“Our party was built upon the beliefs of President Abraham Lincoln

What beliefs, to slaughter hundreds of thousands and destroy 1/3 of the country because elections couldn't produce a desired result?

“Some Republicans?” Which Republians, Mr. Hurd? No need to kowtow to PC unless you know precisely which Republicans currently in Congress, besides Steve King, have been racist.

As for Steve King, he deserves to be under the bus while it rolls back and forth over him. Thank God the GOP has the balls to clean up some of its own messes.

I guess Hurd is really not smart enough to understand that no matter what Republicans do or don’t do, unless they give women, blacks, muslims, LGBQ etc exactly what they want, they will be accused of all the isms. People like Hurd don’t accept the fact that we are in a way and his mealy mouth utterances do not help because it gives the left ammo. Republicans are so stupid.

I'm getting awfully tired of Republicans running to the MSM to put their foot in their mouth.

It’s apparent the left’s efforts to equate truth with racism have altered the perspectives of otherwise intelligent conservatives.

"Rep. Will Hurd (R-Texas) wrote in a USA Today op-ed Sunday"

No self-respecting human being would write for one of the most vile, ultraleftist, lying, hate rags as the USSR Today.

>>And a news flash: Some Democrats have made racist comments.

Pretty much the entire Congressional Black Caucus has made appearances with Louis Farrakhan, who is a stone cold racist. No one holds them to account for it.

STFU MORON! Maybe someone should check into his past statements and “private” conversations and see just how “lily white” (opps! PC ALERT!) clean he really is.

Something about a dog sniffing or something comes to mind .../s

When are people going to come out and outline to the nation who the true racists and bigots are?

The list is long and the comments would put anyone else in the gulag in a New York minute.

Jamie Foxx, Louis Farakkhan, Biraq 0bama, Michelle 0bama, Al Sharpton, Wendy Williams, half the NFL and most of the NBA, La Raza, ChC, CBC...and the list goes on.

It’s high time they stop getting away with it.

Hurd is a selfish guy running in a swing district and looking out for #1. He’s bro buddies with dirtbag Beto. It’s only a matter of time until these RINOS are back to running as Democrats.

He’s a climbing careerist about to get hit by the tidal wave of incoming Democrat voters. I’ll have a chuckle when his political career drowns.

He almost lost in November. I don’t expect he’ll survive the next GOP primary in 2020 pandering to the open borders crowd.

“People believe what they believe, and they aren’t going to consider anything somebody on the other side says as better evidence than what they say themselves.”

That is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read here, from a poster who insists on defending Mrs. Obama’s purported gender, because “there is no evidence” to the contrary.

They are standing up for their own people.

What's wrong with that?

My point is they all have long history of being hypocrites with respect to racism and bigotry.

They all have said or insinuated things about whites that had situations been reversed, the white person would have been ostracized and roasted by the media.

Do you not know this?

Really?! Look at his district. He’s a ‘rat with an “R” behind his name.
