Dobbs needs to look into a good SRI. He's gone off the deep end.

I'm hoping for a fist fight between he and Geraldo when they give him
a job at Fox. Fox may have to clean house of all hispanics if they
expect Dobbs to behave properly, or even survive.

They better clean Dobbs' house too, since his Mexican-American wife

Dobbs has never been anti-hispanic, just anti-illegal.

I do not believe the Hispanic community agrees with you. Either you
or they are watching him more closely. I can't stand watching him or
his bimbo stand in.

The latest fiasco was the trumping up of the bullet hitting his house.
Local authorities chalked it up to an errant hunting shot, since it
didn't penetrate the shingle on the house.

Of course Dobbs made big hay of it, claiming that someone had targeted
his house and nearly killed his wife.

Like I said, he's been driving quickly towards an emotional cliff.
Perhaps CNN recognized that he needed a change of scenery.

I don't want to go through language choices either, but sometimes a little
inconvenience is the price we haev to pay. Amnesty in name sounds terrible,
but in actual fact, it's either they remain underground or they're given
some opportunity to get legal. There's no way to remove all the illegals in
this country. Illegal immigration is actually down a bit, since the US
economy is so weak. We need better border security and we need to start
enforcing the laws already on the books with greater vigor.

What's Yugoslavia?

Dobbs goes beyond the illegal alien fight, using language that
identifies his target's cultural identity a little too acutely.

He also doesn't seem to spend much time on the downside of kicking all
these low-wage workers out of the country.

He's just a little too hopped up. Now it looks like he's having to
bark outside the tent of a different circus.

I know there's a huge workforce that picks most of our fruits and
vegetables for far lower wages than our fellow citizens are used to
getting paid. They also provide domestic help as you pointed out.
While you or I may replace our gardener (I don't have one) in tough

they couldn't underpay someone to service their customers. Doesn't

They can get legal by going back to their contry of origin and get in
line for legal entry to the USA.

When you find an illegal alien, you summarily deport them.

If you enter the USA illegally then you do not respect the laws of the
USA and you should not ever be allowed back in.

Far easier to investigate corporations, find examples of illegal hiring,
arrest the corporate officers on criminal charges, try them and if they
are found guilt, impose heavy fines on the corporation and the
individuals, and then imprison the individuals. For really long terms.

No get out of jail free cards for execs who claim, "We didn't know."

The illegal workers, after all, come here to make a few bucks to support
their families. The law-breaking corporate execs are trying to screw all
of us.

Let's start with the company you work for, Bertie... who is the
compliance officer?

A nice thought, but incredibly naive.

In Freehold, NJ, there is a muster zone for these illegals. They hang
out there all day waiting for work, for some landscaper or other
business to pick them up. Cash trade.

The town decided to shut down the zone, and began regular patrols to
disperse the crowd:

"Day laborers filed a federal class action lawsuit alleging the borough
prevented workers from seeking employment. The lawsuit was filed on
behalf of day laborers, many of whom are Hispanic immigrants, after the
town shut down a muster zone where the laborers solicited work from area
contractors. The class claimed they were harassed and threatened with
police action for assembling at the location to scout work. The Borough
of Freehold has agreed to settle the case for $278,000." -Newsday

See? They were not illegal immigrants, they were "day laborers", and
*many* were "Hispanic immigrants". All working for cash, neither the
employer nor themselves paying the taxes they owe the government.

The "Hispanic Community" is guided by a bunch of liberals looking for
votes. The folks *in* the community are led to believe the Republicans
are trying to persecute them by taking action against illegal aliens.
The folks *in* the communty don't have the sense to realize that the
job market is just that - a market. They can't seem to realize that
the millions of illegal aliens are making it much more difficult for
the *legal* immigrants to find work.

Yes, and many do. Many more don't, because we don't enforce the employer
laws we have.

Pretty much happens this way now. Of course, we have due process, to
hopefully ensure they are actually illegal. There was a case of that not
being followed and a US citizen was deported.

If you enter the USA illegally then you do not respect the laws of the

I do not believe the Hispanic community agrees with you. Either you
or they are watching him more closely. I can't stand watching him or
his bimbo stand in.

The "Hispanic community" wants amnesty for illegals - for the
Hispanics anyway. Dobbs doesn't.
That's all it is. Personally I'm with Dobbs on that.
It's got nothing to do with race, but with law and its purpose.
The main purpose being I don't want to go through 5 ****ing language
selections when I make a phone call.
This ain't Yugoslavia.

--Vic


The "Hispanic Community" is guided by a bunch of liberals looking for
votes. The folks *in* the community are led to believe the Republicans
are trying to persecute them by taking action against illegal aliens.
The folks *in* the communty don't have the sense to realize that the
job market is just that - a market. They can't seem to realize that
the millions of illegal aliens are making it much more difficult for
the *legal* immigrants to find work.



Yeah, my doctor friends from Ireland are really upset they can't get work as
gardeners...

I know there's a huge workforce that picks most of our fruits and
vegetables for far lower wages than our fellow citizens are used to
getting paid. They also provide domestic help as you pointed out.
While you or I may replace our gardener (I don't have one) in tough
times, think of all the entrepreneurs who'd be **** out of luck if
they couldn't underpay someone to service their customers. Doesn't

I suspect that citizens or legal immigrants would have picked up much
of the slack.
Saw a news article a couple months ago about anglos working picking
fruit. Colorado I think. It's the economy.....


They were Mexicans in white face paid by Lou Dobbs.

He's just a little too hopped up. Now it looks like he's having to

I don't see a place for him. Given his birther madness, Fox probably

If anyone can push Lou into an onscreen heart attack, it'd be Fox.

No, it is CBS that edits tapes. Puts sparklers in gas tanks to show they

Oh, are you now disagreeing with Hannity? He admitted they'd doctored

an actual admission tho', he said it was inadvertent.

A nice thought, but incredibly naive.

In Freehold, NJ, there is a muster zone for these illegals. They hang
out there all day waiting for work, for some landscaper or other
business to pick them up. Cash trade.

The town decided to shut down the zone, and began regular patrols to
disperse the crowd:

"Day laborers filed a federal class action lawsuit alleging the borough
prevented workers from seeking employment. The lawsuit was filed on
behalf of day laborers, many of whom are Hispanic immigrants, after the
town shut down a muster zone where the laborers solicited work from area
contractors. The class claimed they were harassed and threatened with
police action for assembling at the location to scout work. The Borough
of Freehold has agreed to settle the case for $278,000." -Newsday

See? They were not illegal immigrants, they were "day laborers", and
*many* were "Hispanic immigrants". All working for cash, neither the
employer nor themselves paying the taxes they owe the government.

Now talk about enforcing the laws already on the books.

Johnson


Sure doesn't look like they were enforcing them in a way that could be
prosecuted. They just shut the area down.

That's the trouble with our democracy. You need to have proof of
illegal activities. They didn't want to go through the trouble.

Who are you going after next? Waitresses?

It's called due process. You can't shut down a whole class of people because
of a suspected illegal activity.

I'm not familiar with the specifics. Sounds like someone in the town screwed
up.


Exactly.

Lazy fools who don't understand the law. "Let's just shut it down!"

They cost the community nearly $300,000 because of their stupidity,
and Johnson uses it as a pillar in his argument against illegals.

Duh.

Quite right. In fact, one of the excuses given at the time was that
even if the document were a forgery, it was at least representative of
the truth. Hyperbole had a field day from the left-field bleachers
with that canard.
