Colorado is about one "comprehensive migrant plan" away from becoming a third-world state.
Good luck to 'em all, because people like Curry are going to run that state straight into the ground.
And yet I personally find nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade either....
The papers and TV stations quote the vacuous dhimmicrat female expressing outrage over Bruce (he is an ass, but not often wrong) . The talk show call ins are saying, “...what did he say that was incorrect?”
And one wonders why the MSM is collapsing.
I just love watching libs getting completely pissed off by a statement that is factually correct.
Political speech in government proceedings is the most protected speech we have. If that goes away....then I dunno.
Everyone knows most of these lettuce pickers are college educated.
Which word is bigoted? Illeterate or Peasants?
Have these legislators never heard of the First Amendment? The First Amendment right to free speech was first and foremost intended to protect political speech, which this obviously was. Why isn’t Rep. Bruce hauling Rep. Curry into federal court?
That said, Bruce really ought to refrain from things like kicking photogrpahers for taking his photo. That little snippet of his history will make it a lot harder for him to get justice in connection with this egregious infringement of his First Amendment rights.
Yes, but this guy is a maniac. He has a long history of “acting out.” Some people there are sick of this man’s antics.
Even though he is right on some issues, kicking people and rejecting resolutions praising veterans is ridiculous.
He got into trouble for being a slum lord, in the past, and has many other brushes like this.
Loose cannon, IMO.

The only claim to offense these people have is the politically correct climate they set up.
If they would figure out what the words meant and understand them (instead of dressing them up) they would recognize that some words are exactly what they mean.
Seems like Bruce nailed it, and the legislature hates the truth.
Yes, he should have been booted off for not including “and a tremendous financial burden on taxpayers”.
Legislators should be free to say what they want as a general principle. Further, anyone getting worked up over this as “racism” is drunk with political correctness. He shouldn’t point out the state may not want to attract uneducated poor people from another country? We seem to be falling behind in science, engineering and patents. It’s logical to seek skilled folks who are in high demand.
1. He’s Republican. Republicans are impaled, roasted, drawn and quartered for innocent words.
What if he had said “people who work the fields, who have had not had the benefit of much formal education” Would they have gotten him for that?
The country is now in a situation where a conservative who says, or doesn’t say, or is said to have said, anything about any member of a protected group will be attacked and silenced.
Definition - A peasant is an agricultural worker who subsists by working a small plot of ground. The word is derived from 15th centrury French païsant meaning one from the pays, or countryside. The term peasant today is sometimes used in a pejorative sense for impoverished farmers.
When will we have a constitutional amendment listing words one must not ever say? The list is getting longer.
Of course some us can be called anything you wish to call us - no problem.
Too many Californians moving to Colorado and converting it to their ways.
People need to be more niggardly in their use of words that others don’t understand and take offense to because they don’t know the definition of the word.
Then, they sure wouldn't like me. I call them "Criminal Trespassers."
Are they illiterate? Are they peasants? Yes or no. Neither word is derogatory. We need to clearly see the situation as it is and not go through life with a bag over our heads.
Douglas Bruce for President 2012!!
Political correctness is a liberal belief, supported by the media, that one can pick up a turd by the clean end.
There is much danger in political correctness. I hope this guy sticks to his guns and takes this bitch to task over here own prejudice.
Illegal immigrants are mostly illiterate peasants.
50% of the adult male work force in Los Angles cannot read or write functional English.
Any questions lady?
Cheeze whiz what a bunch of itiots we have representing our nation’s citizens at about every level.
Ping!
No room foir ethical breaches, but plenty of room for criminal aliens asking for handouts in a sanctuary city
Telling the truth will always get you in trouble with liberals especilly of the MSM sort.
Left-wingers call conservatives worse things than that on a daily basis.
Look at Obama and Hillary.
Maybe Bruce should be running for President.
the people keep electing them...
His comments are deplorable and uninformed.
Everyone knows they are highly educated doctors, architects and engineers.
The medal of honesty would be in order.
