So, generally speaking, she feels all ethnic groups are poor workers in one way or another. Gee, it's a wonder anything gets done in this country. Maybe she would like to offer a critique of the current administration while she's at it. Time to hit the streets, Condi! Gonzo, you're lazy! And Bush, you only took the job so you wouldn't have to work in a factory.

Another great example of the quality of people that this President, surrounds himself with. Or should I say lack of!
Picture me flabbergasted, but not surprised.

She must be a "BUSH" Babe. She'll probably get the Armed services to send all the blacks & hispanics to Iraq to keep them out of the factories, and bring all the white boys home to sell drugs to their white uppper income friends. Oh, by the way I'm a white boy!
Lets see, "BUSH" boy Wolfowitz[sp] gets his leg spreader girl friend a "cushy" jobs and it also goes hand in hand with laying in cushions.Did I say hand & hand job?
And Sabre rattling, blood thristy, War mongering "BUSH" stands by his man with all the love he can give him,
OH sh*t thats a song!!!

Crazy, people may have any thoughts or feeling they like, no matter how bigoted; enacting them or giving them voice, especially in cases where the words will be widely disseminated, is another matter entirely
