Palin is a Racist Moose Hunter, Watch Out Jews

Somehow Congressman Hastings from the great state of Florida has gotten the idea that women from Alaska who carry guns and shoot at moose are also apt to do something to Jews and Blacks in this country. At least that is what he recently told a group in Florida. He was speaking about Governor Palin giving his opinion of her ability to be vice presidential material.

He came across sounding like an idiot. How could anyone correlate the scenario he has proposed. I would think it is safe to say and correct me if I am wrong, NRA, but most hunters do not shoot at people. They shoot for the sport of killing game and that is not human life. They also are not racists to boot because they are hunters, carrying a gun and going after moose. This stereotype that the Congressman has conjured up is insulting to the vast majority of the American public and her ancestry. Has he forgotten how we came to to this land, how we fed ourselves and protected ourselves. This is the foundation of America to be gun-toting and killing moose.

Additionally, we started this country, if you can remember Congressman Hasting, as a melting pot, with all different types of people from the world. People of European descent to include Jewish lineage and the African people who were taken into slavery and later freed to become African Americans. I hardly thought I would give a history lesson over a silly old moose, but Congressman you are far removed from the American people and deeply afraid Obama is going to lose.
