Rep. Steve King (R-IA) loses his dog whistle

[E B]

Lost, or maybe tossed into the fire.



And a fan:



I feel like it's 50/50 he owns it (apparently, he's been in milder versions of this territory for years) or realizes he said too much out loud and claims he was hacked.

I don't understand it. I don't understand what either of them said. No, I take that back. I understand that David Duke praised Steve King for something he wrote that I didn't understand. Can someone translate, please?

Thank you very much for the link, ruby. I am still a bit unclear why there is an allusion to other people's babies, but that link was fabulous. After the article in "The Washington Post" there was a discussion in the comments section that really interested me. One reader who was commenting seemed to know a good deal about the ancient world and cited bits and bobs about ancient Egypt and classical Greece. Someone even pointed out that Jesus would not have been a white Christian with baby blue eyes. It turns out that Megyn Kelly had to be told that Jesus was not "a white man" after she announced that both "Santa Claus" and "Jesus" were "white". (I fact checked this one myself, folks.) Jesus would have been a middle eastern man, a Semite, of the Jewish faith, of course.

I surmise he is talking about people who live in this country or immigrating to it who are not white. He is referring to their children.

As far as Jesus, since he was Jewish, he probably would have had an olive complexion and brown eyes- a very middle eastern look.
