From the Las Vegas Sun: A Nevada assemblyman said he would vote in favor of legislation allowing for slavery if it was something his constituents wanted him to do.
Jim Wheeler, a Republican from Gardnerville, was talking to a crowd of Storey County Republicans in August he when said “yeah I would” vote for slavery if that’s what his constituents wanted.
Wheeler said today that he believes “liberal” operatives are trying to frame him as a bigot by spreading video of the statement on the Internet.
Reached by phone this afternoon, Wheeler now says he would not in actuality vote for anything that would legalize human slavery. Rather, he claimed, he was exaggerating in order to make a point that representing the will of his constituents is important to him. “That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard if anyone could even fathom believing it,” he said. “I don’t care if every constituent in (Assembly) District 39 wanted slavery, I wouldn’t vote for it. That’s ridiculous.” http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2013/oct/28/state-senator-says-hed-vote-slavery-if-his-constit/
Of course it was Democrats who supported slavery and voted to deny voting rights to minorities.
And it is the Democrats who have enslaved millions right now to the government plantation by killing jobs and forcing (some willing, others not so willing) on government assistance.
And with over 90% of Blacks voting for Democrats, they are part of the liberal plantation.
And currently, with ObamaCare, millions of people are going to be kicked off their health insurance policies and forced to use more expensive, government endorsed health insurance policies. That's just another form of slavery.
So, before the Democrats go off half cocked, they need to remember their own history when it comes slavery.
