Some peasants are more equal than others

Rep. Peter King of New York on Southern congressmen:

"... they are typical of the South - a union-hating, ignorant, hillbilly, revival-meeting attending bunch that represents everything un-American."

Rep. Douglas Bruce, on legislation to allow more illegal alien invaders into Colorado:

"I would like to have the opportunity to state at the microphone why I don't think we need 5,000 more illiterate peasants in Colorado."

One of these elected officials was booted from the podium for his remarks. The other was met by laughter. Can you guess which is which?

Obviously, Rep. King has never read Rebellion, which I find to be an oasis in the midst of an intellectually arid world.

michael hill,

I was thinking about offering a prize to whoever came up with the right answer. Maybe a "wifebeater" tee shirt with "I'm an arrogant New Yorker" printed on the front?

I am considering sending Rep King one of my favorite bumper stickers:

"YANKEES--THE ORIGINAL ILLEGAL ALIENS"

pawmetto,

You're right. And I bet Richard Petty ain't too happy with the PC veneer NASCAR wears these days.

Ha! I'd love to see his response -- though we probably couldnt print it here --

And don't forget that they were the first foreign terrorists, too (Think: Sherman in Atlanta).
