McCarthy outdoes himself. Again.

[madamesilverspurs]

Just now, in his remarks on the proposed removal of confederate statues from the capitol, Kevin McCarthy verbally dropped his drawers and mooned the House, all while claiming to support the legislation.

gggaaahhhhhh..........

1. How about some information? What did he say?

[Mad_Machine76]

2. He claimed that the statues

Were all of Democrats

5. That's likely true

Lincoln was a Republican and many in the south at that time were Democrats.

So Kevin, we know this already.

We still want the damned Confederate monuments removed.

Kay?

7. He's doing the same annoying and disingenuous thing they all do when it comes to race

They completely erase the historical context and everything that happened since the 1964 Civil Rights Act to try to pretend somehow that it's the (current) Democratic Party that are the real racists, not the Republicans, despite all of the (current) evidence to the contrary. Republicans never seem to care to wonder why, if the Democrats are supposedly so racist, why almost no African-Americans outside Diamond & Silk will bother to vote for *them*.

6. Yes. And if they were alive today, they'd all be republicans.

How do we know that? Look at all their contemporary supporters.

8. If that's so

Why haven't the Republicans removed them before now? Because while the party labels have changed (and have for more than 60 years), the racists are still racist.

9. Because.........um.........you see............

Eh. I got nothing. They've been fighting for preserving artifacts of the Confederacy for decades as a means of preserving "Southern culture"


You might be a racist if................
