HYPOCRISY ALLEGATIONS: 'PROBLEMAS' FOR DAN PATRICK (Texas Lt Gov Race)

Less than 24-hours after Texas State Senator Dan Patrick released a video asserting his opposition to illegal immigration, the candidate for Texas Lt. Governor stands accused of having hired four illegal aliens in a bar he previously owned. Earlier today Sen. Patrick told the Weatherford Democrat he is proud to wear the title of toughest guy on immigration running for any state office. On Patrick’s campaign website he describes himself as “Dan Patrick Border Champion”.

Now Dan Patrick stands accused by his formerly illegal alien, now U.S. Citizen, former employee of not only hiring him and three other illegal immigrants, but hiring them with false documents and even allegedly offering to sneak one of them back from the Texas/Mexico border, past inland security checkpoints.

In a Dallas Morning News report, “Miguel “Mike” Andrade, 48, of Missouri City, told The Dallas Morning News and Houston’s KTRK-TV that he, his cousin and two other men from Mexico worked at one of Patrick’s five sports bars that operated in the Houston area until 1986.”

At that time, there were no penalties involved in hiring someone in this residing in the U.S. illegally according to the report.

Thanks for reading the article. I guess Rove is too busy trying to keep Cornyn from being primaried.

Patrick is the candidate who has lied about the other candidates on illegal immigration.

What's the lie he told and about whom?

So, another Politifact political hyperbole = lie post.

Amazing how these accusations always come around the time of the actual vote, like they did when Bush was running for President back in 2000.

Dan Patrick very vocally supported RINO David Dewhurst and with a nasty tone, tried to bully Ted Cruz in a contentious radio interview just 2 years ago. (I haven't forgiven him for this.) Now he's embracing the Tea Party in a bro hug. I listened to his show occasionally found some of his views illogical. Not as bad as Debra Medina, but still... I don't plan on voting for him as there are better candidates. This race (Lt. Gov.) and the senate race (Cornyn’s seat) are encouraging for the number of quality candidates running against the incumbent.
