Black congresswoman says opposition trying to destroy president ‘who looks like me’…
“They are spreading fear and they’re trying to see that the first president who looks like me — fails.”
“People look at the United States as a country that has changed it’s way and elected someone from Kenya and Kansas, I’ll put it like that.”
BR> KABC’s Michael Linder was the only broadcast reporter at Thursday night’s town hall health care debate at Wade AME Church when Rep. Diane Watson [D] made some astonishing comments including claims that those opposed to health care reform are attempting to destroy a president “who looks like me.”
Later, Watson praised heath care in Fidel Castro’s Cuba — and, it seemed, the Cuban revolution itself.
The statements aired exclusively Thursday night on KABC’s The John Phillips Show.

I’m sorry, Barbara, but those corporate whores are about as radical as butter on toast. If they were truly leftist liberal nuts, why are we still fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan? Why don’t have single-payer health care? Why are they bending over over the corporations?
The truth is, Democrats are moderate conservative dipshits, which isn’t conservative enough for you flat-earthers.
Great memorization of fringe talking points, Joe! When your ganglia becomes a full brain, it won’t be tube fed from some website anymore! Big boy!
letstakeitback,
instead of bringing logic to the table, you try to hurt my feelings, awww. You are capable of using a computer, which means that you *might* be able to participate in a discussion if you could stand to take Fox news’ penis out of your mouth for a few seconds. But probably not. Anyway, i’ll go ahead and drive a couple of nails in the coffin.
Cap.N.trade. Republican proposal.
Public option. Republican proposal.
This is utterly astonishing. When a black woman speaks against white citizens, itis not racism. What chtzpah this woman has. Diane Black, we are not anti-black. we are against corruption by radicals like Van Jones, Rahm Emanuel, Mark Lloyd,etc. We will not let this country be run by these left wing radical nuts.
