I wouldn't expect recent immigrants to contribute to the republican party after Rove's drive to make them responsible for all of America's woes. In the restaurants I worked in it was often the dishwasher who was the hardest worker in the whole dang place. Let's be sure to belittle them because they aren't fat cats.
