It takes an "arrogant nigger" to marry the Speaker's daughter.

I would like to take this opportunity to inform my friends reading this post that republicans do not have a monopoly on ignorance and racism.

Field's Exhibit A is my friend Gloria Patko. Gloria didn't get the memo that she is not one of us "dark skinned" people, and therefore does not have the right to call us certain names here in America.

 "Buena Vista Township Clerk Gloria Platko is resisting demands that she step down after another local official, Interim Township Manager Dexter Mitchell (a Democrat), taped a phone conversation in which Platko referred to Township Supervisor Dwayne Parker (also a Democrat) as “an arrogant nigger.”

The 63 year-old Democrat later apologized for the “slip of the tongue,” but shockingly insisted that her use of the slur doesn’t make her racist, because she has “eaten Thanksgiving dinner with black friends at their house.”


Mitchell said he recorded the call in January without Platko’s knowledge because he didn’t want her to twist his words. About six minutes into the recording, Mitchell asks, “Would you be willing to sit down with (Parker)?”

Platko told Mitchell that Parker is “just rubbing me the wrong way.
“He is just doing whatever he can. You know what I think of Mr. Parker right now, and I know you’re not even going to like this,” Platko said in the recording. “But he’s just an arrogant (N-word). And I’m sorry to say it that way, but that’s the way I feel.” [Source]

Ms. Platko, did they serve you turkey or chicken?

I bet John Boehner would never call a "dark skinned" person an "arrogant Nigger". No matter how much that Obama fellow pisses him off he would never say that. (Publicly.)

He really wouldn't say it now that he is about to get a "dark skinned" son in law.
Not only is he of the darker persuasion, but, to my pleasant surprise, he also happens to be a fellow yawdie.

Of course the press is getting on my man because he was allegedly arrested for smoking the good collie.

"They're going to the chapel and they’re ganja get married.

The fiancé of House Speaker John Boehner’s daughter was once busted for pot possession, a new report said Wednesday.

Lindsay Boehner, 35, is engaged to Jamaica-born Dominic Lakhan, who was arrested in 2006 in Florida after a police officer pulled him over for a traffic violation, the National Enquirer reported.

A cop in Pembroke Pines, Fla., found 4 grams of cannabis in his ashtray.

Pot wasn’t the only illicit substance allegedly in the car. Cops also “observed in plain view a 16 oz. Natural Light beer can opened in the driver door,” the Enquirer said, citing a police report.

“Officer also detected the odor of burnt cannabis emitting from the interior of the vehicle,” according to the police report." [Source]

 

Save the ganja jokes. The American press is so predictable. Lindsey has found her soul-mate, leave her alone. Honestly, I can't say that I blame her; Jamaica is a small place in land size only.

 

I wonder if Gloria Platko has ever been to Jamaica?
