As do Democrats.<br /><br />But seriously folks, Republicans no more hate Latinos than do Democrats - at least at the higher levels of each party. Both are fighting over how to get the votes of this emerging new voting block. <br /><br />President Bush actually had things other than just the Western Growers Association on his mind, when he championed immigration reform. He was known to have, amongst his best friends, a Latino. And if memory serves, a nephew of Bush II is a Latino. <br /><br />More personally, I have a friend who has been to several Tea Party functions - don't ask me why - who is married to a woman from Brazil. <br /><br />Admittedly, there's probably a number of bigots who call themselves Republicans saying "send 'em home" as soon as possible. But there's probably more than a few Democrats with similar inclinations. Especially in places such as California or Arizona. <br /><br />It's the sad reality of living in America, these days.Terry Parkhursthttp://automatter.typepad.com/my_weblog/noreply@blogger.com
