“Rep. Linda Sanchez told a local Democratic Club Tuesday that she believes white supremacist groups were behind the controversial Arizona law on immigration,” according to the Long Beach Press-Telegram.
Linda has always been more progressive than her sister, Loretta Sanchez, who used to be a Republican.
Kudos to Linda for standing up against the haters in Arizona! She is absolutely right.
Click here to hear audio of Linda’s comments.
“The Arizona laws are not a mistake,” said Sanchez, D-Lakewood, referring to Arizona’s S.B. 1070, that requires police enforcing another law to question a person about his or her immigration status if there is “reasonable suspicion” that the person is in the United States illegally and makes it a state crime to be in the country illegally.
“They’re not accidental or one person’s
crazy idea,” she said of the law. “There’s a concerted effort behind promoting these kinds of laws on a state-by-state basis by people who have ties to white supremacy groups,” Sanchez said.
“Late Thursday, Sanchez issued a statement attempting to “clarify” her comments,” according to the L.A. Times.
“I never said that everyone who supports the Arizona law is a racist or white supremacist,” she said in the statement.
Stick to your guns Linda! You were right the first time.
pedroza needs hits on this site so he post bubble heads sister . calling the az law done by white supremacist . SHE IS A RACIST .. horray for az for standing up against law breakers and mexcio first actvist like pedroza and sanchez. . stick to your gunz az the people of az are behing you and the u.sa is behind you by a large margin . the media wants to focus on little hispanic rallies and the 20 % of the public that supports the law breakers .
All I can say to this one, “what, a friggin nut case!”
michell all the nuts are in s.a, maywood , la. , they all have something in common hmmmmm. boycott santa ana . oops we dont need to no one goes there expect illegals .
The bitch needs to prove it.
Why is it if your against something illegal, you are considered a racist? Should we advocate breaking the law? Is that what you would be content with?
I would love an answer…
I hope that every American, regardless of where he lives, will stop and examine his conscience about this and other related incidents. This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds. It was founded on the principle that all men are created equal, and that the rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened. All of us ought to have the right to be treated as he would wish to be treated, as one would wish his children to be treated, but this is not the case.
I know the proponents of this law say that the majority approves of this law, but the majority is not always right. Would women or non-whites have the vote if we listen to the majority of the day, would the non-whites have equal rights (and equal access to churches, housing, restaurants, hotels, retail stores, schools, colleges and yes water fountains) if we listen to the majority of the day? We all know the answer, a resounding, NO!
Today we are committed to a worldwide struggle to promote and protect the rights of all who wish to be free. In a time of domestic crisis men of good will and generosity should be able to unite regardless of party or politics and do what is right, not what is just popular with the majority. Some men comprehend discrimination by never have experiencing it in their lives, but the majority will only understand after it happens to them.
Funny!!! all the crap load about “all men are equal” blah blah blah… And totally disapprove the US federal immigration law, plus despite the democrat way which majority rules… while at the same time demanding all the right to have free public services, right to admit to emergency paying by tax dollar, right to utilize free public education… Ain’t live great for being illegals in this great country of the USA?
Fact, your contributions to this country are minimal while what you are taking are now unbearable for those tax payers. Have a courtesy to get up and get out. I’m sure the French is welcoming any race over there. Don’t let sharks stop your dream “all men are equal”. By the way, God didn’t make all men are equal. Why should any nation be any better than God himself? God hater?

The bitch needs to prove it.
Below is some imformation for your benefit “BIATCHI”
The major sponsor of, and legislative force behind, the bill was State Senator Russell Pearce, who had long been one of Arizona’s most vocal opponents of illegal immigration[32] and who had successfully pushed through several prior pieces of tough legislation against those he termed “invaders on the American sovereignty”.[33][34] Much of the drafting of the bill was done by Kris Kobach,[34] a professor at the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law[35] and a figure long associated with the Federation for American Immigration Reform who had written immigration-related bills in many other parts of the country.[36] Pearce and Kobach had worked together on past legislative efforts regarding immigration, and Pearce contacted Kobach when he was ready to pursue the idea of the state enforcing federal immigration laws.[34] The Arizona State Senate approved an early version of the bill in February 2010.[32] Saying, “Enough is enough,” Pearce stated figuratively that this new bill would remove handcuffs from law enforcement and place them on violent offenders.[19][37]
Federation for American Immigration Reform( FAIR)
Criticism
In December 2007, FAIR was identified as a “hate group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).[35] FAIR has responded to this charge by claiming that there is no factual basis for the accusation;[36] that FAIR has compiled a long record of mainstream credibility and respect on immigration issues and has always opposed discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, or religion; and that the accusation is an “act of desperation, resulting from the SPLC’s failure to convince the American people of their viewpoint.”[37]
FAIR has been criticized by the International Relations Center as producing “policy rhetoric [that] is often inflammatory, clearly anti-immigrant, and partisan.”[38] In 2005, an article by Leonard Zeskind in the liberal political magazine, The American Prospect, called FAIR “the anti-immigration movement’s most powerful institution”.[39] It further asserted FAIR has cooperated with “white nationalists”.[39]
FAIR has also been criticized for accepting contributions from the Pioneer Fund. Between 1982 and 1994, FAIR received $1.2 million from the foundation.[39] The Pioneer Fund focuses on projects it perceives will not be easily funded due to controversial, racial, or pro-eugenics subject matter.[40] It was described by the Sunday Telegraph as a “neo-Nazi organization closely integrated with the far right in American politics” in 1989.[41] FAIR has responded to this criticism by asserting that the Fund clearly states that it supports equal opportunity for all Americans, regardless of race, religion, national origin, or ethnicity; that other major institutions, including universities and medical facilities in the United States and other countries, have also accepted grants from the Fund;[42] and that the Fund’s contributions to FAIR were used only for the general operation of the organization.[37]

