video in there ^

"They want us to forget the insults we've put up with, the intolerance," the television ad's announcer says in Spanish as a picture of Rush Limbaugh appears onscreen with quotes of him saying, "Mexicans are stupid and unqualified" and "Shut your mouth or get out." "They made us feel marginalized in a country we love so much," the ad continues. "John McCain and his Republican friends have two faces. One that says lies just to get our vote and another, even worse, that continues the failed policies of George Bush that put special interests ahead of working families."

1. I've heard that Rush Limbaugh is a drug-addicted pedophile.

13. I've heard some people say that too.

I wish Rush would clarify if he is a drug addict and pedophile or not.

5. So they say.

7. lol me too! I didn't understand a word, but I still got chills!

:woohoo:

15. I did understand every word

Even Obama (it was his voice at the beginning) had a tolerable accent when he was saying he approved the ad.

Latin American Spanish TV (what I have seen of it Stateside) does tend to be dramatic,
even the ads, but this guy was definitely hired for his gravitas.

16. Ay!

:o

17. "In a world where Republicans control the labor unions..." n/t

6. A few weeks ago, somebody posted a thread "black will win us this election."

I think that was the wrong ethnic demographic.

9. The Republicans have seriously underestimated the power of the Latinos.

They will regret it.

[spanone]

8. you should read the comments.....scary shit

[Danger Mouse]

10. more bigotry from Rush wankers?

[SoonerPride]

11. Makes me want to start shooting

and ask questions later.

[Danger Mouse]

12. I posted a response to the Rush-loving dirtbags...

I see that Rush's brainless little puppets are out to defend their best buddy. Note to conservative dingbats: it's spelled Barack. Learn to spell his name before you spew hate about him. McCain expects Latinos to vote for him? That's rich! It's not going to happen.
