Then why were they able to do it on the bus? I don't know what would have happened if you didn't have ID as everybody always did.

Perhaps the INS operates under different rules. I know that local police forces are not permitted to do because of a case in a Phoenix suburb (Chandler) where the police department started making inquiries into the legal status of people gathering at day laborer hangouts. Quite the uproar, and the government of Chandler had to pay out some hefty damages in a lawsuit.

What on that flyer indicates illegal votes? Legal immigrants from Mexico (who form a VERY large and VERY legal voting contingent) play a huge role in this issue. Seems like a logical demographic to woo.

If the point of posting that photo was to say that Democrats will benefit from a turnout of people who support less severe handling of illegal immigrants...well, duh. That's hardly news and I don't need to see a photgraph in the internet to convince me of that. If the point was that "the democrats" support illegal voting practices, then yes, I'd have to see some official party support to believe that, 'cause without that all you have is someone with a few buck and access to a print shop who can, by vague inference, be seen to be encouraging illegal voting. Not exactly the same things as "the democracts".

Or, to paraphrase my own post from another thread...It's on a message board?! It must be true!

I could make that flyer in about 15 minutes, change the word "democrat" to "republican" and post it here. Would the picture I posted be accepted by you as an official endorsment of your party?

LOL- unless I actively denouced it, I can be fairly certain of being painted with that brush. Yes.....

Though someone else had this observation-

and of course I am looking for more info- but frankly people here will choose what to believe. That's not my job.

Yet another link with good info

The partisan defense is also a waste- they ALL screwed up. But to deny the vote pandering by EITHER party is dishonest.

Ah, but the question wasn't "would others accept it and attribute it to your beliefs?", but rather "would you accept it?". My point was simply to suggest that the picture you posted a link to has no way of being authenticated as coming from the democrats and I highly doubt that it did.

And just for the record, I happen to not side with the democrats position on illegal immigration.

Huge protest here in Boston. At 4pm, there were large groups meeting at Boston Common. There was also a long line of protestors parading down the Freedom Trail. Really neat to see all these people coming out and voicing their opinions. I don't know how many people were there. Too many to count.
:)

Yet you arbitrarily decide that the photo is some sort of fake- or nothing more than a ploy. Heaven forbid a democrat made that flyer. It's so much easier for you to think it's a fakery. Funny, from my POV, I find it hard to believe that a Dem would NOT do something just like it.

Oh well- like I said, you'll just decide what to believe. If I find more info, I will provide it. I am actively seeking it out.

The rally here in Phoenix, slated to start at 1:00pm local time, has a crowd of less than half of what was expected. They were planning on 100,000, but the estimates on the radio I've heard are anywhere from 20-40K.

I read that Pittburgh got about 100 (not 100,000 - but an actual 100 people), but that Dallas yesterday got over 500,000.
