I saw the interview. this is my reaction to the summary.
TO READERS OF THE HUFFINGTON POST
his political life, a primary challenge from talk show host, infomercial spokeswonk, former Representative J. D. Hayworth. If he (McCain)is to hang onto his conservative base against the uber -right upstart, he must make these silly comments out of the Arpaio/Brewer handbook consisting mainly of half-truths and hyperbole. Recall, please that this (Illegal immigration) was a non-issue until Joe Arpaio started his own brand of ethnic cleansing in Maricopa County. Lest anyone doubt the criminality of any person with dark skin who happens to speak Spanish, Joe and his cronies and followers paint an increasingly dire picture of Our Neighbor to the South as an entire country of Thieves, Murderers and Drug Cartels, Hellbent on the destruction of everything America Stands For. As tension mounted and tempers flared on both sides, reason fled and Sheriff Joe got his wish, a County and a Country divided over what is
American. The entire US is now hostage to the bigotry of a venal little man and his dopple-ganger, State Senator Russell Pearce. Between them, they have planted the notion in America's political psyche that all Mexicans are trying to invade our Country with the avowed intent of living a criminal life as a member of a vicious street gang. Go ahead and laugh. I read that very assertion in an essay by James Welch to which I replied in an earlier post.
