Like I have been writing in my blog Cyber ink the backlash from the immigration debate is in full swing. Advocates of illegals feel assaulted by this Republican Administration. I feel those advocates made serious tactical errors in the way their campaign supporting illegals was conducted. After expressing those tactical errors some advocates have accused me of being racist. Those are exactly some of the errors they keep making.

The feeling began to snowball in June with the defeat of a comprehensive immigration bill, and it could perhaps solidify under a fresh crackdown on illegal workers by the Bush administration.

Simply put, immigrant advocates say, many Latinos believe the Republican Party no longer welcomes them.

Those advocates interpret last week’s development -– new rules increasing the penalties on companies that employ illegal workers -– as the latest assault on a community once wooed by the highest ranks of the GOP leadership.
