Friday, Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) backed up a Washington Post report claiming President Donald Trump referred to certain nations as “shithole countries” in a bipartisan meeting Trump held with members of Congress on immigration policy.

Durbin’s remarks were made to reporters and captured by MSNBC’s camera.

Durbin also criticized Trump for his use of the term “chain migration” because according to the Senate Minority Whip, it was offensive to African-Americans that “migrated” to the United States chains.

Isn't DICK Durbin telling us how 'African-Americans' feel some sort of cultural appropriation?

Indeed it is.

But then Durbin is a pathetic moronic extremist, so we shouldn't expect much from him.
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

LOL, Durbin citing past Democrat immigration policy.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Those who are transported in captivity can hardly be said to have "migrated". The term migrated implies going some place by choice, even if that choice is made to avoid poor circumstance where you start.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I resent you comparing pathetic, moronic extremists to Sen. Turban.  They are on a much higher plane of evolution than that dope.  :tongue2:
