FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cherry Hills Village, Colorado -- Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo (R) is not now and never was Italian. Rumors to the contrary are being spread by liberal elites intent on discrediting the Congressman's crusade to protect America's borders from People Who Don't Look Like Us. In plain point of fact, Thomas Tancredo is a descendant of the old Tancredwycke family of Gloucestershire, Great Britain (and, later, Philadelphia, Mississippi) which fought bravely for the Crown during the Rebellion of the North American Colonies and for States Rights in the War of Northern Aggression. The Congressman's father, Angus Tancredwycke, changed the family name in the 1940s in a misguided attempt to meet women. As a good faith attempt allay any doubts about his ancestry, Congressman Tancredo is releasing his family's Hard Sauce recipe which has been enjoyed by generations of Tancredwyckes at Thanksgiving Dinner ever since they came over on the Mayflower.
