Sen. McCain hates Mexicans and "the children"!

Senator McCain has the nerve to point a finger at the opponents of his amnesty proposal and suggest they are evil and do not care about the children and families of immigrants. Seems he has been rubbing elbows with the pinkos in Congress to long and has now adopted their “save the children card”.

Simply amazing what the proponents of amnesty are saying about those who want nothing more than existing laws to be enforced with regard to immigration: “why are you a xenophobe? “, or, “why are you a racist”?, or, “why do you hate brown people” ? and now, “why do you hate kids and Mexicans?”

Seems to me it is Senator McCain and the promoters of the amnesty bill who do not care about the health and safety of Mexican children whose parents immigrated here legally and were screened for TB, hepatitis, and other health concerns. Surely the supporters of amnesty know that the children of legal immigrants in bordering states with Mexico are now being exposed to contagious and deadly diseases brought in by illegal aliens who are invading our borders and have avoided being screened for such diseases. See: Preventing and Controlling Tuberculosis Along the U.S.-Mexico Border

Quote:

“TB disease among foreign-born persons living in the United States is increasing. In 1999, 43% (7,553) of the 17,531 TB cases reported in the United States were among foreign-born persons, compared with 24% (6,262) of the 25,701 cases reported in 1990. In 1999, Mexico was the country of origin for 23% (1,753) of all foreign-born persons with TB. Of TB cases among Mexican-born persons, three fourths were reported from the four U.S. states bordering Mexico: California, 820 cases; Texas, 364 cases; Arizona, 67 cases; and New Mexico, 17 cases (3). In 1999, TB cases among Mexican-born persons represented approximately 25% of all reported TB in the four border states. Incidence of TB was higher for the majority of border counties than the national TB rate. TB is brought into the United States from Mexico and Central America in three ways: a) persons with active TB disease move northward across the border; b) persons with latent TB infection experience active disease after arrival in the United States; or c) U.S. residents touring Mexico, including immigrants, acquire TB disease after returning to the United States (4--7). After a person with TB enters the United States, further transmission might occur, which contributes to TB morbidity in the United States directly from source patients and indirectly from their contacts.”
Now, Mr. McCain, how about telling us why you hate kids and Mexicans who have immigrated to America legally, and why you are willing to expose these legal immigrants to deadly diseases being brought into America by illegal aliens who you would grant amnesty to, and have avoid being screened for T.B. and other health concerns, and would remain unscreened under you proposal?

We are waiting for your answer Mr. McCain......
