WASHINGTON — A conservative group wants its members to be alert — Sonia Sotomayor’s confirmation to the Supreme Court could lead to very dangerous things.

“We just received word that the [National Council of] La Raza supporters are jubilant and arranging immediate celebrations and festivities for their wins,” Americans for Legal Immigration PAC, a vehemently nativist group that’s been active fighting attempts to reform the immigration system in recent years, said in an e-mail Thursday afternoon. “Those of you in areas of dense illegal immigration might have a rowdy night on your hands.”

Sotomayor, of course, was born in the Bronx, and besides, Puerto Ricans are U.S. citizens — so strictly speaking, she has nothing to do with immigration at all. But why should that get in the way of a good scare? “What do you think Obama and the Globalists plan to do to Americans next?” the e-mail asks. (Americans such as… Sotomayor, presumably.)

“Resistance to Sotomayor’s nomination was considered light by Senate staffers due to their ability to convince most Americans that resistance was futile,” the e-mail continues. “We expect this same PSYOPS technique to be used in the push for Amnesty next. Many thanks to all of you that called, e-mailed, faxed, and fought bravely. If more of our fellow Americans had joined us we could have prevailed.”
