"People who would not even spell the word vote or say it in English put a committed socialist ideologue in the White House...named Barack Hussein Obama," he said.
Yes, that's right. The president is a socialist, his supporters illiterate.
Today, Tancredo stood by his comments. "These people didn't have the slightest idea about what America is all about, about the Constitution," he said. "And they went and voted!"
FTR, I don't think Tancredo's remarks here were especially "racist." They are wrong and without class though. Who are these that "can't speak English" and are illiterate that he accuses of voting in a Presidential election? Very harsh words showing very little faith in the American people. Not exactly Jeffersonian.

They are not racist. A lot of whites voted for BO. But he has a point when Acorn goes out and enlists voters to vote for BO, many of whom needed help to register. We have a pretty illiterate nation. Our schools focus on social agendas more than the basics needed to succeed in the work place
BTW where did Tea Party come in and did anyone ask her if she knew what "innate" means?

Wonderful, gracious words.
Care to say why she's an "idiot" and why you are "ashamed" of her?

You'll have to do the research yourself, like I did, to find out. I don't have the time nor the inclination.

Then maybe you should refrain from such acidic language as to call someone an idiot if you can't articulte why?

I'll say whatever I want and you can ignore me. I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
If you had already studied Meghan McCain, you wouldn't be asking my why I called her an idiot anyway.  Okay, she is an airhead. That better?

Re: The Race Card Again???
You could see that? lol
I didn't realize she was a prominent enough person in the political landscape to "study." I mean, she's the daughter of a U.S. Senator. Any links for resources and additional information about her?

Jeffrey,
Do a Google search of live interviews. LOL! That should be enough.
The View, Fox and Friends, etc.

Not a fan, but a defender of her right to correct mischaracterization.
