The housekeeper I used to have was Latino but born and raised in Los Angeles. She even had non-latinos on her crew. Quite frankly I don't have anything against people coming across the boarder for work if it can be done orderly and legally. In fact I would like a system set up where we can have guest workers and the government of Mexico pays for their insurance, medical/legal, while they are here. But until something like that can be negotiated I would also like to see the Great Wall of the Southern Border built to stop the illegal flow. Not me. I am on the sidelines cheering the illegals on. The more, the merrier, as far as I'm concerned. Spoken like a true NeoCon, shempmeister.

Too bad. From what I saw on the local news, most employers of illegals were all too happy to give them the day off if they were given sufficient notice. However I think most illegals worked.

Overall the coverage was quite positive.A portion of the transcript dealing specifically with thestrike aspect: I watched the same report on NBC followed by their affiliate in Houston for local coverage, Both were very positive for the Illegal cause and both were able to "cherry pick" a business or two where the owners either shut down or a large percentage of workers failed to show up. But only an estimated 1 million illegal workers actually went on strike and demonstrated nation wide. Evidently the other 11 million either worked or just took the day off. It didn't seem to have the effect the organizers hoped for, shutting down cities and striking fear into the hearts of American business owners. It appears to me the businesses they hurt, if any, were mainly business that served the Hispanic community.
