McConnell bats down slave-owner heritage reveal with Obama comparison

Washington Examiner:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell drew a comparison to President Barack Obama when asked about a news story revealing his ancestors owned slaves.

“I find myself once again in the same position as President Obama,” the Kentucky Republican said, who likes to make an occasional comparison with the former Democratic president. “We both oppose reparations and we both are the descendants of slaveholders.” more

  1. I have no great love for the Turtle, but I was always under the impression that one of the tenants of our country’s founding was that the son is not responsible for the sins of the father.

  3. I’m sick and tired of this slave shit. Slaves are still owned the world over, but not in America. America was the first country in history to free slaves. And they were freed by Republicans like President Lincoln and followed up by Republican President Eisenhower. Liberal whites have convinced ignorant Negros that Republicans are racist. That’s a fact. Negroes believe that Republicans are racists because that is what they are told by the liberal media. Nothing will change until the American people are told the truth.
    The Ku Klux Klan was a democrat organization.
    The KKK lynched “an estimated 3.446 black and 1207 white Republicans between 1882 and 1968.”
    George Wallace, Bull Conner, Robert Byrd,were Negro hating scumbags, as was LBJ.
    What the fuck is the matter with these people?
    I can’ take it anymore..
    You fucking Negros are assholes
