Liberal Group Zings GOP Rep. Steve King
Mediaite reports:
Over the past few weeks, Iowa Congressman Steve King showed that he’s not one to mince words on illegal immigration. He might, however, want to look into how to rip videos. King sent out a fundraising email to his supporters Monday morning with a video of a speech from last year, in which he argued that America’s immigration system should choose the “pick of the litter” from “donor countries.” These remarks led recently to a feisty exchange with Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, who accused King of comparing immigrants to dogs, a claim King vociferously denied. King asked his supporters to decide for themselves whether he was “complimenting immigrants.” But the video he embedded was taken from American Bridge, a liberal activist group. When they noticed King was playing their media, they snuck in a couple messages to his donors.
