Title: Menendez says new Angle ad is racist

Nevada Republican Sharron Angle's new TV ad is racist, the head of Senate Democrats' campaign efforts charged.

Sen. Robert Menendez (N.J.), the chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC), lambasted Angle's new ad, "The Wave," which targets Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on illegal immigration.

"I do," said Menendez, a Cuban-American, when asked if he thought Angle's new ad was racist.

The new TV spot talks about an influx of illegal immigrants into Nevada, depicting Latinos, who are presumed to be illegal immigrants in the ad, as dangerous. Angle's campaign hits Reid for supporting benefits for immigrants here illegally, and for voting against making English the national language of the U.S. 

"It's clear whose side he's on," the ad says of Reid. "Not ours."

Menendez condemned the ad in harsh terms, reflecting the already close nature of the race between Reid and Angle in the state.

"I think it's despicable. I think it tries to portray all Latinos in this country in a negative light, in a state that has such a large, vibrant, productive Latino population," Menendez said. "And it goes hand in hand with what Sharron Angle is doing in trying to suppress that vote in Nevada."

Angle is supposedly concerned about Mexican thugs - with plenty of pictures of thug-looking Hispanics (or Hispanic-looking thugs). And therefore she bitches about Harry Reid allowing Mexicans to get Social Security accounts and admission to college.

Does Angle think it's the thugs who will be paying into Social Security? Does she think it's the thugs who will be going to college? Or does she simply think that all Mexicans are thugs?

It would seem that Reid has made an effective effort to work things out so that productive and well-behaved Mexicans can stay here, while the thugs are deported.

Either they are here legally or they are not.

If they are not here legally, unless there is an extenuating circumstance such legitimate fear of political persecution, then they should be deported. Period.

This is not the United States of Gravy Train. While I feel sorry about the corruption which keeps people down in their home countries with unemployment (real unemployment not the cooked Federal numbers) running in the range of 25%+ (Depression levels) we do not have the luxury of providing for those here illegally. Pack them up and send them HOME. If they wish to apply to return legally they are welcome to apply - along with everyone else who follows the law.

Yes, the bleeding hearts seem to think--if what they do can be called "thinking"--that the US can absorb the entire population of the world, or whatever part of it can just get to the country. They are about as deluded as their hero, the Kenyan, or that idiot Harry Reid. Not five brain cells between them. Tico and Teco (their two brain cells) took the year off and didn't come back.

The "bleeding hearts" don't think - they "emote".

I do care about other people, but I care first about the people of THIS country. Helping others is good - and the United States, or at least its people, have a tradition of helping others, but to be able to help others you first have to be in a position to do it. With a flood of impoverished and poorly educated immigrants who consume more than they produce, which is an unequal exchange, and are here illegally to begin with. Well, I have sympathy for their plight, but not to the point of committing suicide for them.

I agree with that 100%. The illegals need to get in line and in the back of the line behind people who have been waiting, some for years, to get in the country legally. And though we all know it isn't going to happen they should be told and in a way that it could not be misunderstood, that if they are caught in America again without coming in legally there will be consequences and repercussions, one of which would be that they will NEVER be allowed back into the country. You wouldn't have to show many of them that you meant business and the rest of them would take the hint.
