Agreed a stupid thing to say. But why do we only seem to pay attention when republicans say stupid sh*t? How about when just recently Alabama House of Representatives, Alvin Holmes (D), explained why he so dislikes Clarence Thomas: because "he’s married to a white woman." Bet you haven’t even heard about that.

And "Americans Against The Tea Party." What exactly are they against? Asinine website if I ever saw one.

Well, it's probably because when it comes to dumb things to say in this regard, the GOP wins by a landslide. Politicians talk so much they are bound to say something dumb. It seems like a lot of these types of remarks, both the OP and the example you cite, are statements made to pander to a base.

My guess is a (D) from Alabama is a holdover from the days of the yellow dog southern democrat... which we now call the GOP.
