Hispanic forum for presidential candidates

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton joined three other Democratic presidential candidates this morning at a forum in downtown Washington sponsored by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute.
If you were looking for emotion and passion, you should have skipped the speech by the Democratic frontrunner.
Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware was all fired up when he declared, “The immigration debate has been a race to the bottom.’’ He told the audience that the majority of undocumented immigrants don’t speak Spanish and argued that people leave their home countries to come to the United States illegally “because there’s desperation.’’ He drew an analogy to his Irish ancestors who came here for a better life.
Meanwhile, former Sen. Mike Gravel asserted that if it’s illegal to come here to support a family, “there’s something immoral’’ about the law. He took note that the first U.S. soldier killed in Iraq was a Latino who wasn’t a citizen of the United States.
Clinton, on the other hand, raced through a relatively dispassionate litany of her campaign proposals in the 15 minute period she was allowed to speak, covering topics such as her proposals for universal health care, universal pre-kindergarten and an immigration policy that reunites families. In the area of job opportunities for Latinos, she talked about an internship program. She also drew attention to the fact that her campaign manager, Patti Solis Doyle, is Hispanic.

Governor Eliot Spitzer is right, and he is a hero!
Those bandit and scoundrel republicans are dividing our society with scare tactics. They are trying to make our country hatemonger’s country. We welcome immigrants and their contribution to our society. The Americans who claim not to have jobs and complaining are the lazy scum of our society; we are hard working proud Americans who are not afraid to help the poor and make our society a welcoming society. Governor Eliot Spitzer is a real American whom our forefathers should be proud of. I pray to God he prevails, in which case he already did. For those of you, hateful dirt(s), go join the KKK, live in a trailer somewhere in the South in remote swaps, marry your closest, and do yourself a favor; don’t pollute our welcoming state and our country with your hate speeches. After all is it not a republican who was preying on young boy interns, and the other who took his family value straight to the rest room looking for perverts at least that was told. We are God fearing good and clean Americans, not thieves and perverts. Spitzer is right, let the poor dream as well.
Thank you, may God bless Spitzer and our country; may God give your hateful heart the scent of worship and care. And when I say worship is not worshipping the hateful rep., the overweight and ugly Congressman James Sensenbrenner, whose cholesterol level still out scores his ego and hatred. Why don’t he focus on his health and eating habits rather than scaring Americans with his inflated fear tactics, back room politics and poisons bills; he might as well go and work for groups like the K.K.K. We are a welcoming nation; we feed the poor; we pray to God; we love and respect our family, neighbors and God’s creatures. Why don’t we listen to star citizens such as the priests who devoted their lives for the good of men and God; who are telling us to be kind, why do we follow a no good liar republican politician?
It simply beats logic away. Go Spitzer and alike, enough of these lies.
No more voting republican for me.
