Vern's reality check

A Pakistani man charged with immigration violations after being arrested while videotaping Charlotte, N.C., skyscrapers is showcased in a new TV campaign spot for a North Carolina Republican.

Vernon Robinson, a Winston-Salem City Council member running for the 5th District House seat in a primary today, offers a message that includes Kamran Akhtar — arrested July 20. Mr. Akhtar also had videotaped buildings in Dallas, Houston and Las Vegas, the Associated Press reported yesterday.

Mr. Robinson's ad shows a picture of Mr. Akhtar with the following advisory: "This is Pakistani terrorist Kamran Akhtar. He got arrested videotaping targets in Charlotte, North Carolina. He came here illegally, across our Mexican border."

The candidate notes: "I'm Vernon Robinson, and I approve this message because Akhtar didn't come here to live the American dream. He came here to kill you."

Sweet.

And all the cries of "Willie Horton" that are sure to follow will be as effective for the Dems now as they were for Dukakis.

Evil has a name and a face.

Sounds like Mr. Cain did. Maybe this guy will actually win?

LOL, that is a great ad, I wish I could see it. But where is this illegal immigrant today. You just don't know what's going on in the WOT sometimes. They blow some guy's cover in Pakistan, they are denying this guy is a terrorist, which, I'm sorry to say he almost certainly is. Either a terrorist or a terrorist aider and abettor. Plus, he's illegal, so why were they saying he's a tourist? Would he be able to sue this politician now? I mean willie horton was convicted of the crimes mentioned in the ad.

I don't want them sending that Paki back to Elmhurst, that I can tell you.

He's in a runoff now. He finished first in the primary, but didn't get 50%.

That quicktime ad was Awesome. Here in Jacksonville, something like that would play pretty well, but I wonder about the rest of the state...

Check out this one: http://www.elizalde.homestead.com/index2.html

It's an ad from Victor Elizalde, who's running against Henry Waxman in CA's 30th District (West LA, Beverly Hills).
