Immigrant-Bashing Immigrants - Immigrant bashing.

Immigrant-Bashing Immigrants - Immigrant bashing. Ethnic stereotyping. Absolute intolerance of real diversity.

Isn't that what the Democrats way Republicans are all about?

Sergeant Stryker reports on a Nuremburgesque pro-Davis rally, starting with a Davis quote:

"'You shouldn't be governor unless you can pronounce the name of the state,' in an apparent reference to Schwarzenegger's Austrian accent.
The theme was picked up later in Alhambra at an Asian American rally against the recall. An appointee to the Workforce Investment Board, Sukhee Kang, suggested that Schwarzenegger's accent hindered his governing abilities.
'He can't even speak English well. How can he govern the state of California?' said Kang, who emigrated from South Korea in 1977 [emphasis added - Kang arrived in the US nearly a decade after Scwartzenegger], as he warmed up the crowd before Davis arrived.

The Sarge expresses my own disgust:

Uh...I'm sorry, my shallow reserves of wit fail me. I'm just trying to figure out what kind of a state I live in where Democratic picnics sound like neo-Nazi rallies and Korean immigrants bash on other people for not speaking English well. Greetings from the Hotel California. "

This recall is turning into a referendum between someone who's renounced his family's Nazi past, and those who are embracing something almost as bad.
