Race-baiter Democrat Rep. Diane Watson praises Cuban health system, Castro & Guevara who “kicked out the wealthy”
Longtime readers of this blog will be quite familiar with race-baiting Democrat Rep. Diane Watson of California.
She attacked Ward Connerly for marrying a white woman.
She bragged about Washington, D.C. being a “chocolate city.”
She polluted the Hurricane Katrina aftermath with race card-playing nonsense.
Thanks to KABC, there’s audio of Watson heaping praise on Castro, Guevara, and the Cuban health system at her town hall meeting last night — as well as injecting her usual racial poison into the health care debate. (For a reminder of what Cuban health care is really like, click here.)
I wrote up a transcript of her remarks. Bring an airsickness bag before reading:
WATSON: You might have heard their philosophical leader. I think his name is Rush Limbaugh. And he said early on, “I hope that he fails.”
Do you know what that means? If the president, your commander-in-chief, fails, America fails.
Now, when a senator says that this will be his Waterloo, and we all know what happened at Waterloo, then we have him and he fails. Do we want a failed state called the United States?
And remember: They are spreading fear and they are trying to see that the first president that looks likes me fails.
Now just understand what’s at the bottom line.
And you know we just got, 48 hours ago, we just go back, we were in Beijing, China, Hong Kong, China, we were in Taiwan, we were in Guam, we were all over the Far East.
I just want you to know: People look at the United States as a country that has changed its way and has elected someone from Kenya and Kansas, I’ll put it like that.
And they’re saying, “We thought you would never do that.”
So we don’t want to have this young man, and he just turned 48 — we want him to succeed, because when he succeeds, we regain our status. We regain our status.
It was just mentioned to me by our esteemed speaker, “Did anyone say anything about the Cuban health system?”
And lemme tell ya, before you say “Oh, it’s a commu–”, you need to go down there and see what Fidel Castro put in place. And I want you to know, now, you can think whatever you want to about Fidel Castro, but he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met. [APPLAUSE]
And you know, the Cuban revolution that kicked out the wealthy, Che Guevara did that, and then, after they took over, they went out among the population to find someone who could lead this new nation, and they found…well, just leave it there (laughs), an attorney by the name of Fidel Castro…

world class moron
Castro and company did only one good thing – kick out the Mafia. The rest of their “legacy” speaks for itself. Ms Watson, you are one repugnant person!
lgm, honey-I think we’ve found your soulmate.
Wait I thought obama was from hawaii not kenya & kansas? So if he’s from kenya he needs to be arrested immediately. He isn’t natural born. Just saying…..
THIS…. is what people elect to a position of power? Despicable. World class communist sympathizer. I cannot wait for 2010.
Well yeah, we think he’s from Kenya.
Guam is not in the Far East. Guamanians are U.S. Citizens.
Have someone on your staff open a book before you speak.
And we don’t care about our “Status” with the world if it means we are going to become a Euro Sh##hole look alike.
I shudder to think that this cretin could actually have been elected to represent her district in the United States Congress. What a mockery of statesmanship.
She actually said this?
An elected member of our Congress said this?
The the audience applauded?
So someone tell me why she’s not being run out of town?????
Ha!
That dumb cow most likely believes it–just something about the Kalifornicators electing Diane Watson, Pelosi, Feinstein, Baba Boxer, the Moonbeam, Maxine Waters and the Governator. That once great state did give us the Great Ronald Reagan and only heart burn ever since. Earthquakes are our friends as are tsunamis and meteor strikes.
But it hard to believe a brain that small could move that large butt and mouth. Well Rush is over and Hannity is on. Kenya and Kansas-I bet that dumb cow spells them with a C
Sounds as if she’s advocating KILLING the wealthy in this country!
That woman is a witch.
I forget who said it originally, but this reminds me of the (loosely quoted) observation,
“Wherever there is a tyrant’s boot on the necks of an oppressed people, there’ll be a well-heeled liberal pointing out that they have free education and universal healthcare.”
Can she back that up? Because if she can, we can use her on the stand in proceedings to remove Obama from office.
