I have never had a problem with a Hispanic/Latino person. Period. I have had plenty of problems with heterosexual white 'Christians' telling me God made Adam and Eve, not Steve.

"But they should learn ENGLISH @^^#&&$@@!" . . .where I grew up there were whole ethnic neighborhoods with signage in the mother tongue. Yes, learn English because it will improve your status as an immigrant and keep you out of the bottom rung of jobs. But if I see a storefront whose sign is solely in Vietnamese, I can either assume there is nothing there of interest to me or I can go in and ask what they sell.

"They are here ILLEGALLY! We are a nation of LAWS!!!!@^^#&&$&" Someone here illegally to pick lettuce is less than a threat to me than a President who can eavesdrop outside of the law without repercussion. Settle that first then get back to me.

1. Amen. "Settle that first then get back to me." Applies to just
about every other major screw-up the Bushistas are trying to obscure with this from nowhere attention on immigration reform. Health care? Iraq? Global warming? The crumbling national infrastructure of roads and bridges? The explosion of prisons as warehouses for the poor and mentally ill? "Settle that first then get back to me."

2. The rule of law doesn't apply to self-proclaimed God ordained presidents
