At least that’s what I think he’s saying.
Via Twitchy:
. . . We’re curious to know why Rep. Pallone thinks Alejandro Bedoya and Omar Gonzales are “immigrants.” Both have Hispanic-sounding names, but they were born on U.S. soil. We certainly hope Rep. Pallone isn’t engaging in racial/ethnic profiling.
Just out of curiosity we decided to take a looksy at the birth places and biographical backgrounds of all 11 of Pallone’s “immigrants”:
* Tim Howard was born in New Jersey.
* Bedoya, Jozy Altidore, and Julian Green were born in Florida.
* Jermaine Jones was born in Chicago.
* Gonzales was born in Dallas.
* Aron Jóhannsson was born in Alabama.
* Fabian Johnson, Timothy Chandler, Mix Diskerud and John Brooks were born in Europe. All had at least one American parent (see here, here, here, and here).
