Democratic Representative Yells Racial Slur

Rep. Sheryl Williams Stapleton
Yesterday “Corrupt” N.M. State Representative and Majority House Whip Sheryl Williams Stapleton (D) openly accused another house member of “carrying the Mexican’s water.” She was referring to the current Republican Hispanic Governor Susana Martinez who I would consider a “Nikki Haley” of New Mexico. So there has been no word of ethics hearings but Republicans are asking for the Majority House Whip to step down (good luck with that). The Daily Caller and Capitol Report New Mexico reported the incident:
During a break in Wednesday’s Legislative Education Study Committee, Rep. Sheryl Williams Stapleton (D-Albuquerque) angrily confronted Rep. Nora Espinoza (R-Roswell), shouting “Don’t mess with me” and accusing Espinoza of “carrying the Mexican’s water on the fourth floor,” referring to Gov. Susana Martinez. “I’m pissed,” Stapleton said as she confronted Espinoza during a lunch break at the committee meeting, “I’ve been waiting for you.” Espinoza got a few words in before Stapleton said, “You said I’m corrupt. Prove it!”
We all know this behavior would never be tolerated from the Republicans but this will probably be swept under the rug since Stapleton said she didn’t mean it. Don’t worry though because the N.M. DNC is really going to come down hard on her. Javier Gonzales, “Corrupt” Chairman of the Democratic Party of New Mexico had this to say to Capital Report New Mexico:
Using race like this is never right under any circumstances. The comment is regrettable, and I hope the Representative refrains from using it in the future.”
Stapleton is a Democrat and they have controlled the house in N.M. for thirty years and the state elections for 80 years. The fact remains, the Governor of New Mexico is a Hispanic Republican who was endorsed by Sarah Palin in the 2010 elections and that does not sit well with the Dems in New Mexico.

Is Mexican a slur? It seems to be a lie in that Governor Martinez is an American, but why is it a slur?
Black Sabbath commented:
We see the Left doing this more and more – especially the rapid rise in anti-Semitism. This is because every time the Left do this, we all wring our hands and moan about the double standard instead of getting in their faces and their supporters’ faces and demanding they step down.
To that end, I think the blogs are doing the heavy lifting again. God knows our Republican leadership haven’t been seen since winning Congress last year.
lonestar commented:
Matt, How about this – She’s carrying the water for the black on the fourth floor. I’ll bet you think it’s a slur now!

Matt I agree with you. Ms. Stapleton is just carryiing the water for Obama’s black posse. After all Ms. Stapleton is black, isn’t she?

Europeans would have done well to leave the slave trade to the world’s experts in slave trading, the Muslims.
Had Europeans done that, we in America would have picked our own cotton and been better off for doing so.

I love our new governor and of course am very ashamed of our entitlement state and hope that things change. Apparently not so much yet…

LaDonna In Las Cruces commented:
Ugh – I have lived in this state most of my life. The north is as different from the south (having lived in both places). If only people would wake up. We are such an entitlement state. I pray Susana can change that. Am I holding my breathe? Nope, but I am praying – a lot…
Patty commented:
Carrying Mexican Water is this like being pimp for Mexicans. Listen, insults like this doesn’t gain anything but a good spanking or a time out for a kid.
But when politician says it, they just apologizes and it seems that is what the democrats do. Time after time they apologize and that is the end of it.
So, for those who are taken note on this topic, I suggest that if a Republican says it, then they too apologize.
But now, how I really feel. Fired her sorry b##t. Seems to me of late that most of the nastiest things are being said by Democrats and Black ones at that. Of all the people to talk like this, who fought against decriminalization and racial slurs they are the dumbest and this just proves it. Want are they doing, what is it that has given the blacks the right to insult others like this. Sorry but when a president who is black can insult time after time America and the Congress so much, it has to rub off some where.

BlackSabbath: Agreed, this Anti-Semitism is disgusting.
And when did it become okay for them to use racial slurs?
Patty commented:
Blacks have had their freedom for years now. Shameful how they were treated years ago. Slaves. Then they were free and then they became equal and that was a great thing.
But when did it become okay for them to be free to insult others with racial slurs towards others. It seems to be a trend for the some blacks these days. Comedians especially get by with getting their hate out for other colors. And for some it is their true feelings. It is hidden behind the laughs.
But it this case with a Politician that is the last straw. Actually, this is hitting rock bottom. And she should be fire or resign because this can’t be tolerated anymore. We do and we become less.

