wonkette rips the "latino moochers" meme

Wonkette's on a roll! Some sample snarky/witty comments from the wonkerati:
"Yes, how dare they be...COMPETENT at their objectives of WINNING?!?!?!? Also, how dare they tell the truth about a man who had no discernible empathy or compassion except towards those made of money just like him. That's entirely un-American. Except when white guys do it. In that case, it's Freedom and Liberty and the such as."

"How long until someone on Fox floats the idea of reinstating the 3/5 rule?"

"My Honduran 'exchange student,' who works harder than any white handyman I have ever hired, begs to differ. Or at least he might, if he could get online and speak English."

"That will happen when tiny pigs wear red boots!"

can take the boy

You can take the boy out of Oak Ridge, but you can't take the Oak Ridge out of the boy.

different worlds all tossed together

There is no "Florida." Starting at the bottom, you've got your gay Mecca - Key West. Then all those boat bums, idle fisherman, ex-weed haulers, treasure divers, et. al., up the Keys to Miami.

Miami to about Palm Beach or Launderdale is the Florida most people think of. But there's Havana - it's not "Little Havana" any more. It's just Havana. Calle Ocho. Etc.

The middle of the state is a damn big swamp, with DisneyWorld on the West side. Miles and miles of retirement communities in various states of collapse.

You got the Panhandle - Cracker Country for sure. The big ass airbase. And we didn't cover Tampa and St. Pete yet, either, because the Gulf Coast is always the last thing folks talk about when they talk Florida.

It's many, many different worlds all tossed together. But there is no "Florida."

One of the best (and funniest!) descriptions I've ever heard of the State of Florida.
