If you haven't heard, supposed independent "TEA party" candidate Jack Davis slugged someone for asking him why he didn't put in an appearance at a debate for the vacant NY-26 race he's campainging to win.
So I got curious if the DUmp has caught wind of this.
They did:

To them it is the GOP staging/inciting the altercation trying to shame Davis out of the race for sucking up their oxygen.
Davis is not new to DU this election. They had a moment of outrage earlier:

'Replace Mexican farm workers with blacks from the inner-city to pick crops'
Congressional candidate Jack Davis shocked local Republican leaders in a recent interview when he suggested that Latino farmworkers be deported -- and that African-Americans from the inner city be bused to farm country to pick the crops.
Several sources who were in the Feb. 20 endorsement interview with Davis confirmed his comments, which echo those he made to the Tonawanda News in 2008, when he said: "We have a huge unemployment problem with black youth in our cities. Put them on buses, take them out there and pay them a decent wage; they will work."

My goodness!
DU will surely be outraged.
Yep, they are...

1. For most of my life, I 've heard racists make similar suggestions
but this is the first time I've heard such idiocy uttered by an actual candidate for public office. They're feeling especially emboldened of late, it appears.

21. I say put Jack Davis and his clan
on buses - let them out to pick. These ****ers would reintroduce slavery in a second - only they have the right to run their own lives.

24. gee, back to the 1800s.
In fairness the statement is shockingly racist. One would have to be an obtuse moron on the caliber of Harry Reid to say such things...
...or he'd be a democrat operative looking to slander the TEA Party.

18. Davis ran as a Democrat and lost
Proving perhaps that many of our elected officals do 'theatre' rather than representing citizens.
Davis, an Akron industrialist, ran for Congress as a Democrat in 2004, 2006 and 2008, and was seeking the GOP nod this time.
Spurned by the party, he is now collecting signatures in hopes of appearing as the Tea Party candidate in the May 24 special election.
Through his campaigns, Davis has struck a populist bent, raging against the impact free trade has had on local manufacturing and the effect illegal immigration has had on the country. Sources said he repeated those sentiments in the February meeting with GOP leaders.
It should be noted that the OP notes the GOP officials in the district immediately blasted the remark.
OK, but do the DUmbasses know Davis as a democrat?
Yes, they do. They've supported Davis in his previous campaigns:

39. Jack Davis
is a very centrist, probably corporatist DLC-DINO type "Democrat". He's wealthy and is running for the second time against Reynolds, whom he did better than expected against 2 years ago. Davis is not a progressive, but considering who he's running against, I'm most likely going to do some phone banking on his behalf as we get closer to the election. I live in an adjoining district and wouldn't be able to face myself in the morning after the election if I don't do something NOW to help bring about the defeat of the detestable Mr. Reynolds.

So a former democrat supported by democrats by virtue of the fact he ran against republicans...
...is suddenly--and conveniently running as a TEA partier even though he has no prior history with them...
...and just as conveniently he starts playing into every stereotype of the TEA Party racist...
...but now they stand behind him again because surely his whole altercation thing is a GOP set-up to get Davis out of the race. Keep the "racist" in and the GOP loses...
...and DU just laps up every chunk of vomit laid before them by their masters.
Shouldn't tools at least be sharp?

Squirrel found an acorn.
"...when he suggested that Latino farmworkers be deported -- and that African-Americans from the inner city be bused to farm country to pick the crops.
Blacks picked cotton, watermelons, cucumbers, apples, peaches, etc., etc., anything to make a living. That is until some DUmbass invented welfare and foodstamps. Since then all they've ever picked was the taxpayers pocket.
Call me racist, I don't care.
-
Squirrel found an acorn...
That's not the point.
Odds are Davis doesn't believe a word of that, he's posing as a TEA partier. more than likely to steal GOP votes and discredit the GOP
DU was all outraged when he said it.
But now he has their sympathy because they believe the GOP incited the on-camera incident yesterday.
The point is DU can't keep their operations and talking points straight.

Sounds like a pretty broad brush you're using to paint that trim work to me.

I agree, and I think we need a mod. I'm thinking here of the treatment of Little Lamb.

Let me try to 'plain myself.
Back before equal rights, before equal opportunity black folks had to work to eat. They had to do whatever to just stay alive. A few were well off or had goodsteady 40+ hours a week jobs. Those that weren't well off (owned property etc.)Blacks picked cotton, watermelons, cucumbers, apples, peaches, etc., etc., anything to make a living. That is until some DUmbass invented welfare and foodstamps. Since then all they've ever picked was the taxpayers pocket.
After equal rights, equal opportunity the well off and those with ambition, some get up and go got up and went. Ergo your How is Herman Cain picking the taxpayers pockets? Larry Elders? Walter Williams? Armstrong Williams? Thomas Sowell? Angela McGlowan? James Earl Jones? Ward Connerly? Niger Innis? etc., etc., etc.?
Those that never were going to be successful found that by voting for the right people allowed them to suck the government tit and never have to do those menial jobs again. So in come the illegal aliens to do them. I never saw migrant or illegal Allen workers in the fields when I was a kid.
So when some politician said... Latino farmworkers be deported -- and that African-Americans from the inner city be bused to farm country to pick the crops. I knew or at least thought I knew who he was talking about, those that have never worked, aren't going to work and are unwilling to work unless they are very hungry. Hungar is a good motivator sometimes.

Back then there were also a lot of whites that worked as migrant farmers.

Yeah, sometimes called sharecroppers....my grandfather on my mothers side was one until he could do better.
Then there was the "poor white trash". They may have had the advantage of white skin but they were to sorry to use it. The poor white trash and those I tried to describe above came from the same mould. They wouldn't work in a pie factory any longer than it took to meet their "right now" needs...to hell with tomorrow.

wow
For a minute there I thought I had an interesting thread.

Sorry 'bout taking it off track. Sometimes my driving is a little wild.
So, (notice I used so), so back to the democrat masqrading as a "TP" candidate making some inflaming statements that will only inflame the DUmmies who aren't going to vote "TP" anyway.

It's the independent he's trying to turn against the TP and GOP and among the low-information voter types he may yet succeed.
Still, the DUmbasses can't even hold a consistent angle on the entire ruse.

Golly, DU will scramble to be supporting the so-called racist now:

The 'volunteer' that claimed to have been assaulted by jack davis is....
in fact Corwin's Chief of Staff. LOL! What a big surprise.
WGRZ who were at the incident trying to find out why Davis pulled out of the debate at the station set for this morning.
BUFFALO, NY -- 2 On Your Side has learned the man who released video showing himself in an altercation with Tea Party Candidate Jack Davis is actually Republican Candidate Jane Corwin's chief of staff in the Assembly.
Michael Mallia and an unknown female were both shooting video when the incident happened.
Erie County Republican Chairman Nick Langworthy would only admit that the "volunteer" worked for Corwin.
This is so funny to me for some reason. I had posted about this 'assault' this morning as did another poster. It sounded kind of fishy to me. And now that we know the 'volunteer' was actually a member of Corwin's staff.... It seems even more suspicious. Of course Corwin will know nothing of any misdeeds and the Chief of Staff may leave the campaign at best... but it sure is making for an interesting election here in WNY. More interesting than I had thought possible. And I hope this makes it even worse for Corwin.

Of course, I'm curious to know why democrat racist posing as a TEA Partier is allowed to physically assault someone just because they are the CoS for the opposition or why the opposition should lose because they asked a question and were assaulted.
But hey, democrats love racism and smearing innocent people and that is what really matters here.

Have they figured out yet they were beating the drum for the "Tea Party Candidate" back in '06?
