Dobbs: Don't let our leaders divide us - CNN.com

Lou Dobbs says we should not let our leaders divide us. Good idea, but:

President George W. Bush, seeking support for his so-called "comprehensive immigration reform" proposal, declared that "America should not fear diversity." Those are neither the words of a leader, nor a uniter.

Never mind whose words those are, Lou -- only those who fear diversity think it's the same thing as division. Sadly, it's self-fulfilling: fear of heterogeneity leads to segregation, segregation facilitates division. If we had no fear we'd all be better off.
