Fox uses nun's death to advance false attacks against Democrats
Do these people have no shame?

http://mediamatters.org/research/201008040032

Politicizing the death of a Virginia nun who was killed by an unauthorized immigrant in a drunk driving accident, Fox & Friends hosted Republican Corey Stewart who falsely claimed that Democrats in Congress and the Obama administration have underfunded Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In fact, data shows that funding for ICE has increased significantly since Democrats took control of Congress, and deportations of unauthorized immigrants who have committed crimes are at a record high under Obama.

1. Yep all the ills in the US are the cause of Democrats by the way
didn't they start the wars in Afgan and Iraq. And didn't they cause the attack on the Twin towers. And worst of all send that hurricane into New Orleans so a lot of people drowned.

3. They couldn't use this accident for fodder if it weren't true that no one has ever been killed as
the result of drunk driving before this incident. Only 13,846 died because of their fellow Americans in 2008.
