Oh, and to the OP or anyone else interested interested in what's really going on here, I highly recommend picking up a copy of this book on moral psychology, or if that's too much checking out any of these other resources about politics and moral psychology first: The video in the top right is as good a place as any.
Learning about terror management theory or one of its analogs (René Girard's scapegoat model or TMT through this book if you are religious) is also highly recommended in learning about why the other side always seems to us to be full of assholes. This award winning documentary is a great introduction, streams for free, and is one of my favorite movies ever.
We all need to demonize the other less and work together more on our common goals more, including being able to listen to what the other side has to say.
The first step IMHO is to learn the psychology of what separates us and why. Unfortunately, as research in cognitive science has demonstrated time and time again:

You would do well to read the book The Republican Brain: The Science of Why They Deny Science - and Reality by Chris Mooney. You may be able to find it at your local library. If not, it is worth the price to purchase it, especially if you have lots of Right Wing folks in your family. I learned so much reading this book and cannot recommend it highly enough!
And thanks for the link at the end of your post! I've been laughing my ass off for the last 15 minutes!
Sonia Nazario, the reporter talked about in that story, wrote a book on illegal immigration called Enrique's Journey, which follows an immigrant as he tries to reach America. It's well worth reading if you're interested on the subject.
Totally relevant.
