Drug Wars... Pig Flu... Earthquakes... Crappy Economy... Widespread Corruption... El Tri under performing in the WC qualifiers...
It sounds like things are just awful south of the border. I imagine that this will only strengthen anti-immigration sentiments here.

Simple answer: Yes.
But then again, I'm Puerto Rican so we feel we're pretty much better than anyone else in Latin America.

Imagine a epidemic that has kills 100 Americans every day, 13,000 already this year and is on target to kill 23,000 more in 2009 alone. Glenn Beck would be in full panic mode. Imagine the outrage....never mind, it's the regular flu. www.cnn.com/2009/HEALTH/04/28/regular.flu/ |

If anything, it's good to see that Michelle Bachmann is as crazy on this issue as she is one every other issue. |

Swine Flu = Another Media-Created Crisis. What does this even mean? Did MSNBC create the disease in their labs? Or do you think the WHO and CDC are just lying? |

So far, one death in U.S. from swine flu. 36,000 deaths in U.S. annually from regular flu. Why do we have 24/7 coverage on TV and in other media on swine flu? It's their latest Natalie Holloway. |

The amazing thing is that most of his listeners aren't going to see any disconnect there. |
