While campaigning in Wisconsin earlier this month, Mitt Romney is quoted as saying “We are going to have to make sure as we talk to Hispanic voters that we say ‘We are not anti-immigrant. We are pro-immigrant. We are the party that loves people coming into this country as immigrants’”.
what eye thynk: Mitt, Mitt, Mitt. Let me explain something to you. Simply saying something, does not make it so. I’m a 5’8” natural blonde. I can tell people I’m a petite brunette, but just one look and they will know I'm lying.
Same thing with your new “I love immigrants” posturing. There are video tapes all over the place of you saying things like, “as President, I would veto the Dream Act” and that you think the Arizona show-me-your-papers law is a “model for America”. You can’t have it both ways. Mitt.
Really, do you think that stating you favor “self-deportation”, (as you did in January at the Tampa Republican Primary Debate), is going to make immigrants feel all warm and fuzzy when your name comes up?
Choose a side and stick with it. We don’t have to agree with you, but we do expect you to tell the truth…and we have proof when you don’t.
"Truth" seems to be Mister Romney's 'elusive butterfly'.
ReplyDeleteThis does make the Republican party look like the party of the anti-truth, but i always give everyone the benefit of the doubt.
ReplyDeletePerhaps they just have different definitions and alternate meanings for common words!
That would explain why Bush's "Clear Sky" initiative allowed more pollutants to be released into our air, and the "Healthy Forest Initiative" allowed timber companies more freedom to go into our public lands and clearcut.
Perhaps what Mittens really meant was "We love immigrants -- boiled or fried." ???????????????