These are facts:
All available data show illegal Mexican immigrants produce more than they consume.
From Wikipedia:
Illegal immigrants arriving in recent years tend to be better educated than those who have been in the country a decade or more. A quarter of all immigrants who have arrived in recent years have at least some college education.
“All available data show illegal Mexican immigrants produce more than they consume.” Where the prove(s)? The last I heard, 12 millions illegals (all races) and directly/non-directly cost CA more than billion of dollar a year. Illegals don’t pay tax, if so, they must stole IDs and that become ID theft which is major ILLEGAL in this country. Most money made by illegals sent back to their countries, NOT USA. Unemployed illegals then become gangsters, drug dealers, etc. In AZ, kidnap by Mexican mafia has become the #1 in the US. Those are some of the society problems, should I start talking about how illegals consume tax money that supposed to go to the citizens and legal residents of a country?
About quarter of the illegals are college graduated. WHO CARES?
1. US first of don’t want or need them here.
2. Their college degrees are worthless in this country
3. If they are that indispensable, should companies that hired them provide work visa to keep them here LEGALLY?
What a joke!!!
now the doctor drank the pedroza soda . mexican immigrants produce more than they consume . YOU LEFT OUT THE FAMOUS PEDROZA WORD . ILLEGALS DONT . .illegals cost this state more than they produce in schools , medical cost , jail housing . so dont try to pull that pedroza line . every sane person on this blog knows that .

Who are you calling white folk to discriminate against exactly. Are you saying gang bangers and far left Hispanic groups are going to take over the USA?
We are saying in a few more years when the anchor babies grow up and vote for their own RACE (racist?), CA will definitely become Mexico and inherits all the problems from Mexico such as corruption, drugs, mafia… Soon, Californians will have to run for the borders of the nearby states. I wonder AZ will then have to have a new law that block Californian from illegally entering its land?

Your propaganda is 100% wrong.
sorry doc i cant read your mind that is what you wrote . AND YOUR WRONG ILLEGALS COST THIS STATE MORE THAN THEY PRODUCE . IM SURE YOU WILL COME UP WITH A 8 PAGES STATS . from where ?
Dr Lomeli,
I’m edified to read the info you posted regarding the origins of the white supremacist-based legislation of AZ. This blog suffers the latent antiHispanics and the blatant fools for the cause of free speech. It’s mysterious why they keep comin’ back. I guess they like the attention from smart folks! Thanks Doc!
Stupids need education somehow and I have some free times on my hand. What can I say… I’m nice person. Learn while you still can, dumba**.

You should ask Paul for his Stats. He can not produce them as his message is pure propaganda.

However, this country is a democracy. Democracy is when the majority decide what to do, even if there wrong. If you hate democracy, Benito, please move.

“TheOther”
MQ says:
Yeah, the OTHER not so smart:)
OMG, no wonder the Americans won!
Truer than you know Quinn.
“The Other” is American born and bred (I know her) and you’re not.
Is she blond?
As we all know, American born as well as born of illegal immigrants are not always good for this country!
I was born to be an American:P
“All Men are created equal”! The founders had it right, when attempting to form a perfect union and they also knew that they were not there yet but knew we one day would get there. Lincoln moved us forward as did JFK and LBJ. This Nation was founded by men of many nations and backgrounds. It was founded on the principle that all men are created equal, and that the rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened.
It is my contention that this AZ law is not constitutional and will fail when challenged (unless, of course, they keep adding more amendments), pretty funny for this so called perfect law, that many internet blogs claim it was copied “Word for Word” from the Federal law, which I frankly do not believe, if it was then no amendments would have been made, right?, of course.
As for the undocumented workers, as was attributed to Ronald Reagan “It’s the Economy, Stupid”. When the economy is good we say let’s all celebrate “Cinco de Mayo, my brothers” but when the economy is down “it’s all your fault, you damn immigrant”. This too will pass. The real problem is the narcos/drug and people smuggler that’s what the focus should be on.
Don’t you find it funny that no one ever voted for Brewer for Governor, it’s all about politics and getting elected, do not be fooled. Busy Brewer has passed S.B. 1070, no permit conceal weapons law, the famous Birthers law, banning Ethic studies law, (could she be behind the Mural in Prescott, Arizona) and if history is a lesson she should look up Arizona’s House Bill 2779 from two years ago (which failed when legally challenged) and the craziest one the boycotted Martin Luther King Day, not wanting another holiday, how crazy is that. I believe there is an undercurrent to their enactment of new laws, they real love following a distinct pattern. Poor Brewer, last week, she first she said her Dad had died in Germany fighting the Nazi in World War II (war ended 1945) and we find out her father was never in Germany and died in California in 1955 (watch the spin doctors go into overdrive) and then she went to Washington and came back empty as always, poor dear.