What I find unbelievably hypocritical is the fact that she calls white people racists…. yet it’s exceedingly likely that the primary reason she voted for this guy was that he is black.
So tell me who the racist is?????
I can’t believe she’s not a blonde!
Fidel was a lawyer?! No wonder!
It’s really a shame that the idiots in Los Angeles keep sending this moron back to the House.
and one more thing.
This woman is an idiot and a fool. Her constituents must be proud.
It is more about being liberal than about skin color. Conservative blacks seem to be race traitors to the liberal blacks. BHO will be responsible for his own failures because he champions policies which can’t succeed. Socialism works until other people’s money runs out. He is violating every principle which makes this country strong, while he parties with his cronies on our dime.
It is not scary to me that people believe things like this. I mean after all some folks still think we didn’t go to the moon and 9/11 was an inside job. What is incredibly scary to me is there are enough people to vote for this person to keep her in office.
Folks who can drive a car, buy a gun, reproduce, vote for her.
Try to sleep knowing that!
First of all, Obama doesn’t look like you! He has much nicer pecs! Just ask Chris Matthews.
This is as good as Bluto’s monologue at the end of Animal House! She is on a roll! Oh, wait, you mean this isn’t a National Lampoon movie? Holy Cow!
Utter BS. I’d be amazed if 1 in 10 of her constituents had ever heard of Waterloo, and even fewer could explain what happened there. Napoleon? Is he a new rapper?
Nappy Rappy! Ooh!
What is with these black congress women?
Bravo Watson, I have once again been wowed by the depths a Representative’s ignorance. Stunningly stupid.
Yes, for most… whether black or white. But for a woman as blindly racist as Watson, I firmly believe skin color ranks higher than many other issues. And if in fact that is the case, it’s a very sad situation.
Race baiter? Isn’t Michelle Malkin appearing on Glenn Beck? She really has no business calling anyone a race baiter after enabling that piece of trash.
Dumb as a rock. Surely brighter than her.
I don’t think Obama looks like a black Mrs. Potato Head.
Oh my God RSS, Must you and LGM ALWAYS tow the party line? Can you HONESTLY say that you agree with the rhetoric this nutjob is spewing?
How do cretins like this woman get elected, even in California?
She makes Marion Barry look like Albert Einstein.
You’re twisted, IMHO.
If it was just her & Maxine Waters, no big deal. But unfortunately they are legion! Both houses have way too many, and we need to CLEAN HOUSES!
Nah–you’re thinking of NappyLion
Who calls it the far east anymore? What decade is she living in? This is what happens you can take them out of the ghetto but, you can’t take the ghetto out of them!
Here you have it folk’s. A black woman from CA. says he was born in Kenya.
I would be a racist if I called her a liar.
chapy can some make a citizen’s arrest on the pres ?
I find it fascinating that the left cannot refute anything that Glenn has talked about or shown on TV. Instead, as usual, the left makes PERSONAL attacks, because they cannot refute the facts. Actually, I guess it’s nice that they are so predictable.
DagneyT: You took the words right off of my fingers.
Either RSS is channeling Last Great Moron or Big O really has control over the weak minded. Either way it’s scary to think that people can be this ignorant, blind to the truth, and stupid.
This country deserves what it gets for allowing something that vile make decisions that affect us all.
I was listening to Glenn Beck before it was cool to be listening to Glenn Beck.
hoo-haa!
Double snort!!
Why is my state so full of dopes? Who, of sane mind would vote for an idiot like that?
Do these commie/socialists wannabe’s feel empowered because The One is president? Is his coronation all they needed to display their true colors so boldly?
Watson/Waters/Boxer/Feinstein/Waxman/Bass/Miller/Lofgren
My poor state…..
he definitely looks great as a chia pet…
http://www.chiaobama.com/
Hatred of Glen Beck by ultra-leftists like you just saw here is a sign that he is on the right track.
Think of these statements by Red State and other extremists as radar returns showing us we’re on target.
It takes one to know one, which means Rep. Watson is not qualified to judge. All she knows is that Fidel is infinitely brighter than she is (along with 99.9% of the world’s population.)
