multitudes of protesters carrying" American flags :patriot: :shrug: I think whoever saw "multitudes of protesters carrying Mexican flags" needs to get their eyes examined. :crazy:

[treestar]

5. Put guards at the border and you can put a stop to it and thank

whatever gods your ancestors came before technology made that possible.

Also, I take it murder, rape, gangs, robbery, organized crime, terra, are all taken care of right? None of that is happening, since we have so much time to worry about who is working/living on which sides of which borders.
