Roskam and the NRCC's RACIST ads

So apparently the Roskam camp and the NRCC have decided that the best way to win over the voters of the 6th district is by using overtly racist imagery. Check out the following two ads that highlight the bad guys as the brown guys (and woman - Tammy) and the victims as the white, nuclear family.

One thing is for certain: we can always count on the GOP to appeal to the absolute worst in humanity.

The NRCC ad:


The REALLY bad one from Roskam's campaign:

In addition to wondering where the hell they get off spewing such obviously RACIST bullshit, I would like to know who in the HELL that ridiculously breathy-voiced woman is in the voice over.

No. Do not even go there. I am not at all a fan of Peter Roskam's, but I believe this type of talk crosses the line. I think it's disgusting to be happy about someone's death or wish that someone was dead, least of all because of political ideology.

Just don't. Not around here.

This probably calls for it's own post.
