Over at her website's forum (one poster so far, but it's early), Robin Brown, challenging Sara Gelser for the HD 16 seat, makes this extraordinary statement:

...except for emergency services, we need to stop giving aid and services to illegal aliens, which are bankrupting our state and overcrowding our health clinics.

So the crisis in health care is because of illegal immigrants.  That's a new one, but the Rs do so like to blame "others" for every problem under the sun.  No sense finding the real source of the health care problem -- the selling of care to the highest bidders, profit-driven corporations, lousy preventative care; how much easier to point fingers at the villian du jour.

And the same people, 600,000 is the number I've heard given for Oregon, are bankrupting the state.  Not the war that is sucking money by the billions from Oregon taxpayers' pockets.  Not the massive tax cuts given to the richest, not the imbecilic corporate tax structure.  How much simpler to dump all the blame on these vermin crawling over the border like cockroaches sneaking out from under the cupboards... oh dear, I may be putting words into her mouth.

If you want  scapegoats that let you ignore the real problems, head on over to Robin Brown's Amateur Hour; she's got the wingnut skillset going damn good.
