WE RETURN with a call for action! The DREAM Act is up for a vote. Despite the fact that as usual, politicians play cynical games of expediency with people’s lives, there is cause for enthusiasm and happiness. So get on that phone! Also featuring the vaunted political Beer Test.
WE ARE SERENADED and handled by sociopathically-skilled master paraders. The Good Cop/Bad Cop dynamic shuttles us from room to room eliciting the desired confession and appropriate gratitude. Meanwhile, the People dance and still struggle, while the sun turns Glenn Beck’s tears into blood diamonds.
![Indivisible [Thoughts on the Immigration Rally in DC]](http://theunapologeticmexican.org/elmachete/wp-content/themes/UMXRevolutionarysRag/thumb.php?src=http://theunapologeticmexican.org/elmachete/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/HORIZindivisible.jpg&w=372&h=100&zc=1&q=95)
TO GIVE YOU A PEEK INTO THE IMMIGRATION RALLY that I attended on Sunday in Washington, DC, I’ve embedded a slideshow of the fotos I took. Come time for the next News With Nezua, I’ll have a video for you to watch. I can only hope that I can convey to you some of the energy that was filling the National Mall.
LIKE A FAVORITE CHESS GAME, the White House plays with its constituency, with it’s Latin@ constituency, with its pro-migrant constituency. Their actions show not a preference for humanitarian or People-centric legislation, but one for prison profits.
A COALITION OF VOICES claiming to be acting in the interest of the undocumented are suggesting that they not be counted by the Census. This idea is so wrongheaded that it is a kindness to call it only an honest mistake.
CARMEN D: In 2004, President George Bush garnered 44% of the Latino vote and pundits everywhere declared that “Hispanics” were conservative, and might provide a growing base of support for the Republican party going forward. It was a reasonable hypothesis, I guess…
DEAR MISTER PRESIDENT ELECT: You are too smart to pretend you don’t see all this. So I say if you do not act on it and soon, you are nodding along with this scourge that threatens both our peoples and the whole nation as a consequence. And I know I don’t need to be overly direct about this, but I will anyway:
NOBODY likes to think this way, yet we are well aware of how much the Right does not want to let go of the grip on power they thought they had and thought they would have forever. From Delay to Rove to Bush; from the last two stolen elections to the recent DOJ vote purge, the thieving Republicans have shown us that Democracy means nada to them. So we must prepare.
¡BIENVENIDOS! And welcome to our Carne Blogsada Sábado Roundup wherein I feature brief commentary and links on a few news topics that may be important to Latin@s y los otros and some choice links harvested from the fruitful and fertile blogsoil of El Blogarrio. Enjoy!
ALREADY, voting is under way. After two stolen elections which brought us the loathesome idiot George W. Bush; the criminal negligent George W. Bush; the Miserable Failure George W. Bush, who in turn brought us thousands upon thousands of corpses in the ground, dollars in the fire, and terror in the air—I can’t think of a more important election. And it seems the tension is already on, judging by at least one story out of Ohio.
House of Nezua
the XOLAGRAFIK theater!
