Gov. Bredesen criticizes lawmaker for 'rats' comment
Gov. Bredesen criticizes lawmaker for 'rats' comment

Gov. Phil Bredesen says it was a "very poor choice of words" for a Republican state lawmaker to liken illegal immigrants having children in the United States to rats multiplying.
The Democratic governor, who leaves office in January, told reporters in Nashville Friday that he "would never refer to any human being in that way."
Rep. Curry Todd of Collierville made the comments at a legislative hearing earlier this week during a discussion a federal requirement to extend prenatal care to women regardless of their citizenship status.
Todd said that means illegal immigrants can "go out there like rats and multiply."
Todd later told The Associated Press that it was wrong to use those words, but told WHBQ-TV in Memphis that he doesn't plan to apologize.

He could have PCed it and said they multiply like rabbits. It's true, they have twice as many children here as in their home country. They have twice as many children as Americans and at a younger age.

He has nothing to apologize for. The ones who need to apologize are the politicians who are turning a blind eye to this obvious anchor baby scam committed by illegal invaders who are abusing this country and laws.
