TV news is becoming totally worthless. Case in point CNN. It's the let's hate the wet backs channel. There's two kinds of people, us and them, and we need to build a wall to keep them out. As if illegal immigrants is a serious issue as compared the the Iraq Occupation that CNN helped sell. There's just no point in tuning in anymore because hating hispanics is all they talk about and I'm not into hating hispanics. Mexicans are generally hard working law abiding citizens and they deserve respect. Shame on CNN.
Our country (much like the rest of Terra) is set up to restrict people's movement. It helps to form the "we" vs. "they" mentality - it keeps the systems of ownership of the masses that we hold so near and dear to us in place. That's good for the powers that control us. That's why they are called boundaries and borders. This also helps form our religious beliefs as well. These are fundamental reasons why the planet Terra doesn't work - nor will it ever. We are culturally trained to reject others not from within our borders. Remember - it's differences that start wars - and this is a planet of survival - and military accomplishments. It's not that hard to make the leap from one concept to the other. Simply, we (humanity) are largely doomed - much like any group trying to survive is doomed if not working together. That's why religion is totally useless. It subjugates people to the reasoning that "we are better than them." Consequently, it does nothing to bring the people of Terra together. We all live on one planet, not thousands. Our epitaph will be "it was fun while it lasted."

Posted by: Mr. at July 23, 2006 05:41 PMI agree COMPLETELY with Lou Dobbs... At least he has the guts to say enough is enough... I live in Texas where 1/2 the state IS wetbacks and another 1/3 of the remaining look and ACT like wetbacks
Posted by: Tim at May 18, 2007 02:38 PMHere goes Lou Dobbs again... I think he is so sick to his stomach of seeing Mexican looking immigrants in USA. This guy only talk about illegal immigrants from Mexico and other South American countries. What about those blue-eyed illegal immigrants from Europe? I never heard him talk negative about these class of people. Lou Dobbs is so fake that he is using this issue as staging platform for his future political career. This guy only talk negative things about immigrants... without him knowing, his house was probably built by hard working illegal immigrants, his car is probably serviced by hard working illegal immigrants. And when he take his kids to to eat out at restaurants, the food was probably prepared by hard working illegal immigrants. I hope that GOD will forgive him for the way he treat immigrants.
