Media's Race Baiters Lead Charge Against Arizona
By Dan Gainor

Both the media and the left know how they want to play this dont go for the jugular, go for the wallet.
printemailshare recommend (8) The old media love a great race so much that theyd rather double their pleasure by injecting racial politics into the 2010 congressional elections. They werent content with claiming conservatives were anti-black racists who wanted to restart the Civil War. Now the left and the media that support it are claiming that conservatives are anti-Hispanic racists who have re-launched the Mexican War as well.
That latest bogus claim follows the passage of a law in Arizona that essentially authorizes state law enforcement agencies to enforce federal statutes on immigration. Liberals are going ballistic over the law. Thats unsurprising, given 2010 is an election year and Democrats are doing poorly at the box office.
The media and others on the left have become so entangled on the issue that its almost impossible to sort out exactly who is leading the charge to halt the law, beat up on Arizona and welcome the estimated 12 to 20 million illegal immigrants into our nation's arms and pocketbook.
Once the law was signed by Arizona's governor those even-handed, professionally neutral journalists acted like they had joined La Raza. CBS "Early Show" co-host Harry Smith claimed to know the heart of every Hispanic in Arizona, asking Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.): And for the millions of Hispanic Americans who live in Arizona, what do you say to them, who feel like this bill is purely discriminatory?
