Please read Tancredo's letter to Kansas voters, it is powerful! Moran is a complete fraud on this issue.

Tancredo withdraws support from Moran, backs TiahrtLeading immigration foe Tom Tancredo, the former Colorado congressman, today withdrew his endorsement of Kansas Senate candidate Jerry Moran and gave it to rival candidate Todd Tiahrt.

In doing so, Tancredo said Moran had deceived him.

Tancedo wrote this (as released by the Tiahrt camp):

Dear Kansan,

In February of this year I endorsed Congressman Jerry Moran for the United States Senate.

I came to this difficult conclusion after receiving untrue and incomplete information from the Moran for Senate campaign and Congressman Moran himself.

After independent research, I have learned disturbing information about Congressman Moran’s support of amnesty and benefits for illegal immigrants.

He voted against my amendment to defund sanctuary cities, essentially granting amnesty to all illegal immigrants in each of those cities.

Congressman Moran also voted with Nancy Pelosi to remove citizenship verification for illegal immigrants to receive welfare benefits.

Then he raised your taxes to pay for those health care benefits.

Congressman Moran even opposed money to secure our borders and build the fence.

In addition to hiding his own record, Congressman Moran distorted and maligned Congressman Todd Tiahrt’s record on illegal immigration. Congressman Tiahrt has been innovative in his approach to sealing the borders, written legislation to close loopholes so you and I don’t pay for benefits to illegal immigrants, and led the charge to keep tough immigration laws at the forefront of the debate in Congress when so many others are letting President Obama take the lead.

Because I care about the burden illegal immigration places on this country, I am withdrawing my endorsement of Congressman Moran and proudly endorsing Congressman Todd Tiahrt.

If you care about the damage illegal immigration does to our society, I hope you can join me in supporting and voting for Congressman Todd Tiahrt.

Congressman Tom Tancredo

Tancredo served in Congress with Moran, yet was unfamiliar with his voting record?

They make THOUSANDS of votes, and there are quite a few different Congress critters to keep track of.

I believe Tancredo.

He made a mistake.

He is now correcting his mistake!

So, now Tancredo is getting around to endorsing Sarah’s candidate? LOL.

Better late than never!!!

Hasn’t McCain endorsed Moran?

And yet, we have posters here claiming that McCain controls Palin and that she’s just like him. *sigh*

Here’s one for you, pissant.

Tancredo finally figures out McCain’s guy deceived him on “ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION” so he’s now endorsed SARAH PALIN’S CANDIDATE!

Oh come now, she's an amnesty queen, so she's obviously supporting all of McCain's candidates. After all, he runs her campaign........

*rolls eyes at Pissant*

Amnesty (sung to the tune of Dancing Queen)

In a trance, you can jive, yap like a bored House-wife
(ooo-oooo) See that girl, watch her preen, dig in for Amnes-teee

Friday night and the cameras roll
With Sean or Bill or Geral-do
Where they underhand you softballs, teaching you to swing
Might as well be on Larry King

Anybody with a heart would cry
To see Juan and Pedro and Gomez fry
In the Arizona desert, with the gila monsters
Then havin’ to hear Tancredo’s rants
And when you get the chance...

You are for Amnes-tee, as you tweet, a real Mexi-queen
Amnes-tee, feel the guilt from that Limousine (oh yeah)
As if by chance, you arrive, shakier than Barney Fife
(ooo-ooooo) See that girl, on the TV screen, dig in for Amnes-tee

Like old McCain, you can turn it on
“Guest workers”, “Register”, and “who’ll mow my lawn?”
Looking out for all our brothers, even with swine flu
You parrot Juan’s stance
And when you get the chance...

You are for Amnes-Tee, they cut our meat, and they change our sheets
Amnes-tee, so the elite can learn that Salsa beat (oh yeah)
Just like France, festering hives, creating a third world strife
(ooo-oooo) See that girl, just like Charlie Sheen, dig in for Amnes-tee

False?

She's a RINO just like Reagan was! She supports McCain, she only said she doesn't support amnesty dozens of times (not thousands), wants to build the entire fence, wants to send troops to the border, supports the Az law, so she's clearly a RINO on immigration.

Everyone knows.......it's obvious.....

:-)

*Sung to the tune of a two year old*

Waaaaaaaaaaaaah, she's a RINO.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah, she's just like McCain.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, he runs her campaign.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, all her supporters worship her.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, she's a bad, bad human.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, waaaaaaaaaaaah.

Thus ends all of pissant's tantrums.

Notice the absense of others? This doesn’t fit the agenda.

You pinged me here, if I’m not mistaken. If you don’t want me to comment on your amnesty queen, don’t ping me.
