Republicans join Democrats to condemn Tony Hinchliffe for his comments at the New York event.

…US congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar said she was “disgusted” by the “racist comment”. She said it did not "reflect the GOP values""…

You sure about that Maria?

    Yeah, when your party’s candidate for president, a former president, has this group of fascists on stage with him, and doesn’t make a peep about it, it most definitely reflects GOP values.

      If nine people are sitting at a table, and a Nazi sits down with them, and nobody gets up, there are now 10 Nazis at that table.

        In this case, it’s more appropriately “If hundreds of Nazis organize a Nazi rally to support a Nazi candidate, everyone who chooses to attend is a Nazi. Those who choose to pee in a bottle while waiting in line are double-Nazi.”

          Using the transitive property of Naziism, you are correct!

          And any decent New Yorker knows you just piss right on the sidewalk. That’s what it’s there for!

              That’s just what we call any water that is not the amazing New York City tap water— the champagne of municipal water.

              Edit: for those unaware, NYC tap water comes from a spring in the Adirondacks and Catskill mountains via a giant aqueduct. It’s the most delicious water in the world, right out of your faucet.
