Imagine that
Right wing blogger Dad29 has a scoop.
He has discovered, through some ground-breaking investigative work, that hundreds of thousands of people didn't just spontaneously take to the streets to protest draconian changes in immigration law championed by Rep. F. Jim Sensenbrenner and others.
Those demonstrations were organized!
Latinos, Dad has discovered, even have radio and TV stations and newspapers, all of which helped to promote the rallies and marches.
Even Milwaukee has a Latino station, and it promoted the march that attracted 10,000 people here. (Kind of like Republican radio promotes anti-tax and pro-war rallies for days on end, and even sends its announcers to act as emcees as well as shills.)
What next?
If it hadn't been for Dad's expose, we all would have gone on thinking that it was just coincidence that 10,000-plus Milwaukeeans came out of their houses at the same time, with flags and signs.
Boy, were we gullible.

Dad failed to mention that "Spanish-speaking America" use a secret code to organize the deceptively spontaneous protests.
Luckily for us some have learned to decipher their secret code.
hola = hello
adiós = good bye

"The marching orders were clear: Carry American flags and pack the kids, pick up your trash and wear white for peace and for effect."
Only the Mexican flags were spontaneous, it appears.
Nice catch Dad29. Obviously, only Anglos are able to organize rallies or participate in a democracy!
[sarcasm turned up to 11]
Ironically, in the case Sven cites a counter-argument would have been "It's not like they're waving the Vatican flag."
We'll bridge that cross when we get to it.
