Don't Vote Campaign to dupe Latinos into not voting. Most Un-American thing I have ever seen. - GoFuckYourself.com

Univision, the most popular Spanish language television station in America, announced that it would not run ads sponsored by a Republican-funded 527 that urged Hispanics not to vote in the upcoming midterm elections because Democrats had failed to follow through on their promise of enacting comprehensive immigration reform.

"Don't vote this November," a narrator tells viewers in Spanish. "This is the only way to send them a clear message, you can no longer take us for granted. Don't vote."

The group, Latinos for Reform, got the bad news in a phone call from Univision on Tuesday, just two days before the first ads were to be run on the station. On Twitter, meanwhile, the station posted the rationale for its decision.

Don't you have to be a legal US citizen to be able to register and vote anyways?

I don't think there should be a message that says "don't vote." People should vote, even if they don't like anybody in the elections. The voter can still decide who is the best out of the picks.

Is your contention that there are no Spanish speaking latino US citizens?

Not at all, was made in jest, please unwad your panties and have a laugh. Not everything has to be PC these days.

But I do find it funny that some of the people running here in California are pandering to the illegal immigrants and their 'rights' to be here and work. Good luck with that vote, hopefully they let us know how many illegals turn out at the polling places to cast a vote.

This exchange supports my call for a sarcasm font, so people know serious from non serious posts.
