Immigration Racism Super Stupid

Super Stupid

Holy crap. Another Republican didn’t get the outreach memo.

Rep. Don Young (R-AK) used an ethnic slur to describe Mexican farm workers in an interview with a local station KRBD on Thursday.

“My father had a ranch; we used to have 50-60 wetbacks to pick tomatoes,” he said while discussing economic trends of the last few decades. “It takes two people to pick the same tomatoes now. It’s all done by machine.”

Uh. Wetbacks? Really?
