This weekend, not thousands, but hundreds of thousands of immigrants and their supporters walked through the streets of American cities.  In Dallas alone, an estimated half a million marched peacefully and waved flags.  American flags.

We should be ashamed.

Let's face the fact; Democrats seem to be all over the place on the issue of immigration reform. Even self-proclaimed progressives can't seem to reach any consensus on this issue. Without fail, every discussion about immigration will at some point degenerate into accusations of racism, naiveté, and ignorance. We need to get a handle on this issue soon because the Republicans are about to create a storm of anti-immigrant backlash in the upcoming elections and Joe Sixpack is ready to choke it all down willingly. If you thought the Right Wing "Blame it all on the gays" campaign was something, wait till "It's all the "illegals' fault" starts showing up in the daily talking points. What's the matter with Kansas?... Illegals of course.