racism is rampant no matter what political party you affiliate with…. I’m not sure why this is REPUBLICAN or CONSERVATIVE news unless the only reason to publish this would be to smear a political party as you think it is representative of them as a whole??? In addition the tit for tat racial comments in this blog are disheartening. Am I to assume that while democrats remark about Mexicans (atleast this one particular one), that republicans spew slurs against blacks as I see “monkey” comparisons and mention of Obama (who is black, and is in no way affiliated with this particular “news” item other than “guilt by association…..race ????).
This blog is chock full right wing propaganda fluff pieces.
report on news……and items that MATTER in today’s society….talk about the struggling economic market, struggling to feed your family when mass layoffs present themselves to hard working Americans. DISCUSS THE REPUBLICAN AGENDA AND PLAN TO BOOST THE ECONOMY AND restore America….
enough with the divisive smear campaigns and BS non-news.

Patty commented:
Look “Seriously”
We are still free to speak our minds, last I checked. And no matter the politician or the person in general, slurs are disgusting and have no place in public. What you say at home is private but still it is wrong all the same.
We treat anyone with kid gloves like you. Some may not comment and some may not read what you have said at all.
I did, thank God I did. You seem to be referring to me especially, so allow me to clear things up for you. This is not a subject I feel good about but all the same it is time for the racially motivated and racist comments to stop but it is impossible for those who have been brought up in a less than perfect home. Seems trash has a tendency to drop itself anywhere. When it does it is ugly and what was said is about as ugly as it gets.
This may be small news and yes, people are hungry, lost homes, vets coming home with hands and legs shot off, it is a big world and big news travels fast. National Debt 15 trillion, Cartels and terrorism on the borders. Holder should be held accountable for the killing of Terry Brian, list is extensive. But some of the smaller things, as you put it, seems to grab my attention and a public person who represents the people is very important and if in that job they don’t disrespect others and they get away with insults, that is the business of the public who has elected them. Just like what Obama has done to America. Wrong is wrong and we here have had our fill of it. It comes in policies and it comes in words.
I doubt if she used these words when running for office, she may not have won. I am tired of this: Maxine Waters to tea party: Go to Hell or this: NAACP: Never called tea party ‘racist There is a pattern and then this: Obama has said the Cambridge officers “acted stupidly” these comments are coming from representatives, black organization and a sitting president.
So, to end my comments. LITTLE, TRIVIAL, ARE YOU SERIOUS?
wanumba commented:
It’s not an aberration. Right next door, the Democrats omit no slur in their campaign to smear Arizona (R) Governor Jan Brewer. They are now on a roll denigrating that Brewer has ONLY a GED, instead of a fancy private school pedigree and are openly threatening recall against her… part of a scorched earth Democrat assault on the state GOP control.
They were all “gushes” for former DEMOCRAT Gov Janet Napolitano who QUIT as AZ GOV, leaving it in horrible fiscal condition, to the point of bankruptcy, but who was “smartest woman in AZ.” Let the NATION be the judge of THAT.

THat’s a favorite dodge to try to diminish the travesty of the Democrat Party but asserting “everyone does it.” That’s HALF true, the rest is LIE.
It doesn’t count as racism out of Republicans if DEMOCRATS made those accusations out of whole cloth. Everyone one of your whinges originated as smears cooked up by Liberals against Republicans.
I’m sitting in Africa reading your drivel. The DEMOCRATS are the ones with racist hang-ups.. they are the party that tried to keep slavery, in fact and de facto by oppressive laws and voting tricks.
THis New Mexico politician, once she opened her mouth, would be quickly shunned in AFrica for her hard core Liberal LEft socilaistic and anti-family, anti-children bigotry and her outright rudeness. Africans are CLASSY here, with SUPERB manners, pro-life, pro-defense and pro-business, very hard working and responsible to their families.
She would make a fool of herself ASSUMING she was all “sister/bother” based on her skin color, bungling that on her racist mind-set.
Most everyone in Africa is black, so then culture, language ,tribe are what define loyalities and associations, NOT skin color.
It would be well worth for everyone to see with their own eyes how dramatic the contrast is – and how much bunk we’ve been fed – to set an African francophone high school student up against Rep. Stapelton and see how poorly Stapelton compares against that student: a younghigh schooler who started school with TWO languages, added TWO MORE and is working at the pre-calculus/physics/chemistry level in NINTH grade.
But Rep Stapelton’s free choice of political party insists Blacks aren’t capable of such rigorous educational demands, and shuts down, shouts down and smears anyone who tries to mess with the Democrat staus quo that keeps kids uneducated and sullen.

