Hysteria!

She is coming. Coming to Washington D.C. Elvira Arellano, the evil face of Hispanic illegal immigration, is coming to pray and fast on the National Mall September 12th to protest her impending sentence of banishment from the USA. The hard working mother is the innocent victim of an anti-Hispanic, anti-illegal immigrant hysteria that is sweeping some sectors of our once open and loving society. No one is immune from this racial hared. Arch conservative Arizona Senator John McCain has recently disclosed that he has received death threats for his stance that illegals could have a long and difficult path to eventual recognition and citizenship. This common sense approach supported by a broad swath of politicians from both parties has become entangled by the need for GOP presidential candidates to go "as far right" as possible as they vie for the nomination of their party. Exploiting this fear and hatred, possible contender, Newt Gingrich has used the horrific shootings in Newark, New Jersey as an example of what happens when the illegals are allowed to run free in our country. Obviously this is pandering of the worst kind. If there was a program to identify illegals then criminals like those who shot four innocent African-Americans in Newark could have been brought to justice look before the horrible incident took place. So that brings us back to Ms. Arellano. She is actually the face of the great majority of illegal immigrants: Spanish speaking and hard working. Elvira is the mother of one son and all she wants to do is work, support her family, and do what she can to survive. She has been living in a Chicago area United Methodist Church where even the feds are fearful of storming to remove her. However, the blood lust of the right knows no bounds and the days are probably numbered when a young innocent woman and child will find sanctuary in God's house.
