Democrats, please take on Republicans on immigration... Demand drivers licenses for everyone... Please... You know that’s what is in your heart. Be true to yourself... The truth will set you free!
As someone who was around in 1988, paying attention to the election, and saw the commercial, I'd like to tell those of you who have only heard about it, that it never occurred to me that Willie Horton was black when I first watched the ad. He was just a small figure in a revolving door. I needed racist Democrats to tell me WIllie Horton was black.
And Dukakis didn't lose the election because of the Willie Horton commercial. Dukakis lost because many perceived him to be a schmuck and he was not the one most likely to continue the Reagan prosperity.

I guess Teresa has missed the fact that, in recent years, illegals have been responsible for more crime including rapes, murders, robberies, DUI homocides and the like. And, she also appears to have missed the fact that most of these illegals have been handled with kid gloves by the American judicial system which refuses, under orders from Bush, Martinez, Minetta and Chertoff, to treat these criminals as criminals.
It is startling (to say the least) that illegals are responsible for more American domestic deaths than American soldiers that have died in the Iraq War. If the Surrendercrats want to bleat about American deaths, perhaps they should adopt this as their rallying cry.

The US has more than enough homegrown criminals. Why import them?
The “Willie Horton ad” is always the excuse for Dukakis’loss but let us not forget how it came about...from Wikipedia:
“The first person to mention the Massachusetts furlough program in the 1988 presidential campaign was Al Gore. During a debate at the Felt Forum sponsored by the New York Daily News, Gore took issue with the furlough program. He did not, however, mention Horton by name. He asked it in the form of a rhetorical question, asking Dukakis whether or not he would extend Massachusetts-style furloughs to the federal level.”

Eight of the ten largest U.S. cities are “sanctuary cities” and all eight are majority Democrat. This situation likely calls for more courage than the Dems have available.
illegals & extreme leftists, round em All up and deport them all.
And the fact that Horton was black doesn’t make any difference. The fact is, he was a vicious criminal who was idiotically released on furlough, and he escaped and committed another heinous crime. The Dukakis forces knew they had no defense on this issue, so they played the race card. “Horton’s black, so you’re a racist for using this as an issue”.
The Willie Horton ad was a perfectly legitimate ad. Just as concern about illegal immigration is a perfectly legitimate concern.
Uh, no. We don't blame illegal immigrants for everything wrong with this country. We do blame them for violating a basic law that every nation on earth adheres to--the right to determine who gets to enter their country. And we blame the politicians, particularly the democrats (but there is plenty of blame to go around,) for not enforcing that basic law.
NEWARK FIENDS FIRST FAILED AT SEX ATTACK
By AUSTIN FENNER NY POST August 23, 2007
The thugs who shot four Black college students in Newark reportedly preceded their sick attack by trying to sexually assault their two female victims. The group of six assailants - who shot two men and a woman dead and wounded another woman - failed in their attempt at a sexual attack, and then decided to kill their victims. Six suspects have now been charged in the Aug. 4 atrocity, in which the victims were blasted execution-style.
Yesterday, a family member of one of the slain victims described the level of savagery of the attack. He said the thugs used a machete to hack their victims.
"They cut my niece's face off," said John McClain, who is Iofemi Hightower's great-uncle, and the chaplain of the Newark Police Department. "They cut her from cheek to cheek. They left her head hanging." McClain said the mortician had to work for three days to put his grand-niece's face back together. --SNIP--

NOTE: Machetes are the signature weapons of violent MS-13 gangs from South America who are active in 42 states according to a FBI report.
LINE-UP OF EVIL These three are the scum that mutilated three victims w/ machetes then shot them execution-style. Carranza from Peru is also a child rapist (let go scot-free); another scumbag is from Honduras.
Melvin Jovel, Jose Carranza, Rodolfo Godinez (L to R)
===================================
If they only had a brain-----the sap-happy Newark justice system includes politically correct judges, prosecutors......and a Mayor who vocally defended the killers. How these dolts got law degrees is anybody's guess. The rancid odor of affirmative action fouls the air. Newark prosecutors Paula Dow, Margarita Rivera and Judge Thomas Vena are the PC nitwits who freed Carranza (a man with 32 counts of child rape).
======================================
BACKUP: Superior Court Judge Thomas Vena decided to lower Carranza's bail to $150,000 from $300,000. A chronology released by the office of the Assignment Judge said the bail was lowered with the consent of Margarita Rivera, the assistant prosecutor handling Carranza's child sex assault case.
According to news reports, Prosecutor Rivera did a CYA; she lied, and said she had never given consent. But MSNBC aired courtroom footage where Judge Vena asked Carranza for his Social Security number; Carranza responded, "I don't have it." On-camera, Prosecutor Margarita Rivera clarified the statement, saying on-camera Carranza didn't have a Social Security number. CONCLUSION Sycophant Rivera knowingly allowed an illegal latino, and child rapist, to go free.
vaca caca
That’s right, stop calling us racists because we want the rule of law and not of sappy-hearted non-thinking. grrr.
If illegal aliens are such a boom to our economy, why is it that California (which has more illegals than any state) is in such horrendous shape? I read an article recently that the city of Salinas is closing its public libraries, and will become the largest city in America with no public library. The article said that the city’s population had grown but tax revenues were down. You had to read between the lines, but putting two and two together it looks as if the city has to pay for the upkeep of their new “residents”, so they can’t afford things like libraries any more.
Isn’t California in perpetual fiscal crisis now that it’s full of illegals?
I agree. Democratic candidates must be encouraged to do the right thing, drop all other issues and focus on this vital matter. They must insist on drivers licenses for illegals, and more important, immediate amnesty for these poor people. Any Democrat who doesn’t do this is a heartless sell-out, and a bigot. Democrats need to get their priorities straight. You tell ‘em, Teresa.
Salinas has become a Mexican city. It is no longer an American city. Its middle class and their institutions have been overrun and displaced. Welcome to the Third World.
