    Ad that upset Hispanics disappears from political Web site

    http://www.waff.com/Global/story.asp?S=5296262

    WASHINGTON An online ad that upset some Hispanics has vanished from a political Web site.
    The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee had been running the ad. It featured images of Osama bin Laden and North Korea's leader -- as well as two people scaling a border fence -- with the words "Feel Safer?"

    It was meant to question Republican policies on homeland security. But it drew complaints from Hispanics who say it unfairly depicts illegal aliens as terrorists.

    As for what happened to the ad, the committee isn't saying. A spokesman didn't return a call or e-mail. There was no announcement. And a link to the ad now goes somewhere else.

    At least they tried! They almost HAVE to address the issue, and of course, we know the Dems are all open borders anyway......

    Bush is a foreign agent at this point....

    As far as I'm concerned illegal aliens are domestic terrorists. So if the shoe fits....

    I'd feel better and safer if we even realistically had a fence
