When I was a kid, they were always telling us how horrible it was to live in Russia under the thumb of those EVIL PINKO COMMIES. One of the most terrifying items they shared was that the law could stop citizens at any time for no reason at all and ask to see their papers! And that if their papers weren’t entirely in order, those citizens could be thrown in jail! With no recourse!
Thank God UH-MERR-CUH is nothing like PINKO COMMIE RUSSIA.
Think about the right wing republican latinos and latinas who live or travel in Arizona, ethnically betrayed by their own party. I can hear it now;
“Hey, where has Orlando been?” “I haven’t seen him around lately.”
“Haven’t you heard?”
“The cops picked him up at the tea party rally for BWB.”
“BWB?”
“Yeah, Breathing While Brown. ”
Next: Orlando has a re-awakening at the voting booth.
Or:
Orlando, a first generation Mexican-American, who has voted straight republican since he was old enough to vote, has recently returned from his fourth tour in Iraq.
He has lived in Mesa, Arizona all his life, and angers easily when he hears liberal rhetoric criticizing the failures of the Bush administration. He has attended town hall meetings during the healthcare debates, and carried a sign depicting Obama with a Hitler moustache.
Just the other day, Orlando went to pick up a pack of cigarettes at the local store. He chatted with the owner in Spanish, his first language. Despite learning English at an early age, he still speaks it with a heavy accent.
Meanwhile, outside the police hearing Orlando and the store owner speak, are waiting. Too bad Orlando forgot to bring his birth certificate.
Orlando is about to learn what republicans mean by “supporting the troops.”
