In her latest column, Linda Chavez is bashing immigrants for a change.

Of course, the immigrants in question are Vito Genovese and Tough Tony Anastasio, who are deceased, but it's a start. (She's pointing out that Dubai or no Dubai, the waterfront is controlled by the Mafia.)

Gangsterism, of course, is something that honest Italians, (like Joe Guzzardi's family, for example) hoped to leave behind in the Old Country. But somehow, in the rush of uncontrolled immigration, it came with them. Something to think about, during the present uncontrolled rush, but perhaps Ms. Chavez won't make the connection.[The other problem at the port, by Linda Chavez - Mar 8, 2006]
