Follow up on the broken LA Times link that RgrF posted.

This is like a popularity contest and the loser is sore.

I don't see Perino's or Dobbs' comments as anti-Latino. If anything they are anti-union comments because that's an easier target than disparaging ethnicity or culture. Along the way they wildly missed the part where Chavez lived is life with Christian values by helping others.

And here's another, from the second link right above:

"On Easter Sunday, Google is honoring the birthday of the late labor organizer Cesar Chavez by placing a Chavez portrait within the middle 'o' of the Google logo that appears on the home page of the popular search engine," the Daily Caller reported.

There's that L-word again.

The only latino defense I've read of the supposed outrage came from that 3rd link above, Hispanic Pundit, who represents people who disagreed with Chavez' immigration stance.

Non-crazy conservatives are just as wrong.

More classic examples of the attitude that drives this impasse in politics, government and society.
I have your posts to rely on.
