Eva Longoria, Presidential Advisor?

So, Eva Longoria was brainstorming with the President last week… (wait, what?)
Please tell me this is just a ‘sweeps stunt’ for a very special episode of ABC‘s ’Desperate Housewives.’ (Desperate White House Wives?)
Nope. Ms. Longoria met with the President last week, not just once, but twice. She was part of a small group of Latino celebs brainstorming with the President “to reframe the immigration argument.’
Watch the short clip as she reveals a key part of the Democratic Party’s plan to take back the House in 2012.
Based on that brief statement, it is apparent that Democrats are enlisting Latino celebrities to revive the Dream Act. And any incumbent who does not support Immigration Reform, ‘will pay.’

Posted on May 11, 2011 at 10:29amEva… we dont care about ‘Latino’ concerns. We care about American concerns. We are all Americans. People like you are dividing people into groups. You are encouraging special treatment for ‘special’ or ‘oppressed’ people. Its not about what’s good for you or for one group… its about what’s good for America! Stupid celebrities, opening their stupid mouths… trying to rally the masses of useful idiots. Eva I used to be a fan. Not anymore. Man celebrities are making it easier and easier for me to stop watching their shows and movies because its all propaganda for the messiah, Obama.

Posted on May 11, 2011 at 3:57amFolks – you forget. The Latino’s think that the US is rightfully theirs and we took it. Us damn whites. We need to go – give them the keys and walk away. This is reverse racism – been building for so many years and everytime a whtie says so, they are ‘racist’ and everyone (black, latino) agrees and points fingers. I never got anything from the Government, I’ve paid my whole life, I‘ve a wife that came here the RIGHT way and these sob’s just want to take it all away because “we owe it to them”.
Get lost – get out. Your show sucks and you are a waste of space. Sorry to hear good old Obama actually pushing your agenda too….

Posted on May 8, 2011 at 6:14pmThis is not a complicated issue. The citizens of the United States created laws. The laws need to be followed by everyone here. If you are here illegally, you need to return to your own country. Latino’s are no better than other folks. People from all over the world want to live in the greatest country in the world. Others legally enter and are welcome. I’m a faithful fan of Desparate Housewives and record the series on my DVR. However, I have now deleted the series. Eva Longoria wants those who vote against the Dream Act to suffer consequences. I know that my lonely gesture of deleting her television show won’t do much. If enough folks are turned off by her comments and decide to stop watching her program as well, then she would understand some consequences of her own.

Posted on May 8, 2011 at 8:21amApparently if you share a heritage and you are a celebrity, then suddenly you become an expert on immigration reform. I knew I should have taken that role on “The Paul Reiser Show”. I could have really pushed forward an agenda to help the Irish coming to this country. Ever since the potato famine in 1845, the Irish have been waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Posted on May 7, 2011 at 3:16pmIt is a sad time in our country’s history when every race or ethnic group demands special treatment and special treatment is being given. Our country used to pride itself on being a melting pot and we all thought of ourselves as Americans (without hyphens). The people wanting to tear our country apart have convinced various ethnic communities they deserve a special identity and special considerations. Too bad these people are so easily led because they are ruining the best country there ever was. I want to be around to laugh at them when the country is no more and they live under the same conditions their ancestors fled to enjoy the good life America provides. They will be the ones crying the loudest.

Yes, this is what we need. A desperate housewife running this country.
Eva was raised in Texas on a huge ranch. And now she is an expert on immigration from Mexico.
Now she wants to encourage people to break our laws. I have a Mexican great grandmother. She came here legally. And she would not encourage anyone from any country to come here illegally.

Posted on May 7, 2011 at 1:57amLittle Miss Latino, Eva Longoria doesn’t seem to realize everyone WANTS Immigration Reform. Her reform is just different from what most American’s see as reform. While 70 plus percent of Americans want the borders secured before anything is done toward reform….we know what Miss Longoria and her La Raza compatriots want…open borders and amnesty for everyone…I just can ‘t believe that my president is so DESPERATE for ideas that he turns to an empty headed “Desperate Housewife” cast member, along with other entertainers for answers.

Posted on May 8, 2011 at 11:29amWestBYGOSH, I agree with you 100%. This is a bandwagon that the celeb.’s get more exposure on and they just want to jump on it. They aren’t doing it for the people or a national cause, they are doing it for themselves and to boost their career. As another West“byGod” Virginian, I guess we kinda think alike.

Posted on May 7, 2011 at 6:09amI have a visceral reaction to these millionaire celebs being involved in pushing policy. She gets to short circuit the rest of us by virtue of TV fame. I can’t be involved in that. I have developed an allergy to these people and cannot bring myself to watch any of their products. As a matter of fact, celebrity involvement just antagonizes me into an opposing position on whatever issue they are pushing. You want to be in Big politics? Do the honorable thing and run for office like Schwartzy.

Posted on May 7, 2011 at 6:38amShe chose her words carefully, yet her speech was divisive–”…latinos this,…latinos that….“ She is not having an immigration ”conversation” with anyone. Did she mention “American” or “citizen?” No, just latino, latino, latino. She specifically threatened reprisals from the latino vote for those who don’t help pass the “Dream Act.”
Quite the conversationalist. Who are the other members of this elite 10 who are “influential in the media?”

Posted on May 8, 2011 at 4:22pmThis isn’t a complicated issue. The citizens of the United States have laws. Everyone living here should follow them. They are there for a reason. If you came to our country illegally, you must return to your country. Someone with a Latino background is no better than folks who may be Irish, English, African etc… They’re many who want to come live in this great country and call it their own and should have that opportunity and are welcome if your arrival is expected. I’m very disappointed in Eva Longoria. I am a faithful fan of Desperate Housewives and record it on my DVR but, I cancelled the series. As Eva says of those who don’t go along with their agenda will suffer the consequences, I’m afraid she will in turn lose viewers and suffer her own consequences.
