Republican Group Chides Democrats With Abortion Ads
Aim Is To Win Minority Voters, But Democrats Cry Foul

A little-known Republican group that claims to have swayed the 2004 presidential election with provocative radio advertising aimed at black and Hispanic audiences is spending nearly $1 million this year to boost the GOP's chances of holding on to a majority in Congress.

The group, America's Pac, began running ads last month in more than two dozen congressional districts.The campaign discusses issues ranging from warrantless wiretapping to school choice, but the most inflammatory spots pertain to abortion.

"Black babies are terminated at triple the rate of white babies," a female announcer in one of the ads says, as rain, thunder, and a crying infant are heard in the background. "The Democratic Party supports these abortion laws that are decimating our people, but the individual's right to life is protected in the Republican platform. Democrats say they want our vote.Why don't they want our lives?"

Another ad features a dialogue between two men.

"If you make a little mistake with one of your ‘hos,' you'll want to dispose of that problem tout suite, no questions asked," one of the men says.

"That's too cold. I don't snuff my own seed," the other replies.

"Maybe you do have a reason to vote Republican," the first man says.

Another spot attempts to link Democrats to a white supremacist who served as a Republican in the Louisiana Legislature, David Duke.The ad makes reference to Duke's trip to Syria last year, where he spoke at an anti-war rally.

"I can understand why a Ku Klux Klan cracker like David Duke makes nice with the terrorists,"a male voice in the ad says. "What I want to know is why so many of the Democrat politicians I helped elect are on the same side of the Iraq war as David Duke."

What hypocrisy on the part of the Republicans! Their own Republican white supremacist is being linked to Democrats!

Say, where is that self-aggrandizing GOP guy who said he was going to be correcting our logic on this list? Perhaps he can defend the low Republican tactics here.

GOPRazorback probably ran back home to Ash & Co. Funny how the first ad makes it seem like people are grabbing pregnant black women off the streets and aborting their fetuses. A better question might be asked, "Why do 3 times as many black women feel the need to abort?" - might, maybe have something to do with poverty, perhaps? Possibly a choice of "feed 2, starve 3" or something like that? Something to do with Republican policies that create a soaring Dow that puts millions of more dollars in the pockets of billionaires while regular folks HAVE to shop at Wal-Mart because they can't afford anything else - when they can afford that.

I'm surprised that the Republican Party doesn't come up when you google "hypocrisy" (like Bush comes up when you google failure).

Apparently that can be arranged.