Stapleton is a first rate symbol of cultural decay. You go girl!

just some comparative shopping that’s all. what flies and what doesn’t….i would guess an equal statement by a rep would require 24/7 coverage accompanied by the usual hysterics. we remember this….

Just more of the open unhidden racism that permeates the left today.
Black hispanic tensions are high and they separate them in prisons due to the violence that would happen if not.

blah blah blah…old news. is any standing democrat right now, currently pushing the issue of slavery as a political platform??? If you can show me that in black and white, then perhaps your OLD and antiquated argument would have some weight to it.
Might it surprise you that I am NOT a registered Democrat? Nor, do I vote that way? yeah, it is articles like this that make us look bad as a party…… It is blanketed statements about a groups of people that label us as bigots and narrow minded.
Someone as they bashed me backhandedly, said in summary that it is freedom of speech to spout off drivel as truth…. Super. it’s what makes the world go around that we have varying opinions. But it certainly does not look intelligent to smear others, just to make another look bad, and to build yourself up. Look good on YOUR merit, NOT on the shortcomings of others.

obama called his grandmother a typical white person, can we call this a typical no class black person.
Patty commented:
In the last few weeks, leading Democrats in Congress have called Tea Party constituents terrorists, said they should go to hell and accused them of wanting to lynch black people. Last weekend, at an event attended by President Obama, the head of the Teamsters Union, Jimmy Hoffa Jr., attacked the Tea Party, screaming, “President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march. Let’s take these son of bitches (Tea Party members) out and give America back to an America where we belong.” (Note: the president was not on the platform when Hoffa spoke.)
The above are comments made by Democrats, Waters, Pelosi, Hoffa and others. Now, this by another person who represents the people. And for the blacks to say things like this only proves that they believe they can get away with this for what reason…Ummmmm! is it uneducated, it is because they really think the can get away with this. Ummm! wonder why?
And then there is this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XwZK3vDygk HERE IS A MAN AND HE HAPPENS TO BE BLACK. He is so far above Ms. Stapleton and world’s apart from our divider in chief.
And, Seriously, I could care less what party you are affiliated with. Hope it isn’t my party because this is the problem…I have wasted too much time rebutting you and that it exactly what Washington has been doing. Partisanship has never been worse since Obama came into office. Nothing is getting done that will help Americans. And some of his statement are cruel and unusual punishment towards America.

Another democrat. Don’t they realize that their comments will be out there forever.
And this is the party that cares so much. Isn’t it amazing, they believe they can get by with this with no reactions from others. Shameful

The entire racist construct to keep ‘em in the gutter is summed up in one corrosive concept fabricated by the Democrat union so-called education establishment: EBONICS.
The Democrats made sure that a swath of AMerican blacks can’t even speak ENGLISH properly, while their African counterparts start bi-lingual and add more languages as they get older.
AFter YEARS WASTED of being in the clutches of Democrat-controlled schools, neighborhoods, cities, unprepared blacks ask for hand-outs from the Democrat Party, which will give them things, provided they do some jobs in return: vote DEM.
That’s not living a free life in any measure. But the Democrats guard their turf like pit bulls when Republicans even suggest charter schools, school vouchers, even second amendment rights for Blacks.
By the way, why pretend slavery is an antiquated concept? SLavery was publically outlawed in Mauritania in 1981, but the last open slave sale was in 1984. The trade is underground now. About half the country of Mauritania are slaves today. We had to work with the chief budget officer of a major national parastatal and turned out the guy was a slave of one of the government ministers. Quite the gimmick to waste evryone’s time thinking the guy was independently able to make decisions.
SLavery is not an extinct institution. It ought to be, but several million people world-wide are indeed slaves, in absolute status and openly named that way, today.

Matt #1 – “Mexican” is a slur because it was meant to be a slur by the “person” saying it. Suppose someone said, “carrying water for the negro on the fourth floor”. Is that a slur? Sounds like it to me.
SERIOUSLY? commented:
Wanumba– while I acknowledge that slavery is still used throughout the world, I asked you to name a Democrat that supports this as you indicated in your original post saying democrats were supporters of slavery in the days of way back…… parties have progressed over the years. I’m pretty sure the republican party was initially against the woman’s suffrage movement, should I assume since they first were opposed to it, that they stand against it, or have they been the only party to have progressed with the times? just sayin. If you want to introduce an argument, stand by it and don’t veer to another whole plane of thinking with antiquated concepts for our particular country and political parties…… stick to specifics rather than blanketed ignorant stereotypical statements.
