Incoming Nevada Speaker is a real piece of work

[RogueBeaver]

He's resigning as Pub leader.

[Person Man]

Do you think there is some unwritten, unspoken dare on the right to see how far right you can justify yourself being or being tolerated as? Think of it as a friendly ideological arms race comparable to see who can build the fastest boat, train, car or plane, get to space the cheapest or become the world's fattest man?

[Brittain33]

He's resigning as Pub leader.

Wow, that's some profound contrition from him.

The Reno News and Review dug up the past writings of Nevada Assembly speaker-designate Ira Hansen (R) which would make him “one of the most controversial speakers in Nevada history.”

“While members of the GOP caucus talked about a united front, they selected as speaker a legislator who is one of the most contentious public officials in the state. Hansen doesn’t like blacks, gays, Israel, many Republicans, and most Nevadans—he once wrote that newcomers to the state, who constitute four of every five Nevadans, should accept Nevada as it is or leave.”

Here are a couple choice quotes:

On race: “The relationship of Negroes and Democrats is truly a master-slave relationship, with the benevolent master knowing what’s best for his simple minded darkies. For American blacks, being denied choice and forced to attend the failing and inferior government school system is a form of involuntary servitude. Let’s call it what it truly is—educational slavery.”

On women: “Today, when Army men look at women in the ranks with ’longing in their eyes’ it very well may constitute ’sexual harassment.’ The truth is, women do not belong in the Army or Navy or Marine Corps, except in certain limited fields.”

Sounds like a mainstream Republican.  What's the issue here?

Mainstream republicans don't support slavery. Heck, I don't think Jim Risch (most conservative member of the senate) supports slavery.

He wasn't supporting slavery.  He was saying Democrats keep blacks in slavery.

It's actually a common meme amongst the far right- Civil Rights are Slavery because Blacks depend on them to not be enslaved. That dependency is Slavery.

You seriously think that advocating slavery is no worse than comparing something to slavery?

I would definitely say comparing any modern mainstream American position to slavery is Godwinian. However, as a Democrat,  questioning a policy as somehow restoring a racial civil system is a legitimate thing to do. It's really a fine line between calling a racist a racist, race baiting and full on trolling.

[The_Doctor]

Did his own conference know about this? There may be a move to kick him out as Speaker before the January session and replace him with another Republican. Sandoval has too much riding on this and the best shot to push through his agenda.

In light of the news, I bet that Sandoval spearheaded the movement to oust Hannsen as Speaker and forced him out.

[RogueBeaver]

He did - announced today that he summoned Hansen and demanded his resignation last Friday. Vote will be between Bachmannite Michele Fiore and regular Paul Anderson.

It's actually a common meme amongst the far right- Civil Rights are Slavery because Blacks depend on them to not be enslaved. That dependency is Slavery.

It's not a meme. It's two centuries of party history as well as modern party leadership who remove opportunity and self-determination by trapping under-privileged kids in failing public school districts, while taxing their parents out of the economy to avoid "exploitation" by business.

The only thing worse than the Democratic slavers are the Republicans who allow Democrats to operate with impunity because the GOP is worried about its image. Republicans are going to be called racist no matter what so they might as well get their hands dirty by rebuilding the lower classes.

[Incipimus iterum]

Thank god he resigned

That's quite Orweilian. Cause problems blame them on those who fix them. Then hobble their attempts and say that they are failing because they are one causing the problems. Sounds like something Cartman would do on South Park...or maybe Bender on Futurama. AD sometimes has interesting ideas...there are many interesting libertarian ideas, but 70-80% of them are clown shoes.

What's the difference if instead of Hansen they choose this Fiore character?
That she has a smaller paper trail?

A mother who "nourishes" her children by feeding them birthday cake every day is guilty of gross negligence. If this observation is an Orwellian impropriety, change the color of your avatar, and spread the problem around by increasing the birthday cake budget.

Entitlement spending is like nutritional science and medical science. If you diagnose the problem incorrectly, and you prescribe the wrong treatment, in the wrong dosage, and you administer incorrect rehab procedures, you are Dr. Kevorkian, not Hippocrates.

Democrats have a history of prescribing treatments that are worse than the disease. It is the modus operandi of the party. If only they would embrace science, perhaps they would stop maximizing collateral damage and treating symptoms.

[RogueBeaver]

LL: Fiore makes Angle look sane. Saying striking culinary workers who catcall should be beaten and shot , being Bundy's biggest fan who called the BLM "Nazi-minded bullies", among many other things.

So, she is no better than Hansen.

[RogueBeaver]

The new leadership team. New Speaker is experienced and congenial but seen as a potential tool of the new majority leader... Michele Fiore. Hansen is assistant majority leader and Jim Wheeler, he of voting for slavery if his constituents wanted infamy, is majority whip.

[World politics is up Schmitt creek]

Gross.

[RogueBeaver]

3 nutters led by a tool of theirs. Senate will block the crazy before it gets to Sandoval's desk, hopefully.

[RogueBeaver]

Fiore has 7 digit in tax liens.

[KCDem]

^Can you find any sane Nevada Republicans beside Sandoval and Heller?

You've got to be the biggest tool on this board besides KCDem ... funny that you're both partisan Democratic foot soldiers.

As for this new speaker, sounds like a whacko.  Embarrassing that they'd elect him.

You guys both talk about registered Republicans like they're these vile, heartless beings rather than folks who might just disagree with your uniformly liberal political views.
