And he is not alone....here is what our Dear Friend O'Reilly on last night show....

O’REILLY: But do you understand what the New York Times wants, and the far-left want? They want to break down the white, Christian, male power structure, which you’re a part, and so am I, and they want to bring in millions of foreign nationals to basically break down the structure that we have. In that regard, Pat Buchanan is right. So I say you’ve got to cap with a number.

Yikes! That's pretty rough, even for O'Reilly! (sigh)

Yes, but worse was that John McCain agreed with him - and he's a (debatable) contender to be the Republican nominee.

hang in there Laura, the reality is that most americans don't relate to the issue of immigration on a personal level. Most of them do not and will not know what its like to live in cities or communities which are cut in half by thug-enforced immaginary boundaries. Where you can visit people from across the bridge, but don't fall in love with them and don't make families with them. Where governing agencies keep families apart and cheat them of their freedom to simply keep in touch. Where the government succeeeds in violating more and more of a families most intimate chances of survival. In our reality, the government is increasing the aggression of breaking down our most valuable resource, the family unit. By placing false value in race/creed, people like O'Reilly, and Buchanan will keep resisting the 'melting pot' ideal of this country and are actually challenging the decency of humanity. I'm hoping that the righteousness of human nuture will prevail. Till then, I and many more, like yourself, will become more 'activist' as our basic human right to keep our families united are being threatened.

What fascinates me about all this is that "The Border" is like a socio-economic two-way mirror. In other words, while U.S. people and interests get to cross at will to spread all over Mexico, sucking the life out of poor Mexicans and their economy through a thousand tiny (and not so tiny) pin-pricks, Mexican workers are not allowed to come north. Those economic and political interests served by a continual and generalized U.S. access to all levels of Mexican existance would be horrified at losing that access. But back the other direction? Noooooo.

It's no surprise that the "Guest Worker" program would be set up to "let" Mexicans work in the U.S. -- without safety regulations, health coverage, standard minimum wage or other benefits -- of course. Just make money for the employer and leave. Can anyone say "Bracero"? And so history repeats itself, while planners purport to be seeking to "help" undocumented Mexican workers.

Thanks for the encouragement tizoc.

Changeseeker -- you make an excellent point. I started to comment further, but then it got ridiculously long, and now I'm just going to have to blog some thoughts, rather than post a lengthy comment.
