O’REILLY: But do you understand what the New York Times wants, and the far-left want? They want to break down the white, Christian, male power structure, which you’re a part, and so am I, and they want to bring in millions of foreign nationals to basically break down the structure that we have. In that regard, Pat Buchanan is right. So I say you’ve got to cap with a number.
MCCAIN: In America today we’ve got a very strong economy and low unemployment, so we need addition farm workers, including by the way agriculture, but there may come a time where we have an economic downturn, and we don’t need so many.
O’REILLY: But in this bill, you guys have got to cap it. Because estimation is 12 million, there may be 20 [million]. You don’t know, I don’t know. We’ve got to cap it.
MCCAIN: We do, we do. I agree with you.
Think Progress » Preserving the ‘white, Christian, male power structure.’:
Why exactly do we need to preserve the white christian male power structure? For a tv pundit on Fox news where “We report! You Decide!†it seems clear that O’Reilly’s take on the immigration bill is clearly not balanced. On the other hand, at least O’Reilly is honest in his lust for, and maintenance of power. What is disturbing, however, is that no one suggesting that the white-male-christian power structures *need* to be dismantled.
Sigh.

McCain agreed with him pretty quick there. I wonder what his female constituents think of that.
