Udall Screws Up Introducing First Lady: ‘We Judge People By The Content Of Their Color’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 10/24/14

Posted on 10/26/2014 5:18:46 AM PDT by Impala64ssa

While introducing Michelle Obama at a campaign event on Friday, Sen. Mark Udall (D., Colo.) invoked the words of the late great Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., to add some gravitas to the First Lady’s appearance.

Unfortunately, they were the wrong words.

“I’m so proud of our country. In 2008 and 2012, we showed that Dr. Martin Luther King had it right,” Udall said. “Which is that in America, at our best, we judge people by the content of their color–”

Udall’s crowd began to groan, and the embattled Democratic senator quickly corrected himself on the oft-quoted phrase.

“Content of their character, not the color of their skin,” Udall said. “I got it right–I got it both ways!”

Yeah, but did the First Wookie get his name pronounced correctly?

Black Race Privilege is everywhere in our society so he accidentally spoke the truth.

Well, the other day he said he was ‘brain dead’, here’s more proof.

Or his correct biography? Maybe it was a freudian slip.

the judgement intended was the melanin content of their skin but it was poorly stated

If Udall did not have the Udall name he would not be anybody! Time to fix that Colorado!

Taxpayer-funded, unelected First Wookie gets to campaign openly for the candidate of her choice from a powerful soapbox, and yet churches have to keep their mouths shut.

Our Founders are spinning in their graves.

Whaddya know? Freud was right. Democrats most definitely do judge people based on the content of their color.

Hey, it coulda been worse. W/O/W obsessed-Udall might have told voters to judge Michelle "on the content of her vagina."

ROTFL.

=====================================================

REALITY CHECK The Wash/Post reports Colorado Democrat Mark Udall's got a big problem---he has leaned on the W/O/W strategy so often, he's been dubbed "Mark Uterus."

Coached by the DNC, Udall endorses free-for-all, no limits, abortion and has perfected the Democrat party line: "For the government to step in at any stage of the pregnancy to militarize a woman's vagina is the equivalent of enslaving a woman to the inconvenient fetus just because she had sex w/ some selfish male in heat. I urge women to place their own interests ahead of the parasites feeding off her body."

Sen Udall's vigilant Vagina Oversight Commiitte includes:
Buddy Balzer. Nikita Genitalia, and Sheldon Sheather
(on-loan from PlannedParenthood's Protection-R-Us).

"I'm pleased to announce Hardy Thruster has joined my vigilant vagina oversight team."

LIBs are mentally ill. All LIBs. It is just that some have positions of power and responsibility. Those that don’t are irritating but somewhat amusing. Kind of like watching monkeys at a zoo.

The truth hurts doesn’t it Udall? Even a professional liar has to leak out what he’s really thinking every now and then. It really must be difficult for some to be democrats. So many lies to keep up with. Your life is just one big pile of BS.
