And yet I personally find nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade either....

The papers and TV stations quote the vacuous dhimmicrat female expressing outrage over Bruce (he is an ass, but not often wrong) . The talk show call ins are saying, “...what did he say that was incorrect?”

And one wonders why the MSM is collapsing.

I just love watching libs getting completely pissed off by a statement that is factually correct.

Political speech in government proceedings is the most protected speech we have. If that goes away....then I dunno.

Have these legislators never heard of the First Amendment? The First Amendment right to free speech was first and foremost intended to protect political speech, which this obviously was. Why isn’t Rep. Bruce hauling Rep. Curry into federal court?

That said, Bruce really ought to refrain from things like kicking photogrpahers for taking his photo. That little snippet of his history will make it a lot harder for him to get justice in connection with this egregious infringement of his First Amendment rights.

Mexico's literacy rate among the under-45 set is about 95%.

Less than 18% of Mexico's population are peasants.

So his statement wasn't just infelicitously stated, it was also factually incorrect.

5,000 illegal immigrants from Mexico will, on average, yield you 4,100 city dwellers and 4,750 readers.

There’s a poll about this incident on www.9news.com that’s ripe for FReeping.

Yes, but this guy is a maniac. He has a long history of “acting out.” Some people there are sick of this man’s antics.

Even though he is right on some issues, kicking people and rejecting resolutions praising veterans is ridiculous.

He got into trouble for being a slum lord, in the past, and has many other brushes like this.

Loose cannon, IMO.

You are right.

Colorado is about one "comprehensive migrant plan" away from becoming a third-world state.

Good luck to 'em all, because people like Curry are going to run that state straight into the ground.

The only claim to offense these people have is the politically correct climate they set up.

If they would figure out what the words meant and understand them (instead of dressing them up) they would recognize that some words are exactly what they mean.

I travel a lot by Greyhound, and see lots of migrant workers. The only thing I have ever seen them reading are these comic books the size of paperback books...

Seems like Bruce nailed it, and the legislature hates the truth.

But how many can read ENGLISH?

Wow, you must be a statistician or something coming up with those impressive figures. Or you are an idiot.
