I remember you from your days at the Tennessean, where I didn't always agree with you, especially regarding Bush, but you are intellectually honest. Regarding this post, these two have a history. There is a famous You Tube video of the two of them shouting on O'Reilly's show, about immigration of course. I recently read Geraldo's recent book HisPanic, which was a well argued, cogent argument about the benefits Latinos, and others, have brought to the national fabric. But here in Tennessee, with a new majority of conservatives in both houses statewide, we are probably going to see some no-nothing legislation pretty soon. And of course, here in deep blue Davidson county, there is a January ballot initiative to make English the official language. But it seems that the anti-immigration craziness has faded, at least temporarily, nationwide, which is a good thing. We'll see how the national Democrats handle it if and when it comes up again.Chris1974https://www.blogger.com/profile/17572479948358106991noreply@blogger.com
