Give 'Em Hell Harry | Outrageous Lies


The Rethugs have proven themselves capable of lying about everything. Do they count on the people who elect them to be this stupid?

If so, that is a sad commentary on the state of education and/or the media in this country

Give 'Em Hell Harry Outrageous Lies:

"Immigration is one of our most pressing national security issues and the fact is George Bush and his rubberstamping Republican allies in Congress have failed to deal with it responsibly. Instead, they turn reality upside down and today will start running ads against me on Spanish language radio stations in Nevada claiming 'Reid's Democrat allies voted to treat millions of hardworking immigrants as felons.'

That is a lie. Democrats fought Bill Frist and House Republican efforts to bow to the extreme rightwing element of their party and treat twelve million hardworking immigrants like felons. In one week Democrats voted twice to support a bill that reinforces border security and brings millions of undocumented workers out of the shadows.

I will fight back against this vicious smear in Nevada, but it will only stop if we show Republicans there is a price to pay for their lies. I'm not going to ask you to contribute to me, but to Democrats running for Senate around the country. We have a real shot at taking back the majority in November and that would be the best revenge."
