RE:"Cheap labor Republicans, of which Bush is one. The Dems just want those hispanic votes, the Republicans want their cheap sweat." Probably...OTOH, i don't think were going to be able to deleniate the Dems and Pubs quite so easily due to the issue...in the future. A lot of pubs are FED up with Bush and Congress. Bush's approval rating looks pretty bad at 36%...UNTIL you compare it to Congress' approval rating of 33%. Just tells me people are pissed...and not just at Bush like the Dems and media would like you to think.

<<Who started that mantra?>> <Cheap labor Republicans, of which Bush is one. The Dems just want those hispanic votes, the Republicans want their cheap sweat.> That mantra is utter BS as we both know. Chris who does the manual labor in SLC these days? Anyone who goes to many still milky white colder climate destinations like most of New England, upstate NY or Milwaukee would see American citizens who look like they've been here for generations performing most of the manual labor and low paying tasks. I think that cheap immigrant labor pool seems to work more with areas dominated by recent Mexicans immigrants and (or) agriculture. Here in SoFla a ton of immigrants just off the boat from Central and South America are making a killing in many of the trades after just a couple of years experience and a decent grasp of the English language.. Just more hocus pocus from our politicians. Throw em all out I say..
