Crazy Terrorist Loving Liberals!

Not only is Judge Sotomayor an unrepentant racist, but it appears she is now an unrepentant terrorist too!



This new TV ad (which probably will only run for free on cable news) is using her tenure on the board of the Puerto Rican Legal Defense fund as proof of her complicity with terrorists. It would appear they are referring to FALN, a Puerto Rican separatist group, who was responsible for some acts of violence in the US during the 70s and 80s. Basically, someone at the PRLDEF criticized the Mayor of New York for calling them "assassins," because some Puerto Ricans supported the cause. There isn't anything connecting Judge Sotomayor to this group save her connection with PRLDEF, but I guess that doesn't matter.

A similar attack was used against Harold Ford Jr. in his run for Senate in 2006. The Corker campaign used his Present vote on a non-binding resolution criticizing then President Clinton for pardoning some low level members of the organization.
