Pete Hoekstra's Racist Ad

The Michigan Republican began taking heat after his ad targeting Democratic incumbent Debbie Stabenow as "Debbie Spenditnow" ran statewide Sunday during the Super Bowl. Hoekstra defended the ad, calling it a "home run" during an interview with Detroit radio WJR-AM's Paul W. Smith. He said it's only "insensitive" to the spending philosophy of Stabenow and Democratic President Barack Obama. Pete Hoekstra also thinks that the earth is 6,000 years old and global warming is a liberal conspiracy.
