Boston Racist Talk Radio

In one of the bluest of blue states is a growing angry right wing political movement that harkens back to the early days when racism was cool, when it was okay to look down on your fellow man with disgust because they simply just did not fit in. Boston and New England has been doing this very same thing generation after generation for centuries and the only thing that has changed is the nationality or race of the people that the blue bloods attack. Trust me, I grew up with an Archie Bunker father but a Maude mother, and thank God above for my mother!

Jay Severin in the Boston talk radio media thought it was okay to deface an entire people based on the swine flue that has raced across the nation just like every other flue. His racist attitude and derogatory comments towards everyone that is of Mexican descent is disgusting and I for one that happens to live in New England will not put up with it. Check out this video from Ed Schultz from MSNBC on the self righteous pig that Severin is…

Criminaliens? Please tell me that Jay Severin is not the “Potential” spokesman for the new Republican Party! I would so much love it if he were. Then I could go toe to toe with him and just label him as a bigot and a racist. Then I could go on as to how the same mentality screwed over Irish immigrants from the 1860’s to the 1930’s and beyond until my ancestors learned to join the democracy and change the system to an American inclusive society where the Irish ran the police departments, they ran the city governments, and they eventually immigrated to the federal government. Eventually, elected an Irish Catholic to the Presidency and a Speaker of the House, Tip O’Neil. These same Irish Jay Severin would have called the scum of society and the least "Primitive" of people at the time. Tell you what Mr. Severin, my Irish grandfather was your so called Mexican less than one hundred years ago and I have no patience for your intollerance of your fellow man just because they look different or happen to speak a language you do not understand.

Jay Severin is racist, an elitist, and a wealthy man that made his money off of the backs of citizens that think it is still cool to use the term “Wet Back” or “Nigger” or any other racist terminology to describe an American citizen that he believes threatens his great white race. What pisses Jay Severin off is the fact that someone of Mexican descent actually worked thier ass off to afford and pay a mortgage, buy a house, and they had the audacity to move into his closeted yet in his mind perfect definition of what the world should be. A world where everyone is white, everyone is blonde and blue eyed, preferably from Iceland, and they will all bow to his demand that he has a far higher intellect than everyone he knows or condescends to speak to. Jay Severin is a racist scumbag and the radio station he works for and their advertisers should have nothing to do with his message of hate.

Jay Severin and his lawyers or spokesman will try to spin this into a Liberal and left wing hanging of the opposition. That is what I would do. In respect to the rest of the crew of WTKK FM Talk Radio in Boston, Jay should just take his opinions out of New England much like the Dinosaurs moved on to greener pastures and into the history and science books we all learn from today. Take his hate of all Hispanics and his definition of "Criminaliens" off to the lands he sees as the perfect society. Maybe the rest of the WTKK staff will survive if he just exit’s the species that is talk radio on this extreme right wing radio station. My apologies to Jim Braude, the lone Liberal still on the air at WTKK 96.9 FM.

“No Jay Severin’s need apply here“. That should be, and is a sign you can proudly put up in your window or store front. You sir, Jay Severin, get a formal “Screw You” Papamoka one finger salute! America and her melting pot of people have no time for you or the folks that think or believe like you that we can blame any nationality for our nations problems. When the Mexican argument of blame runs out, who is he going to go after next? Think about it!

Census Bureau Cancels Deportation in 2010

Counting of the people every ten years is one hell of a tough job and I can understand the dilemma of the Census Bureau when counting illegal immigrants to America. Their job is in fact to count all of the people regardless of citizenship or legality of that residency requirement.

As liberal and blue state blooded that I am I find it ridiculous for the Census Bureau to request that immigration enforcement agencies stop deportation of illegal aliens for any time period. Any person that works with numbers on a daily basis knows that if you deliberately take out any part of the equation it will skew the results that the experiment is looking to study. Stopping the legal government deportation of illegal aliens would make the next census useless.

That is where the hairs on the back of my neck go up and low and behold that same request would feed into the hands of the political philosophy that immigrants are a pox on America. Making illegal immigrants look like an invasion on our shores would feed into what political machine in 2012?

Immigrants are a constant in the American population whether you like it or not. Stopping the deportation process for any reason serves only one purpose and that is to make all immigrants, legal or illegal a political weapon for political parties to stand against.

Over at the Chicago Tribune they have this to say about the request to stop deportation in 2010...

Census Bureau Wants to Halt 2010 Raids

WASHINGTON - The Census Bureau wants immigration agents to suspend enforcement raids during the 2010 census so the government can better count illegal immigrants.

Raids during the population count would make an already distrustful group even less likely to cooperate with government workers who are supposed to include them, the Census Bureau's second-ranking official said in an Associated Press interview.

Deputy Director Preston Jay Waite said immigration enforcement officials did not conduct raids for several months before and after the 2000 census. But today's political climate is even more volatile on the issue of illegal immigration.

Snip - A - Roooooo

Arturo Vargas, executive director of the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, said the intense debate over immigration has made immigrants even more suspicious of the government today.

"The Census Bureau has a job to do," said Vargas, who belongs to a committee that advises the bureau on the 2010 census. "They need to convince people that they need to report themselves to the federal government and that it's going to remain confidential. That's a hard sell."

Supporters of stricter immigration laws said the whole discussion of suspending raids shows that the immigration system is broken.

"If you don't enforce your laws, this is what you are going to get, one agency asking another agency to subvert the law," said Steven Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates stricter enforcement of immigration laws. - Chicago Tribune

I’m guessing that this is just a political chess game that will play out a couple of years down the road in the race for president in 2012. You have to really think long term when it comes to issues like immigration. Both political parties are fighting the procedures and laws required to fix it so who is up to this latest strategy? That is an answer I don’t have. Just something for you to tuck away in the back of your mind to think about a few years from now.

Same paper and the same article…

One lawmaker said she thinks "it's nuts" for the Census Bureau to ask for a break in enforcement.

"I don't know what country the Census Bureau is living in," Rep. Candice Miller, R-Mich., said in a telephone interview from her district. "I can tell them the American people have grown sick and tired of their immigration laws not being enforced. They are not going to tolerate enforcement being suspended for any amount of time."

The Constitution requires the Census Bureau to count everyone, including illegal immigrants, in the census. The once-a-decade population count is then used to apportion seats in Congress and to appropriate billions of dollars in federal spending each year.

Miller has introduced a constitutional amendment that would apportion seats in Congress based only on the number of U.S. citizens in each state. - Chicago Tribune

One question regarding this latest point in the article and this Congressional Members outrage, isn’t the Census Bureau under the Bush administration? Could this be micro managing by President Cheney… I mean Bush on forwarding the agenda of promoting the party politic?

I for one do not trust any lawmakers that want a Constitutional Amendment change when we have a perfectly good Congress and Senate at our disposal. What the hell is she so afraid of?

Immigrants are coming to our shores from every single nation around the world and changing our Constitution is not the answer. Changing the laws regarding immigration so that it works is the only answer.

My wife forwarded me an email recently that talked about the trials in life in comparison to boiling water that is our daily lives and what is put into it. Carrots in boiling water become soft and change to suit the temperature of the water. Eggs become hard when boiled and loose the ability to change forever other than a solid. Coffee beans however change the boiling water around them to become something for all to enjoy. That my friends is the melting pot that is America. Those of us that fear change the most are the people and leaders to fear the most.
