Rep. Alcee Hastings told an audience of Jewish Democrats Wednesday that they should be wary of Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin because “anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks.”

“If Sarah Palin isn’t enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention,” Rep. Alcee Hastings of Florida said at a panel about the shared agenda of Jewish and African-American Democrats Wednesday. Hastings, who is African-American, was explaining what he intended to tell his Jewish constituents about the presidential race. “Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through,” Hastings added as the room erupted in laughter and applause.

After telling attendees that the most important thing Jewish and African-American Democrats could do to support one another was to get Sen. Barack Obama elected president, Hastings had one more message: “For those of you like me that supported Sen. Hillary Clinton, she lost! Get over it!”

I can only say that I am so glad that Obama's supporters are not playing the race card.  :hammer:

So Moose and Jews are equivalent? Or worse, Jews are LESS THAN Moose.

That is what the Hastings said.  Antisemitic bitch.

...and then the nice Jewish couple went home.  As he locked the door, his wife asked if he had laughed at that stupid joke about moose and jews.  He shrugged.  "Oh, yeah, you know...  Just being polite.  But if we had been the ones with the guns, we'd still have a nice place in Berlin."

Those who see their lives as spoiled and wasted crave equality and fraternity more than they do freedom. If they clamor for freedom, it is but freedom to establish equality and uniformity. The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of the many which make up a tunic; one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.

Short version of Hastings comment: "Don't vote for whitey."

Alcee Hastings, Mr. Integrity.  If they went to hear that thieving dirtbag speak, I hope they left their cash, watches and rings at home.  If he told you it was daylight, you should go outside and check.

It is a shame that this race baiting Negro's conviction case was overturned. This sleaze bag belongs in jail.

hell, that would make a great sound bite . . . in a mccain commercial. :whatever: 

why are the dems running out a former federal judge that was impeached and removed from office for corruption and perjury?
