I don't disagree, but until I see you libs display a little of the outrage you have for the treatment of the homosexual community towards the treatment of, say, woman in Islamic countries, its hard to take you seriously.

Besides - gays have equal rights. What they want are special rights. I won't bother with them until they admit it.

Or that thing called 'affimative action' which gives people advantages based on race. Doesn't sound equal to me.

Because "whites" ever since this country was created, didn't have any advantage over American Indians ,Hawaiians and Eskimos..(you know people who are actually NATIVE TO THIS LAND CALLED AMERICA) correct? And lets not forget the Blacks who's forefathers were dragged to this country.Or the Hispanics were work in the fields and build your homes for the minimum of wages yet at one point owned much of what is now the Western United States!

All in the name of Manifest Destiny correct?

Now immigration is likely to reconvert Texas from Republican red to Democratic blue; Latinos may justly demand a bigger, more “Californian” state to educate them and provide them with decent health care.

Regardless of legal citizenship status

Yes it is clearly stated at least in the current draft of the Healthcare bill that illegal ailens would be covered. Ms. Pelosi insisted on it.

During consideration of the health care reform bill (H.R. 3200), the House Ways & Means Committee rejected an amendment that would have helped ensure illegal aliens would not receive taxpayer-funded health care benefits.
The amendment, offered by Rep. Dean Heller (R-NV), would have required the government to verify that enrollees in the "public plan" and applicants for "affordability credits" are not illegal aliens.

Ok, but where does it say Pelosi insisted that illegal aliens be covered? Where did she specifically say "I want illegal aliens to be covered by this health bill. I insist."

I'm not seeing it. I see that someone urged her to do it, but I don't see where she said "I insist." If you're going to criticize something, that's fine. But making up stuff about it doesn't add anything to the debate.

Maybe I'm having some reading comprehension problems, but nowhere in the article did I see that Nancy Pelosi insisted that illegal immigrants be covered.

I could urge Nancy Pelosi to exempt me from paying income tax, but that doesn't mean that she insisted that I be.

What these dems need to learn - perhaps the hard way (like many of us did with bush) - is that - if you are willing to follow Obama to the gates of hell... you must be careful.

because thats exactly where he might be leading you
