The Dems Compare Illegal Immigrants to Terrorists?

This is what this political ad actually says.

The ad opens with the words "Security Under Bush and GOP?" It features
scenes of a masked man with a bazooka, scenes from terrorist attacks and police
inspecting a subway train. It also shows Osama bin Laden and Iran's President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and a docked ship as it claims "4 times as many terrorist
attacks in 2005."


Then comes footage of a person climbing over
a corrugated metal border fence and another preparing to climb it as the words
"millions more illegal immigrants" form on-screen. In the following scene,
viewers see the words "North Korea has quadrupled its nuclear arsenal" with
footage of a tank and North Korea President Kim Jong Il.


Yup, the so called "Progressive Party" just lumped illegal immigrants between Iran and Kim Jong Il. This is the kind of craziness that should come out of the anti-immigrant far-right and not the Dems. Could it be some subliminal moral equivalency going on? Is the "progressive" equation Terrorist=Illegal Immigrant=North Korean Nukes?

It is always amazing to me that no one seems to remember that Congress makes the laws, not the Executive branch of our republic. Citing terrorist attacks as a basis for evaluation, when Bush is trying all manner of new tactics-some possibly without legal basis in reality--is amazing when it is Congress who gave him the power in the first place. Immigration is an issue HE RAISED first and wants it solved...amazing.
