Rep. Pelosi Says Wal-Mart Arrests 'Terrorizing'
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said on Friday police raids on dozens of U.S. Wal-Mart stores in the search for illegal immigrants this week amounted to "terrorizing" workers.You think that Nancy couldn recognize terrorism if someone dropped a jumbo jet on her? Neither do I.
But she's got the talking points down pat.
"It instills a great deal of fear in people who are only trying to earn a living and put food on the table for their family," Pelosi, a California Democrat, told reporters on a Congressional visit to Mexico.Nancy, whether illegal aliens are good people or bad is immaterial, the relevant criterion is that they are illegal.
She was speaking after meeting Mexican President Vicente Fox for talks on immigration and border security.Sounds like she brought her kneepads.
Pelosi said the Wal-Mart raids showed the need to legalize undocumented workers in parts of the economy other than just the agricultural sector.
