Rep. Alcee Hastings told an audience of Jewish Democrats Wednesday that they should be wary of Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin because “anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks.”

“If Sarah Palin isn’t enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention,” Rep. Alcee Hastings of Florida said at a panel about the shared agenda of Jewish and African-American Democrats Wednesday. Hastings, who is African-American, was explaining what he intended to tell his Jewish constituents about the presidential race. “Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through,” Hastings added as the room erupted in laughter and applause.

After telling attendees that the most important thing Jewish and African-American Democrats could do to support one another was to get Sen. Barack Obama elected president, Hastings had one more message: “For those of you like me that supported Sen. Hillary Clinton, she lost! Get over it!”

I believe you, but don’t look at me, mate — I didn’t post it.

I know. I wanted to post the CNN source because it’s almost too incredible to believe.

What an utterly deplorable, hateful, slanderous thing to say!

Maybe CNN could offer a more accurate headline:

“Florida congressman suggests hunters are anti-Semitic, racists.”

He’s just trying to nail down the mentally ill demographic.

And we all know how similar Blacks and Moose are, right? And also how similar Jews and Moose are?

What's Alcee been adding to his beverages lately?

[sodpoodle]

Where did citizens learn this hatred? Public schools? Families? Churches? The streets? Television? Movies? Newspapers?

How is this bile supposed to solve problems?

Florida Jews used to be New York Jews.

Hastings, who is African-American

No, he is just an illiterate racist.

[SAJ]

OK, I believe you. What does that have to do with the price of eggs in Chicago?

[Joe Boucher]

Here in Florida we call the place little N.Y. cause so damn many New Yorkers have moved here to get the hell out of N.Y.
But now Florida is way too much like N.Y. cept for the cold, crowds, rush, and Jets & Yankees.

Palin: NOT A CROOK
Palin: Not an impeached Federal Judge
Can you say the same "Mr." Hastings?

[DGHoodini]

Hastings, once again, proving he’s nothing more than a “Step and Fetchit” for the DemoKlan, hawking their racism, and religious division lies, to get his DemoKlan masters what they want, so they will give him his big house table scraps.

Attaboy, Alcee. You just keep on keeping on.
