Right-wing nuts have reached a new low with a new campaign aimed at immigrants that primarily targets the Hispanic community in a most offensive way.

As debate continues over the controversial Arizona law, scheduled to take effect July 29, a new campaign has popped up across the Internet and through T-shirts, mugs, bumper stickers and other promotional items that many right-wingers are only too happy to tout.

"Deport Pedro" is the name of the new campaign and it even has its own website now.

The site sells T-shirts that promote the insane message, while insisting that Arizona "is right" to require its police, while enforcing other laws, to question a person's immigration status if they suspect that the person is in the country illegally.

In fact, the site's owners, who by the way refuse to list their names or company information, say that with the purchase of the promotional T-shirt, buyers will also receive a copy of Arizona Immigration Bill SB 1070.

On YouTube, several videos with the same slogan, including one titled, "Deport Pedro – Invaders," are popping up. The campaign comes as reports indicate that nearly 440 people in 46 states and the District of Columbia have contributed to a private defense fund to help the state of Arizona mount a legal defense against lawsuits related to its harsh, new immigration law.

Such outright disdain tells us alarmingly that hate in some segments of America towards immigrants continues to grow and the Arizona law has added fuel to this fire – a fuel that can only lead to more hate.

Immigrants and immigrant advocates need to increase their pressure on the Obama administration and Congress to move quickly towards immigration reform that can benefit immigrants in desperate need.

Whether we migrated here from the Caribbean, Latin, South or Central America or Africa, we are all now seemingly viewed as "Pedros" in the eyes of the right-wingers pumping their vials of hate into their followers.

The reality is that if every undocumented person were to be deported, the entire U.S. economy would grind to a halt, as immigrants, legal or not, make up the backbone of essential services in this nation.

Every sector of the economy is dependent on immigrant labor. It is time that these immigrants are given the respect they deserve by allowing them to live and work legally in the United States and travel abroad without fear of reprisals by USICE agents and now hatemongers on the right.

The solution to this lies in a simple law that can arm the undocumented with a card that allows them the simplest of privileges: to work and to travel. Why are the Obama administration and Congress so hardnosed in realizing that unless something is done urgently to solve this issue, the repercussions of Arizona's rules and those of its followers can be dire?

Let's send a clear message to Congress and the president that we will not sit idly by while they continue to play political football with immigration reform as the right continues to

scapegoat and play racial politics with immigrants, whether it's Pedro, Jean, Amir or Abayomi.
