Haven't these stupid racist morans ever heard of an anchor baby?
The term "anchor baby" is racist as hell, and I apologize, but we need to use the term for this post.

Anchor babies are children of illegal immigrants, normally Mexicans, who were born in US hospitals. Under the provisions of the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1965, a child born in the US is a natural-born US citizen upon his or her birth and can be used to gain US citizenship for an entire family, under that law's family reunification provisions. Google anchor babies and you'll run across a whole shitload of freeper-owned websites complaining about the practice.

First they complain because children with NO American-citizen parents are granted US citizenship based on the geography of their birthplace. Now they're complaining because President Obama, whose mom was an American, had one parent who wasn't a citizen. Would they just make up their Fucking Minds?

1. It's all about demographics - namely, keeping America as pure and pristine and WHITE as possible.
You know and I know that this is what much of the far right believes, and they need to have that shoved in their faces at every opportunity. Fuck these white-supremacist shitbags. Sideways. With something good and sharp.

:grr:

3. Oh my goodness. Are they in for a big shock!
They only have 34 more years, at most, to be in the majority....and then they are really screwed

White people of European descent will no longer make up a majority of the US population by the year 2042 - eight years sooner than previous estimates

5. Yes they are. And the GOP as we know it is soon to be dead in the water.
Hopefully...

8. Can't happen soon enough, if you ask me.
And that goes for both today's Republican party and tomorrow's promise of phenotype-mooshing.

Of course, the cynic in me thinks that even if people can't judge others simply by the color of their skin, they'll still judge them by their hair length, clothes, tattoos, or which car they still don't fly.

2. "Would they just make up their Fucking Minds?" No.
The GOPers bitch that liberals use moral relativism, well, this just proves the GOPers do what I now call "self-righteous relativism."

4. Everyone indulges in relativism. It's claiming to be objective that's the problem.
:P

9. People can be objective, just not on television or radio.

It takes time to be fair and objective and explain all sides.

Objectivity requires complexity and more than just bumper sticker-sized slogans or cliches.

There's no time for that kinda stuff on TV.