But in the case of the Mexican gang member’s, our accent was the saving grace. Glad we where the ones standing there and not some poor American couple!
Nice lads though! We did not have a lengthly conversation, they did not speak very much English. Celtics and Man united was about all we could understand!
If any one can say they are IRISH-AMERICAN it would be me, because I really am IRISH born who became an American!
The Tea Bag Party are just “haters not debaters” or as others have dubbed them “screamers not dreamers”, with their failed attempts at stopping Healthcare reform, they say they respect the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the Declaration of Independence but they do not mind passing laws, through weak Governors (no one voted for this crazy) who only cares about getting elected Governor, on the backs of undocumented workers, that will not pass Constitution muster.
Brewer signed into law;
1. S.B. 1070,
2. No permit conceal weapons law,
3. The famous Birthers law,
4. Banning Ethic studies law,
5. Could she be behind the Mural in Prescott, Arizona, ordered to be whiten,
6. On deck to pass, no citizenship to babies born to undocumented workers,
7. If she can read she should look up Arizona’s House Bill 2779 from two years ago (which was un-constitution and failed when legally challenged),
8. The boycotted Martin Luther King Day, what idiots don’t want another holiday? Yes, you guessed it Arizona.
Well Arizona, you can boycott new holidays and keep passing crazy laws and the rest of us will continue to challenged them in a court of law and continue to add cities to our Boycott of your state.
I real cannot believe anything that comes out of Brewer’s mouth, in an interview she first said her father had died in Germany fighting the Nazi in World War II (war ended 1945) but of course we find out the truth that father was never in Germany and died in California in 1955. But we are suppose to believe everything else she says, right!
As for the Tea Bag Party, their phony patriotism is sickening; they are just racists going by another name. We all know you are just itching to put a sheet on their head? Let’s face it the Republicans had eight years to deal with health care, immigration, energy (remember Cheney’s secret meetings with oil companies where loosening regulation and oversight were sealed), climate change and financial oversight and governance and they failed. It appears that the Republican Party is only good at starting wars (two in eight years, with fat contracts to friends of Cheney/Bush) but not at winning wars as seen by the continuing line of body bags that keep coming home. The Republicans party will continue turned inward to their old fashion obstructionist party (and their Confederacy appreciation roots) because they continue to allow a small portions (but very loud portion) of their party of “birthers, baggers and blowhards” to rule their party. I will admit that this fringe is very good at playing “Follow the Leader” by listening to their dullard leaders, Beck, Hedgecock, Hannity, O’Reilly, Rush, Savage, Sarah Bailin, Orly Taitz, Victoria Jackson, Michele Bachmann and the rest of the Blowhards and acting as ill programmed robots (they have already acted against doctors that perform abortions).
The Birthers and the Tea Bag party crowd think they can scare, intimidate and force others to go along with them by comments like “This time we came unarmed”, let me tell you something not all ex-military join the fringe militia crazies who don’t pay taxes and run around with face paint in the parks playing commando, the majority are mature and understand that the world is more complicated and grey than the black and white that these simpleton make it out to be and that my friend is the point. The world is complicated and people like Hamilton, Lincoln, and Roosevelt believed that we should use government a little to increase social mobility, now it’s about dancing around the claim of government is the problem. The sainted Reagan passed the biggest tax increase in American history and as a result federal employment increased, but facts are lost when mired in mysticism and superstition. For a party that gave us Abraham Lincoln, it is tragic that the ranks are filled with too many empty suits and the crazy Birthers who have not learned that the way our courts work is that you get a competent lawyer, verifiable facts and present them to a judge, if the facts are real and not half baked internet lies, then, and only then, do you proceed to trial. The Birthers seem to be having a problem with their so called “Internet facts”. Let’s face it no one will take the Birthers seriously until they win a case, but until then, you will continue to appear dumb, crazy or racist, or maybe all three. I heard that Orly Taitz now wants to investigate the “Republican 2009 Summer of Love” list: Assemblyman, Michael D. Duvall (CA), Senator John Ensign (NV), Senator Paul Stanley (TN), Governor Mark Stanford (SC), Board of Ed Chair, and Kristin Maguire AKA Bridget Keeney (SC), she wants to re-establish a family values party, that is like saying that the Catholic Church cares about the welling being of children in their care, too late for that. Yee Haw!
