Joe Walsh Accused Of Racial Insensitivity For Referring To Obama As ‘Son’

[Swede]

But he is one mean dumb effin' hater.




At a campaign barbecue in his district Sunday, Walsh was explaining what he hopes will be the tea party’s role in the election:

“There’s something different on the ground, and I think it’s going to overtake us all again, think it’s going to overtake the political class. I think it’s going to respectfully pick this president up and pat him on the head and say, son, son, son, Mr. President, you were never ready to be president, now go home and work for somebody and find out how the real world works.”

1. "pat him on the head" what a condescending prick...

...can't wait 'til Tammy Duckworth sends this prick back to the private sector in November...

7. And when he goes back I hope he doesn't find a job for years.

2. At least he didn't call him a pickaninny.....

3. Ah, he didn't want to say "boy" so ...why aren't these guys proud of their racism?

4. Isn't this the creep that skipped out on child support?

Talk about grow up! Such a hateful jerk.

11. You hope (me too).

He lives in a strange district. Tammy could beat him, but I wouldn't be surprised if he won, even with her popularity and name recognition. I live in a blue state, but the pockets of red are stubborn, teahadist-ridden places.

6. if Obamas his son then Walsh owes him money

Obama should ask him for his child support check.

8. Pardon my French, but what an asshole.

He just buries himself deeper and deeper. I really hope Tammy Baldwin mops up the floor with him on November 6.

9. Racial Insensitivity?

Is that what they are calling it now?

[russspeakeasy]

10. What are the local polls saying ?

[Curtland1015]

12. A guy I know works in a fish market, one of his coworkers calls every group of guys that come in...

..."Boys".

"What can I can you boys today!?", he'd say. Not meant in a racist way, just (what he thought was) a friendly thing he'd say.

Well one day a group of older black gentleman came in and he said "What can I can you boys today!?"

They didn't take it so well. He wasn't trying to be racist, but geez, use a little COMMON SENSE!



That said, I can't say I'm sure Joe Walsh meant nothing by what HE said in any kind of racist way. There's a good chance he DID, but even if he was only trying to be a condescending douche bag... WATCH WHAT THE HELL YOU SAY.

What a moron.

16. If this shitstain had ever shown an iota of decency or couth,I would too.

But he hasn't.
