Democrats call out the GOP on their lies to Hispanics.

I knew that the DNC had their ads out now, but georgia10 at Kos pulls it all together...translations, etc.

And the DNC weighs in on this.



The DNC is also taking out similar ads in Spanish newspapers, as well as ads in Asian American, Irish, and Polish print media.

"THE 60-SECOND spots, paid for by the Republican National Committee, are to air on Spanish-language radio stations this week in Phoenix and Tucson, Reno and Las Vegas. They attack Senate Democratic leader Harry M. Reid (Nev.) for blocking movement on the immigration bill and House Democrats for, they say, voting to treat immigrants " como criminales ." The English translation: "Reid's Democrat allies voted to treat millions of hardworking immigrants as felons, while President Bush and Republican leaders work for legislation that will protect our borders and honor our immigrants."

Spare us the "honor our immigrants" line. We've criticized Mr. Reid and other Senate Democrats for their role in blocking movement on the immigration bill. But House Republicans -- backed by President Bush -- are to blame for the mean-spirited, enforcement-only bill that they passed last year."

..."Sadly, Mr. Bush, instead of showing leadership, has joined in the finger-pointing, accusing Mr. Reid last week of "single-handedly thwarting the will of the American people" on immigration reform. If Mr. Bush wants to achieve results, rather than score points, this isn't the way. And if Republicans want to "honor our immigrants," they ought to defy those in their caucus who feel -- and vote -- otherwise."

Say it over and over and over again... and never apologize for tellin' it like it is.
