Roy Edroso shortened this piece by Mark Krikorian at the National Review as, ?What good are wetbacks if we can?t use them against faggots?? Then he added, ?you think I?m kidding?!?
Sadly, Roy is not kidding, for if you click on the piece by Krikorian, you see a lot of verbose garbage that could indeed be reduced to that base, racist sentiment. Look:
While Hispanic immigrants, like black Americans, are conservative on certain social issues (though not as much as some might think), it doesn?t matter politically. As one political scientist recently put it, in reaction to a new poll:
?It?s always been said that Latinos have a conflict between their religion and their political tendencies. That they?re usually more progressive on economic policy but conservative on social issues,? said Matt Barreto, a professor at the University of Washington in Seattle and advisor to Latino Decisions.
However, Barreto said the poll reflects no such conflict: ?Religion and social and moral values are not among their priorities when they make their political and election calculations.?
That?s part of the reason why California, the state with the largest share of immigrants in its population, has ?the first state law mandating lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender history and social science curricula.? It?s not that immigrants demanded this nonsense; they probably don?t even like it very much. But their large-scale presence solidifies the position of the Left, making this kind of thing possible, and they aren?t turned off by it enough to rebel against it. When there?s a referendum, sure, they?ll vote against gay marriage, for instance, but that?s not the way most social policy is made. Both by importing faithful Democratic voters and through sheer numbers creating more safe leftist seats in local and state and federal legislatures, mass immigration empowers statism and cultural leftism.
It?s all a conspiracy by the ?leftists? and the ?statists? and the gays to ?import Mexicans? in order to create laws mandating that gay history be taught in California, you see. Now, what I want you to notice about this fine wingnut hackery is just how many of their ooga-boogas it involves. You?ve got big gub?mint, you got lib?ruls, you got gays and you?ve got ?illegally imported? Mexicans! This works on their readers because wingnuts don?t have to explain anything. They just have to invoke the specter of things their readers are afraid of and it?s considered a Q.E.D. situation.
It?s not that Democrats are necessarily bad (well, the slaveholder part was bad, but we finally beat that out of them),
By turning them into Republicans?
But it does mean that any successful GOP effort to woo immigrants and their children will take generations ? and if small-government, morally traditionalist, pro-sovereignty conservatism is to have any chance of lasting political success during our lifetimes, future immigration must be curbed.
In order to keep ?Murka pearly white, Christian and heterosexual, we have to keep dark-skinned people out. Gotcha.
How exactly has conservative rhetoric changed in the past forty years?
