1. COMMENT

Republican Immigration Swamp

A Washington Post editorial observes "It's a fair guess that
this cruel campaign of immigrant-bashing will eventually turn
toxic for the Republican Party itself, whose own strategists
(Karl Rove, among others) have long grasped the growing
electoral clout of Hispanics. Those Hispanic voters, native-born
or not, are anxious and angry about the intensifying nativist
zeal in political rhetoric, which many are rightly blaming on
the Republicans. In a new survey by the Pew Hispanic Center,
half of all Hispanics in America reported that the debate on
immigration has had a specific negative impact on their lives;
41 percent said that they or someone close to them had suffered
discrimination in the past five years -- up from 31 percent in
2002."

3. Items

(a) H-1C Visas for Registered Nurses

Greg Siskind writes "One of the few immigration measures passed
in the last Congress was the extension of a little known nurse
visa category called the H-1C. In November 2006, Congress
approved legislation to extend the H-1C program for three more
years. The program remains unchanged in substance."

(a) Dear Weekly Editor:
Ignorance is as evill as too much knowledge. If you know little
or some of what you are trying to fight it is dangerous. However
if you know too much this also causes damage to whatever you are
fighting about.

Gladys C Farris
