Racist ad from from Hoekstra?

[Ravi]

“Debbie spend so much American money, you borrow more and more from us,” says a young Asian woman riding her bike through rice paddies at the beginning of the 30-second ad. “You’re economy get very weak. Ours get very good. We take your jobs. Thank you Debbie ‘Spend It Now.’”

It is the racial undertones of the ad that have critics up in arms. The Associated Press reports that Michigan GOP consultant Nick De Leeuw called the ad “appalling” and the Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote’s Michigan chapter condemned the ad as “very disturbing.”

“It is very disturbing that Mr. Hoekstra’s campaign chose to use harmful and negative stereotypes that intrinsically encourage anti-Asian sentiment,” the group said in a statement Sunday.

Hoekstra responded to the barrage of criticism Sunday night, writing on his Facebook page that “Democrats trying to make this an issue of race demonstrates their total ignorance of job creation policies.”

I don't see how it is racist but it is funny and ironic that a Republican would say Democrats are ignorant when it Republican trickle down economics and unFree Trade Agreements that got us in this mess.

Yeah, it makes Hoekstra a dishonest asshole for pretending he isn't being criticized by Republicans.

I agree.

It's not a strong position indeed.

I don't really care who's criticizing who. It's not racist to point out the destruction of this country by incompetent bastards of either party.

RACISM?!?!?!? Really????

Oh my GAWD... every time you guys turn over a rock there is either:

1. Racism
2. Exploitative Rich People
3. Racism AND Exploitative Rich People

You need to get a new war cry. This is getting to be a badge of honor.

Have you been called a racist by the left-wing? No? Next, it's obvious you're not doing or saying much.

Another one that ignored the criticism from Republicans.

Interesting.

I think its pretty rude to imitate asian accents and misuse of English grammar.

Reads like a racial stereotype to me:

You&#8217;re economy get very weak. Ours get very good. We take your jobs.

We got a lot of Mexicans in China who own our debt?

The bigger problem here is that Chinese start thinking that way. They probably should.

There was NOTHING racist about it....and it was pretty good!
Hoekstra went to the grand opening in Holland Mi when Obama was there speaking at the new car battery plant, about a year ago. Obama knew he was there, and purposefully put Hoekstra down in front of everyone. Debbie "Spenditnow" is just an obama puppet.

Signed,
Michigan voter for Hoekstra!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever.... what isn't racist anymore? You guys get back to me when your ready to discuss honestly what the progressives have done to minorities in terms of locking them into generational poverty in return for votes.
