It's politically incorrect to say, and electorially (if that was even a word) damaging. But there is a lot of truth in that quote.
That's utter nonsense. It weakens the economy to have any able-bodied people dependent on government. The Dems are for increasing educational opportunities for marginalized populations and creating more opportunities for upward mobility. I can't believe people actually swallow without thinking, that ignorant, obviously partisan mud-slinging quote.
The term "people of color" was invented by people of color themselves. It has nothing to do with who is employed and who isn't.
He only said this because its true. Democrats do want blacks and hispanics to be dependent.
Gosh, OP, that's a given.
I don't know about that.
Its always the Dems who support programs like financial aid and encourage college.
Republicans don't ,so I think its fair to say Republicans want to keep minorities down.
You ironically confirm the point that Walsh was trying to make by using the racist term 'people of color.' As usually defined, 'people of color' divides the world into 'white' and 'everything else.' Asians, blacks, Indians (both), Arabs, Samoans etc, all are classed as 'people of color.' Only whites get their own special category according to the lefty purveyors of the term 'people of color.'
The widespread adoption of this term by the left speaks volumes about the racist perspective thereof, and dovetails well with Rep. Walsh's point.
He mentioned two races of people so I said people of color.
FYI, I'm Hispanic, and you're not only gravely mistaken, but you're holding to an utterly delusional viewpoint based on the prevalent Republican magical thinking.
I strongly urge you do spend time doing some reading (history might be beneficial to you), and cease kneeling and genuflecting before the myriad of extremely low I.Q. Republican commentators whenever these spew their anal impactions.
You didn't say where I was mistaken. You just pulled out the dusty old thesaurus and proceeded to post.

I don't think she needed to direct you to your mistakes. She just gave you advice on how to not make the mistake again.
