GOP shows its nazi side (literally)
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0804-01.htm
maybe other republicans dont say this so vocally, but they all support destroying immigration and welfare, id say he is just a test dummy to see how far they can go. At the rate this country is moving to the right...a constitutional ammendment in favor of eugenics will prob be in the works by 08.

1. Nah, not destroying immigration.
Despite all the rhetoric of the talk show hosts, Bush* is for giving some amnesty to illegal immigrants. This is because essentially the Republican Party is the party of cheap labor, despite how riled up they try to get people about immigration through their propaganda outlets.

2. True. Cheap-Labor Conservatives won't allow it.
And they're running the show.

3. Yes
his immigration reform would ensure immigrants remained poor and a large cheap labor pool. Which would then breed racism against latinos.

4. That having been said...
...Charles Murray's book Losing Ground was instrumental in promoting Reagan-style cuts to social welfare, and I don't have the information with me right now, but either that book or The Bell Curve had some research in it that had it's roots in eugenics. I know What Liberal Media? by Eric Alterman has information about this.
