"Did I mention that I was white?" . . . Please come CAPTION that wacky racist Steve King (R-IA)!!!




Steve (rebuked by Congress for racist remarks) King is saying: “And, when I have to step down to the floor of the House of Representatives, and look up at those 400-and-some accusers, you know we just passed through Easter and Christ's passion, and I have better insight into what He went through for us.”



********************************************************************

This faithful CAPTIONer took a vacation day and quoted King's actual blather, word for word, which can be found here at DU:

Sometimes there's no greater satire than the truth.

Christ, who came to save mankind, debating the Pharisees who hold his well being and even his life in their hands, is exactly like King, who came to defend his pattern of making blatantly racist comments, holding forth unchallenged on the floor of an almost empty House of Representative.

How do the Evangelicals view someone who willfully subscribes to the papist view?

Another college dropout.
