Eugene Volokh has another discussion of a Paul Craig Roberts article here. It ends with:

[I]t's a shame that the anti-race-preferences movement (which I support) and the anti-immigration movement (which I do not support, but which I think makes some serious claims that deserve serious consideration) are being represented -- and represented in leading conservative publications, such as the Washington Times and townhall.com -- by authors such as this.

First of all, the phrase "anti-immigration movement" is misleading: the U.S. not only has legal immigration, but the illegal kind as well. Since different people might have different opinions about both kinds of immigration, it's best not to combine that into one movement. There's even the related issue of American sovereignty being threatened by foreign governments which might be considered part of one or both movements.

Secondly, I don't recall electing PCR to represent my thoughts on immigration. I do welcome, however, the call for new spokespeople for the "anti-immigration movement", and I wonder why there are so few politicians speaking out on this issue.

Could it be because they're too busy looking either for illegal alien votes from their "constituents" or for cheap serf labor, or, in some cases, for both?

If Barbara Jordan were still alive, she'd be a good spokesperson for the "movement." But, there are at least a few other candidates, such as Michelle Malkin or Tom Tancredo. Their arguments are not anywhere near as easily dismissed as those of PCR.

However, regarding the "ethnic cleansing" mentioned in one of PCR's articles, perhaps there is a little bit of truth to that. Consider these quotes from Mario Obledo, past president of the "mainstream" group LULAC and co-founder of the "mainstream" group MALDEF:

"We're going to take over all the political institutions of California, in five years, we're going to be the majority population in this state. California is going to be a Hispanic state and anyone who doesn't like it should leave"

and

"Well, if they (Anglos) don't like Mexicans they ought to leave. They ought to go back to Europe."

(Listen to them, and read other scarrry quotes here.)

Now, certainly, we don't have house-to-house Balkans-style fighting (yet), but, don't those quotes at least suggest a bit of a desire for something that might be termed "ethnic cleansing?"

Parenthetically, regarding those Matricula Consular cards: doesn't acceptance of those cards violate, like, our laws? Thankfully, some politicians have found it within themselves to stand up for said laws and, if nothing else, consular protocol.
