Texas Republican Sen. John Cornyn is defending a social media post about President Obama's health care program that's drawing calls of racism and insensitivity:
"POTUS sez you can get O-care questions answered in 150 different languages - is English one of them?" Cornyn's press office defends this post as a legitimate policy question, but two Texas political experts say it is not.
"There are a lot of smart, useful questions that could be asked about the health care program. This is not one of them," said Cal Jillson, an SMU political science professor. "This is snide and demeaning. There's no reason for it."
No policy reason, maybe, but Jillson said there is a political reason.
"He's talking to the tea party,” Jillson said.

No, relevant and accurate.

“but two Texas political experts say it is not.”
Well, thank goodness there are people out there who can decide for this poor addled-minded voter what is snide and what is acceptable!
I guess now that’s taken care of, I can go back to rooting in the dirt for edible tubers and fearing the magic spirits that inhabit the rocks by my cave.
Be as snide as needs be to get this POS repealed and it author incarcerated.
Oh Oh
Bullying on social media.
I’d say these “”consultants” are losers and out of touch. Just who would pay them for anything?
However, Cornyn supported ObamaCare when he voted for Cloiture on the recent House resolution/Shutdown
Folks need to wake up as to who really supports Obamacare. Real Conservatives are not fooled by Cornyn
We’ll see how long it takes him to apologize and walk the (truthful) comment back.
Remember that Cornyn recently launched efforts to run for re-election. Short of that he’s trying to gain some of the Cruz spotlight. As a RINO every other day of the year he can be thoroughly ignored.
Thank you! Cornball had a chance to do the right thing on his Cloture Vote - he could've even stood with Cruz - but, he chose to stand with his ilk (McConnell, McCain, etc.)
The “expert” was smug and condescending. Spooky dude.
Yeah because only leftists can be snide & demeaning! How dare Republicans copy Obama!!!
CORNYN FOLDED. HE IS NOT A CONSERVATIVE. You remember this and remember it well. TED CRUZ fought to stop this . Cornhole cowarded with his buddy McAmnesty in the cloche room, Cornyn is crap. He is scrambling to save his ass. You Texans KICK HIM OUT !!
So,what’s the answer? Is English one of them? Then again, what difference does it make when the TOTUS says call 1-800-PHONE TREE and the operators say “go to the website?” There’s no one to talk to.
Ordinarily I would defend in case of PC attacks.But Cornyn is a RINO snake.
Because no liberal would EVER be snide and demeaning.
This “journalist” reporting this needs to take a look at all the snide comments from Obama and company before reporting this one.
Wow, 2 people think that was snide.
Cornyn is still a joke and needs to go, but I’ll give him props for a good Tweet.