Unless her district is gerrymandered to include people with an IQ over 50 – there will be no change at all. Take that to the bank. Come to think of it … as long as the Dems refuse to require a photo ID to vote – can we at least have a requirement your IQ is at a minimum 3 digits?
Another deluded Marxist. Lgm would be proud. The election of someone like Watson just proves how uninformed, uneducated, and deluded her own constituents are.
It’s a sad day when you get more proof that this government and people like Watson are deliberately undermining not only our Constitution and political structure but way of life. Praising Castro and Guevera is like praising the likes of Lenin. There really is no difference, because all these men killed people who didn’t agree with them because they could. Because their power was supreme and anybody that got in their way was crushed.
This is the same outcome that Watson and I’m sure some black people in this country (and other malcontents)want for this country. Take everything from the rest of us so that we can all be made equally miserable. All I know is that if it can happen in Venezuela and other Latin American countries it can happen here.
That some people are determined to make us another failed socialist/marxist experiment is the must disturbing aspect of this.
You said that before; right after meeting a sea urchin.
Damn, I thought it was Barbara Streisand.
That would include taking out the Soros, Gates, Immelt, Buffet, Heinz, Huffington, Rangel, Jackson, and Kennedy families. Like most other things she says, I don’t think Diane Watson has thought this through very carefully.
Oh come on, lady. He’s nowhere near as ugly as you are!!
#
Based just on her remarks, apparently she’s not too clear on it either.
Thanks for reminding me! I had my TV off.
Are you one of Watson’s constituents? If not, c’mon, get on over to Californication and kiss that woman’s feet.
In all honesty, do you really think personal invective accomplishes anything except to make you look bad (which isn’t hard)? This from the same person who claims they never use name-calling AT ALL. Except when it’s convenient.
Have you ever watched Beck’s show or just get the run down and talking points criticizing him from liberal blogs? How is MM a race baiter? OMG, Beck had the stones to call out every one of these Obummer administration paid, marxist revolutionaries like Van Jones and yet, no, no he’s a productive, law-abiding (okay he has a record) American citizen. Except that Jones is demonizing democracy and capitalism and undermining both until he can put a way better anarchical one in its place. Very productive.
Is your world an upside down, one-way street or what? I’d say open your eyes but it’s hard with them perpetually closed and a pillow over your head to shut out any opposing thought.
At least somebody like Beck gives a crap. Can’t say the same for you. Good on ya, Comrade.
CASTRO led the communist revolutionin Cuba. Not Che. Che was his personal executioner after the revolution. This woman has no grasp of history.
She is not a usefull idiot, that would imply she has a use.
RSS, Malkin appearing on Becks show is racist?
HUH????
We should encourage the annexation of California by Mexico. At least the southern half.
BING
Michelle: who is the race baiter-you or Glenn Beck? I am so confused!
That’s a logical fallacy called “Begging the question”. They’re falsely conflating Obama failing with America failing. Our argument is that if Obama succeeds, his success will cause America to fail.
Funny, they weren’t saying that in 2006. I wonder what changed?
c’mon people! comedy gold!
If the president fails, Americas fails is very faulty logic. Did the left support Richard Nixon in Watergate to prevent him frim failing? Of course logic and consistency are not leftist traits. They’ll just support whatever gives them more power.
The answer is yes. I don’t think even red state bigot knows what the heck the question is.
“…he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met.”
Oh, yeah, that’s one heck of a recommendation from someone who’s dumber than a bag of hammers.
And it’s “dictator”, not “leader”.
mojo, when you kill off all the people smarter than you then by default you are the smartest.
Dad used to say that if you throw a rock at a pack of dogs, the one that yips is the one that got hit.
You first, Congresswoman, you first.
These people get more and more arrogant, with each passing day. There’s a revolution going on to Stalinize the country and useless idiots clap; well, as long as the government doesn’t disturb their music and celebrity worship, As far as Cuba goes, I think it’s the only place around where ’59 chevys are still in vogue. The citizens have been cowed into indifference and lethargy, which is what most politicians dream about. If it was such a great place, congresswoman, why isn’t there a crisis in overcrowding due to the influx of “illegals”? Khrushchev once said, “We will bury you”. I suspect people like Watson, et.al., would like to see that prophesy happen.
