Pro-Illegal Group Calls For Ads' Removal

Cross-posted at Texas Hold 'Em Blogger.

Proof that the ads from Mark Green and J.B. Van Hollen targeting Gov. Jim Milhous Doyle and the Democrats on illegal immigration are resonating with voters: a group advocating illegal aliens has labeled them racist and demanded the Green and Van Hollen campaigns pull the ads.

Officials of the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) said U.S. Rep. Mark Green, who is running for governor, and attorney general candidate J. B. Van Hollen are airing commercials regarding immigration that are misleading and designed for short-term political gain.

LULAC is a non-partisan, non-profit organization that doesn’t endorse candidates.

Spokesmen for Green and Van Hollen said they had not heard from LULAC, but both campaigns noted they have no intention of taking down their ads.

Yippee. Another non-profit involved in — surprise — liberal political activism.

And they claim to be nonpartisan while all the time attacking only Republicans.

No doubt they support Diamond Jim’s plans for taxpayer-provided home loans, in-state tuition rates and welfare benefits for illegal aliens.
