Frost says Sessions should denounce immigration ads

[derby378]

Red Alert for North Texas Democrats!

Democratic U.S. Rep. Martin Frost says Republican U.S. Rep. Pete Sessions is hiding "behind the white sheets of white supremacy" for not demanding that an anti-immigration organization end a television advertisement blitz blasting Mr. Frost's legislative record.

Sessions campaign manager Chris Homan said Mr. Sessions has no knowledge of the organization sponsoring the advertisements, the Coalition for the Future American Worker, and no involvement with them...

The advertisements, which are scheduled to run into next week on Dallas' ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC affiliate stations, feature dark images of black and Hispanic people with an off-camera voice stating that Mr. Frost supports legislation that would allow immigrants to crowd schools, drive down worker wages and deplete the job pool.

2. pete sessions is one of the worst publican weasels in congress.

And that's saying something.

I used to live under his reign of terror in East Texas.

He's a lying bitch and it doesn't surprise me he's working through some reactionary front org and claiming no knowledge of it.

3. The KKK took my baby away

It's never shocking when right wing capitalists use racism and nativism to distract folks from the marauding of the invisible hand.

But it's at least a little shocking that, in the 21st century, it still works.

Chalk this up to our slide into mystical, gibbering, frothing mania--our politics and social discourse is as splattered as a Mel Gibson movie.