You know, I have to wonder – as she’s talking about Che and Fidel kicking out the wealthy, has it occurred to her that Fidel is a billionaire in maybe the poorest country in Latin America?
Only when he wears those mom jeans.
1/Castro led the revolution, not Che. They did not look for a “leader” and find Castro.
2/ Castro was wealthy and went to school to get a law degree but never was an attorney.
This woman is a clueless nutcase.
As far as I know, it’s also the only country where a ’57 Chevy is a boat.
That is a little hyperbole. Not much. Just a little. It would take more than her to make Mayor Barry look like the good professor…
I come to praise Watson, not condemn her.
If you listen to Watson and her ilk, you understand very clearly how they perceive Obama as ushering in a revolutionary government. The implications of that fact have certainly not sunk in on the Right nearly as far as they have on the Left, but that is hardly the Left’s fault. There is no doubt whatever that Obama is viewed by the Left as the real deal, a man destined to be the uber-Castro of America. And since the Left always assures us how much smarter and more perceptive etc. they are than everyone else, we need only take them for their word. Sure it’s racist for us to point that fact out, but his own supporters are saying it. It would also be racist to disagree!
While I think most people on this site have figured it out, plenty of the standard issue conservatives (e.g. National Review) are only beginning to dimly catch on. More’s the pity.
Yes folks, Obama’s is a revolutionary government and revolutionary governments, it should hardly need to be added, do not yield power at the ballot box.
It was said of Li’l Abner that he was strong as an ox and dumber than twelve of them. This woman is both physically and mentally weaker than Li’l Abner.
Keep it up lady and you’ll incite a revolution . . . then we’ll be exactly like Castro. Where do the Democrats find this pond scum?
“…he was one of the brightest leaders I have ever met.” Coming from one dim bulb.
“The Cuban revolution that kicked out the wealthy…” One of those kicked out was Cuba’s greatest musician, Ernesto Lecuona, composer of “Malaguena,” who died in exile three years later. Unforgivable.
When the president fails trying to turn the country into a fascist/socialist state, and this president will, America succeeds.
Gollee! There sure are a lot of racists in Congress. I thought by electing Zero it was a guarantee that playing the race card would no longer be necessary. But he plays it right along with the rest of socialists so my take is that the wrong black person was elected if we really do want to get to the post-racial side. If only we could have ended up with Thomas Sowell.
Anyone that says crap like this on a regular basis needs to wipe their mouths with toilet paper.
Speaking of toilet paper, are they getting any in Cuba, or are all the trees denuded?
If this woman was my rep, I would move…
People really need to take their rose colored glasses off and look at these people as they are.
People like Rep. Watson and Obama did not grow up thinking of John Wayne, Gary Cooper, Reagan and the founders of this country as heroes.
Their heroes have always been Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao, Castro, Che and all the leftists communists of the past century. They scream it from the rooftops and we ignore them.
They hate capitalism. Their mission is to destroy the capitalist way of life.
Bankrupting this country is just the first of many steps toward total central control for these leftists. Ask them, they will tell you.
And the process has been in motion for decades in the public school system. Softening up the children so they have no idea about the greatness of this country and the capitalist system.
Listen to this woman and tell me that is not her goal. Listen to all of them.
Dimsdale said, “If this woman was my rep, I would move…” Her district is racially gerrymandered. Do you think she would run in a district with a large white majority?
***
Rep. Diane Watson (D-CA) is living proof that racism is alive and well in the United States of America. And that racism and stupidity comes in all skin colors and ethnic backgrounds.
***
Fidel Castro claimed to be bringing a better life to the Cuban people. He denied being a communist until he had complete control of the police and military in Cuba. Then the mask came off.
***
The ever popular (with “democrats”, liberals, and other stupid people) Che Guevera became Fidel’s equivalent to Stalin’s Lavrenti Beria–the head secret police torturer and executioner. He loved his work as he executed the democratic patriots that Castro used and betrayed.
