Hey Wetback. Don't Vote!

Hey Wetback. Don't Vote!

That's what the republican party is using as their latest tool in attempting to keep the Minority vote out of the elections. Nothing they want more than to suppress the vote of them there Mexicans. Of course they're not outing themselves on the matter and a group that is calling itself Latinos For Reform is the puppet being used for the ads that are being aired in Nevada. If you saw this ad run you'd probably think it was a parody or something as it clearly can't be real..



You'd be wrong as it is entirely real.. not only that but it's currently being aired. But Latinos for Reform feel it's TV worthy.



Maybe the reason Democrats never got a chance to tackle immigration reform was because Republicans spent the entire time blocking any legislation from getting through. Often with threats of a filibusterer. That's right. Not actual filibusters, but just the simple threat of doing one was enough to hold everything up.

They would also make sure anything proposed was so diluted that it made the Republicans happy so we never got anything closely resembling change. It was pretty clear that the democrats could only do anything once they were literally 100% of the senate and house just so they didn't have the mean old republicans around as an excuse as to why they couldn't get things done.

with that said, the sad thing is that the ad is completely correct and I agree with them. Besides, Latinos already don't vote. The whole ad campaign and the creating of this fake non-profit Latinos for Reform was a complete waste of Republican time and money.

It's like they just don't give a shit anymore in trying to hide the message. The American political system is so beyond fucked that they should just start running campaigns based around throwing rocks and bricks through each other windows.

But we do know who is really behind it. Anything that suggest people not vote democratic in large groups like this is most def. funded by republicans. Ralph Nader comes to mind in 2004's campaign due to the backing of republican signatures just to separate the democratic vote.

Latinos are probably America's last hope for reform. In the sense of holistic medicine is the last hope for a cancer patient. It's pretty clear that the democrats will be slaughtered next month. Blood will run in the streets and the republicans will jump up and down and cheer thinking it's a huge win and people want change instead of what it actually is.. that people simply want to blame the people in office right now for decades of poor choices.

Basically, the democrats are fucked. We're all fucked and nothing is going to stop this bleeding and in another 2 years we'll want to "Throw out the bums and put in new bums" just because nothing is going to change. But hey, if you're Mexican - Please vote and not for something that is anti-gay.

Thanks in advance.
