RealClearPolitics ^ | June 24, 2010 | RealClearPolitics

Posted on 06/24/2010 7:06:16 AM PDT by i88schwartz

Rep. Paul Kanjorski (D-PA): "We're giving relief to people that I deal with in my office every day now unfortunately. But because of the longevity of this recession, these are people and they're not minorities and they're not defective and they're not all the things you'd like to insinuate that these programs [are] about, these are average, good American people."

You misunderstand. This is a backhanded way of accusing Republicans of thinking black people are defective.

“Now who can argue with that? I think we’re all in debt to Rep. Paul Kanjorski for stating what needed to be said...Not only was it authentic political gibberish, it expressed the courage little seen in this day and age. “

Om nom nom nom foot.

Not that it’ll ever be reported or followed up on by the MFM, of course.

Thats how I would expect the media to play it, if they even touch it at all.

My guess is it will be ignored...because it wasn't said by a Republican.

Good find. I collect exactly these kind of statements, and have quite a few. Here are some of my favorites:

"These Negroes, they're getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we've got to do something about this, we've got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference. For if we don't move at all, then their allies will line up against us and there'll be no way of stopping them, we'll lose the filibuster and there'll be no way of putting a brake on all sorts of wild legislation. It'll be Reconstruction all over again." –- Democrat President Lyndon B. Johnson

"I think one man is just as good as another so long as he's not a n*gger or a Chinaman. Uncle Will says that the Lord made a White man from dust, a n*gger from mud, then He threw up what was left and it came down a Chinaman. He does hate Chinese and Japs. So do I. It is race prejudice, I guess. But I am strongly of the opinion Negroes ought to be in Africa, Yellow men in Asia and White men in Europe and America." –- Democrat President Harry Truman

"Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds." –-Democrat Senator Robert Byrd

By “good people” they mean “good Democrats”. They will never never NEVER allow us to decide who we wish to charitably assist.

Thieves pretending to be philanthropists.

Calling Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson!
Next step for the Dimwit rep: My remarks were taken out of context and I am sorry if I have offended anyone.
Jackson, Sharpton and Pelosi accept apology, everything is just fine again.
Now let’s talk about that evil oil loving Barton.

Wow. Those are some interesting quotes. And DemocRATs pretend to care so much for Black folks. Sad that so many in my community actually believe that garbage too. Do you have these quotes posted online?

Minorities are defective? Now they tell me. So what does this PA Dem plan on doing about the defective president?

You should send your quotes list to Glen Beck.

He will get them fact checked and use them on his show. He is the only one with the balls to show them on TV.

“please tell me this guy is in a competetive district and please tell me that this makes into his opponents campaign ads”

According to John Murtha, may he rest is piss, all PA voters are racists. According to Mr. Skittles they are bitter people clinging to their guns and God. I think this pretty well illustrates the ruling elite’s opinion of PA voters both black and white. Truly uplifting philosophy these ivy league avatars of socialism hold for their fellow man.

I never got a single darn plugged nickle from any of these government giveaways.

Guess I’m defective.