***
Cuban People risk their lives by gunfire and sharks to escape the “workers paradise” that Diane promotes. She and the Black Congressional Congress members should be exiled to Cuba so she can fully enjoy the benefits of communism at it’s finest.
***
Read Cuban prizewinning blogger Yoani Sanchez to see how most Cubans live as second class citizens in Cuba. About special stores for the rulers, and two currency systems–one worthless for the average Cuban, and the other great for the ruling class.
***
Or read National Geographic’s articles on life in Cuba–doctors making the same amount as cab drives, using folk medicine cures because no antibiotics are available to treat common STD’s, etc.
***
Maybe Diane wants to be the new Castro in the new U.S.S.A. But the people of the People’s Republik of Kalifornia deserve her–the fools keep re-electing this evil clown to “represent” them.

OT Alert!
OK Michelle, this is OT, but needs it’s own thread. Kennedy’s friend recalls that one of Teddy’s favorite topics of “humor” was Chappaquiddick. “Have you heard any new jokes about Chappaquiddick?”
Sick.
Or even a district with a large percentage of high school graduates. When the voter registration office is between the Parole Office and Needle Exchange you know you are not in friendly territory
Someone, quick, call the little men in the white coats. This woman is certifiable and dangerous. How the he11 did she get elected to public office? What kind of idiots vote for morons like this? I mean, really…this is getting ridiculous! Maybe they all thought they were voting to get her deported to a country more suitable to her ideolgy.
“I do hereby swear to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and domestic…”
Although the following has not been said publicly, I firmly believe this is what those black theology supporters feel in their heart, and hold in their heads:
I was forced to take the white man’s oath…if I hadn’t, I wouldn’t be here today to fight for you…my brothers, and sisters. Obama has changed all that. He had the vision to see beyond the Constitution, and the limitations it imposed on those of us who want to change the direction of America, and to give our people hope that someday soon, what was once simply tolerated, will be overcome!
Obama, et al, has shown that OUR Constitution can be violated at will, uncontested, and with no repercussions.
This has to change. Those who flaunt authority need to be held accountable…they are the “domestic enemies” of which that oath refers.
Any one want to help me take up a donation to move her and those like her to Cuba permently?
Talk of Wackos–Juan Williams in on Fox Report: Eric Holder is above politics and following the law!
Did Juan Williams ever sub for Jay Leno?
Fidel and Che killed uncounted thousands in Cuba in the name of ‘The Revolution’. Not just ‘the wealthy’, but anyone they did not like.
It seems that this congresswoman would like to kill millions of American’s in the name of ‘The Revolution’.
Her district graduates virtually no-one from high school. It is one of the reasons that California’s education system looks so bad statistically.
This stupid broad ought to be committed to an institution for the criminally insane. In Cuba.
Waxman
Waters
Watson
Boxer
Fienstien
Pelosi
Its embarassing telling anyone where I live…what a messed-up state.
An excellent summary and for short I like to call it “frocialism.”
Note: I’ve been trying to avoid the usual “racist” blah-blah from the
trollsbores, but what the heck. Let’s go with it. There it is, guys, in all it’s neon-racist glory. Hubba-hubba. Have at it!I would like to treat her like Che Guevara treated his political opponents.
To Arizona Neanderthal
You wrote “Earthquakes are our friends as are tsunamis and meteor strikes.”
I live in California and have never voted for Boxer, Pelosi or Feinstein. They were elected, but I don’t support them. To assume that everyone in California supports them as you inferred in your post is stupid. To wish an earthquake, tsunami or meteor strike on the state which of course would result in many people dying is just moronic. Get Bent Jerk off.
Maybe the people in her district could help her pack her things and move.
Dear Idiot, Why live in this country under our freedom and opportunity (evidenced by your position) when you can live in Cuba whose slogan could be “the land just this side of heaven”?
Holy crap. Kick out the wealthy? What a novel idea.
Deranged. I just can’t think of another word that works. Deranged
As she waves a finger. “Oh no you dihd’hnt!”
