It was no tongue slip, no mindless gaffe.

Known for his comfort behind microphones and finely tuned political instincts, Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. has refused to apologize or retreat from remarks on a radio show last week in which he called multiculturalism "bunk" and "crap."

Didja hear that idiot Plotkin on WTOP this morning blasting him for it? I'll never believe another word out of his mouth - he outright lied about the governor not wanting anybody with an accent, anybody who celebrates different holidays, etc., around.

The candidate wants people who are selling hamburgers in America to Americans, to be able to understand the word "hamburger" in English, and this is his response.

"Your hectoring Hispanics is reminiscent ... of Adolph Hitler who singled out Jews as the cause of all the problems, real and imagined, befallen Germany after World War I," Ribas wrote, also invoking McCarthyism, former Alabama Gov. George Wallace and lynchings.

Prime example of stinky, festering fecal matter.

Yes! A republican politician with 'nads!

BTW, didn't multiculturalism contribute to the fall of Rome... uh-huh yes, I believe it did.

Memo to Gov. Ehrlich:

You know that you're going to be hounded by the left-wing media and sanctimonious, race-baiting a$$holes like Jesse Jackson to apologize for those comments. Please ... stick to your guns and don't be intimidated!

Please do not apologize for telling the truth!

The dem mayor of Baltimore is a rising DNC star and will take on (r)Erhlich in the next election.

The white Dem mayor was elected only becuase 2 black dems split the vote and he is doing all he can to get into the good graces of minoities including giving $3,000 "bounties" to any hispanic families that move to Baltimore.

Vietnamese, Polish, Italian, and other immigrants need not apply.

Currently the entire dem city council is under investigation by the feds.

Nice job Gov - calling it like it is. Here's more ammo for ya:

PCBS = Politically Correct Bull Sh..

[Leatherneck_MT]

Gotta love this guy :)

[blanknoone]

Bravo Governor. Kudos for saying it, and many many more kudos for not surrendering to their PCBS.

[American_Centurion]

Sometimes the similarities between the US and Rome are frightening, but hey we based our representative form of government on the Republic of Rome.

Here's to learning not to repeat mistakes from history.

[Luke21]

This article takes the cake for bias. In this case, why Ehrlich shouldn't have said it from many points of view.

Way to go. A politician telling the truth. Imagine that.

"Multicultural Crap". Kinda catchy, don't ya think? I like this man and it is true what he is saying. The elitists are just talking through their hats when they try to tell you they believe this mumbo. They will never do anything really for people, except, of course, themselves. Well maybe you can get a job as a slave. Look at Ceaser Chavez; he gave his people outhouses and not much else.

[Old Sarge]

I'm Impressed.

[EternalHope]

Bravo!!!
