Showing Original Post only (View all)Translating Paul Ryan's Remarks Into Plain English. [View all]
Paul Ryan: "We have got this tailspin of culture, in our inner cities in particular, of men not working and just generations of men not even thinking about working or learning the value and the culture of work, and so there is a real culture problem here that has to be dealt with"
TRANSLATION: "I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro. They didnt have nothing to do. They didnt have nothing for their kids to do. They didnt have nothing for their young girls to do. And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do? They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And Ive often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didnt get no more freedom. They got less freedom."
Forget GOOGLE TRANSLATOR. Use the BUNDY TRANSLATION App. It's not sophisticated enough to translate things through the obfuscation filter of members of the chattering class, like George Will, Newt Gingrich or Rush Limbaugh. It just repeats what it hears in plain english.
The SUIT may be different, but what's underneath it is the same old dog-whistle racism.

Thank goodness for the BUNDY TRANSLATOR. It's not sophisticated enough to obfuscate.

FOAD is their only solution. See where they would want to install a state Death Panel:
