Very sorry she got caught:
Democratic Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez says she didn’t intend to offend anyone when she told a reporter that “the Vietnamese” and Republicans were trying to take her seat representing California’s Orange County.
Sanchez said Friday she “used a poor choice of words that some people have taken as offensive” in a Spanish-language interview with Jorge Ramos on Univision’s Sunday morning show, “Al Punto.” She said she apologizes if she offended anyone…
Uh, Ms. Sanchez, we didn’t “take” them as offensive – they were offensive. We’re angry that you gave offense – that you essentially called on people of one ethnic group to do battle against members of another. We’re also sick to death of the racial politics from your side of the aisle.
But what can we expect? They don’t have ideas. They don’t have a sense of honor. All they have is a sense of entitlement – they deserve power because they are such wonderful people who believe all the right things and who kowtow to all the right groups. When caught out, they simply don’t understand what happened – after all, Ms. Sanchez probably didn’t say anything her side hasn’t said a thousand times before…just a pity it was recorded and someone took the time to translate.
We do need an end to division in this nation. We are all Americans – but just as long as we have people like Ms. Sanchez in position of power and authority, so we’ll continue to have bitter, ethnic divides.
