Longtime readers of this blog will be quite familiar with race-baiting Democrat Rep. Diane Watson of California.
She attacked Ward Connerly for marrying a white woman.
She bragged about Washington, D.C. being a “chocolate city.”
She polluted the Hurricane Katrina aftermath with race card-playing nonsense.
Thanks to KABC, there’s audio of Watson heaping praise on Castro, Guevara, and the Cuban health system at her town hall meeting last night — as well as injecting her usual racial poison into the health care debate. (For a reminder of what Cuban health care is really like, click here.)
(see link)
I wrote up a transcript of her remarks. Bring an airsickness bag before reading:
WATSON: You might have heard their philosophical leader. I think his name is Rush Limbaugh. And he said early on, “I hope that he fails.”
Do you know what that means? If the president, your commander-in-chief, fails, America fails.
Now, when a senator says that this will be his Waterloo, and we all know what happened at Waterloo, then we have him and he fails. Do we want a failed state called the United States?
And remember: They are spreading fear and they are trying to see that the first president that looks likes me fails.
Now just understand what’s at the bottom line.
And you know we just got, 48 hours ago, we just go back, we were in Beijing, China, Hong Kong, China, we were in Taiwan, we were in Guam, we were all over the Far East.
I just want you to know: People look at the United States as a country that has changed its way and has elected someone from Kenya and Kansas, I’ll put it like that.
And they’re saying, “We thought you would never do that.”
So we don’t want to have this young man, and he just turned 48 — we want him to succeed, because when he succeeds, we regain our status. We regain our status.
It was just mentioned to me by our esteemed speaker, “Did anyone say anything about the Cuban health system?”
And lemme tell ya, before you say “Oh, it’s a commu–”, you need to go down there and see what Fidel Castro put in place. And I want you to know, now, you can think whatever you want to about Fidel Castro, but he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met. [APPLAUSE]
And you know, the Cuban revolution that kicked out the wealthy, Che Guevara did that, and then, after they took over, they went out among the population to find someone who could lead this new nation, and they found…well, just leave it there (laughs), an attorney by the name of Fidel Castro…
It needs knocked completely down and put back by our constitution with term limits imposed, the profession of politician erased from the books and a test on US History and basic economics an IQ of at least 110.
We regain our status as what, consummate fools?
I don’t know who her constituency is, but I do believe that many of our recent immigrants from the south are, by training and culture, communist in their politics.
I support Cuba taking over the healthcare system of the entire US Congress!
And with each heart bypass, Fidel can give em each a free rice cooker, too.
Just go and don’t come back!
She may have citizenship...but she is not an American.....
It is the only way we will ever have a shadows chance of true representation - of goverment OF the people
these people would cheer if the USA became Zimbabwe tomorrow
Racism and class envy really are forms of mental illness
God Help us.
Absolutely. Gimme, gimme and gimme some mo’.
That is the mistake the framers made giving a green light to the likes of Kennedy and Dodd.
What is it with these negros; just getting even?
I digress, it is all about the pity party.
Have they thought through that when a kkk dictator
usurps 0’s authoritarian state; that they won’t all
be lynched from the same short rope?
Conservatives consider blacks as just another human.
Fascists see them and whites as slaves of the state.
Ironically, back into bondage by 1/2 of their own.
I suggest she move to Cuba and leave the US the hell alone.
I’ll front some $$$ for a one-way ticket to Cuba for her, anyone else wanna donate?
Why yes, you lefties do.
In 2006, the National Journal ranked Watson as the most liberal member of Congress.
Nuff said.
No, we are trying to see that the first president that THINKS likes you fails.
We had the guy, currently in the White House, pegged as a marxist and a racist from the start - just like you Ms. Watson ...
[The LORD said}:
2 Chronicles 7:13-14 If I shut up heaven that there be no rain, or if I command the locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among my people; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
LORD, we deserve the locusts and pestilence that you have sent upon the land -- but we humbly thee beseech for thy tender mercies and that you forgive our sins and heal our land...

The only thing dumber than Diane Watson is the people in her district who voted for her. Can America survive this level of stupidity?
Just wondering are they really that stupid? Or are they aware and afraid to call a Commie a Commie.
