Independent Experts: Republicans Distorted Images of Madia

A report on Twin Cities-based KARE-11 news cites two independent sources who say that a new television ad from the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) darkens the skin tone of DFL congressional candidate Ashwin Madia (MN-03), who is of Asian Indian American background.

Also, notice the little "balancing act" at the end of the story, the little weasel (IMHO) newcaster just had to make sure that all was "fair & balanced" with his snide comment "so what you're saying is that politics is dirty", in other words, "no big deal, everybody plays dirty, so this a non-story".

Typical, God forbid a news program should do a story

that simply reports that a Republican candidate is running a dirty campaign; can't do that 'cause then you're the evil Liberal media™.

So Democrats are racists because they complain when a Republican lies or distorts a Democrats' image to make them look like someone a racist wouldn't vote for.

Totally agree that he's a moron. But he's a republican, and he's not racist.

It's unfair to brand all republicans racist. I used to be a republican, and certainly was never a racist. I think that the crowd took over GOP just knows how to use racism to win elections, which is just as bad.

I can't believe 40+% of Americans support these Douchebaggery Repugnicans

More of the same, just the GOP making another non-white look like a terrorist, the whole fear thing. Same sh!t, same red meat, same lies, all to feed the fears of the simple minded. You know, their base.
