While speaking to a group of Latino students on the virtues of America as a melting pot, Republican Nevada Senate candidate Sharron Angle said that some of the students looked Asian to her.

As Jon Ralston reports:

"So that's what we want is a secure and sovereign nation and, you know, I don't know that all of you are Latino. Some of you look a little more Asian to me. I don't know that. What we know, what we know about ourselves is that we are a melting pot in this country. My grandchildren are evidence of that. I'm evidence of that. I've been called the first Asian legislator in our Nevada State Assembly."

That last comment, about her being called the first Asian legislator? I have no idea what she is talking about.

Snip

This occurred at the same event where Angle said that the Latinos labeled as "illegal aliens" in her ads might not be Latinos at all, but terrorists sneaking in from the Canadian border.

3. Sharon Angle and David Vitter have been criticized for their use of stock photos ...

of "scary" immigrants in their anti-immigrant ads that have been proven to be Mexicans in Mexico. See link for photo. This is the ad that she now claims could have been about terrorists crossing the Canadian border. http://americasvoiceonline.org/blog/entry/sharron_angle_immigration_ads_prey_on_fear_crass_stereotypes/

The worst part is that some people believe that garbage. You have to be a piss poor politician to be tied with that insanity.

You just have to scroll past the pic of the (R) in the Nazi uniform, and the family-values (R) posing with the underage, lingerie-clad young woman. :)

My favourite thing about the Angle photo is that there are palm trees in the background. Palm trees are not exactly a common sight here in the Great White North.
