The Christian Right's New Race-Baiting
As I said two days ago, the Christian right is eager to resurrect its roots in the anti-integration struggle by introducing a racial aspect to its culture war....

...Jackson alleges that immigrants from Mexico, like homosexuals, will erode the foundations of "traditional" American culture. And his ominous prediction of Latino mayors getting elected across the US -- oh, the horror! -- sounds a lot like the Christian right's warnings about the "homosexual agenda," a term designed to induce fears of gays infiltrating public institutions from schools to government. White America, beware. And open your pocketbooks.
