Footnote on Joerg Haider - The Austrian Buchanan

I am glancing at an AP photo of demonstrators in Vienna, Austria:

    " No Coalition with Racism ! "  says a sign. I wonder if it is just

    brainless panic- exploited by the very economic forces that recently

    assembled in Seattle -that makes this crowd see Joerg Haider, the

    Austrian Pat Buchanan, as another Hitler.

         Will  ANY politician ANYWHERE who speaks out against unrestricted,

    promiscuous immigration get the same treatment:condemned by a big

    business establishment that could care less about ordinary working

    people in their own country or any other country ?

          No problem with Communist China  ? If the workers rebel over

    there, they can just shoot them !

            I heard this objection voiced by an opponent of Haider on

    National Public Radio this morning : Who will do our menial work

     if they crack down on immigration ?

          The beauty of an honest comment ! Yes, who will do the

    dirty work for lovers of Democracy and Free Trade ?
