AUDIO of racist pig Geoff Davis
Davis, with audio

If you're a glutton for punishment, here's the audio of (.mp3) of Geoff Davis's comments, from the blog of the Lexington Herald-Leader. (And I suspect somebody who works for Chuck Schumer is looking very hard right now for video, a much more powerful medium, of Mitch McConnell's remarks, and of his reaction to Davis.)

In the full context, Davis links Obama's voting record (he mentions the House, but I think he's talking about the Illinois "present" votes) as further evidence that Obama "could not make a deicision in that simulation that related to a nuclear threat to this country."

A Davis aide yesterday wouldn't elaborate the details of the simulation.

1. hey, but you know, people right here at DU insisted he's not a racist pig
and that using the term "boy" was just an affectionate term.

2. I'd like to see that a**hole stand in the same room and say those affectionate words to Mike Tyson.

Anyone who claims that "boy" was used as a run-of-the-mill affectionate southern term
probably thinks the KKK is just a friendly neighborhood watch association.

Yeah, right on both counts.

5. Thanks, jefferson. Has the Obama campaign made a statement on it?
We should use it to hammer home the rethug's racism. Notice how 99% of racist statements from elected officials come from rethugs? We do but most of the public does not and we must make them realize this.
