NY-26: Hispanics Will Start a New Civil War, Crazy Jack Davis Says

by: James L.

Tue Aug 26, 2008 at 4:45 PM EDT

Nutjob candidate Jack Davis ("D") is at it again. The wild-eyed billionaire industrialist and frequent loser has most recently caught flak for making some, uh, unique observations about immigration:

Congressional candidate Jack Davis, in a speech earlier this year, warned that increasing immigration from Mexico could lead to a new civil war between northern states and Mexican-influenced Southern states that may want to secede from the United States.

"In the latter part of this century or the next, Mexicans will be a majority in many of the states and could therefore take control of the state government using the democratic process," Davis said in the speech. "They could then secede from the United States, and then we might have another civil war." [...]

"They have an allegiance to Mexico, where they were taught the U. S. fought an unjust war with Mexico and took this territory," Davis said. "They believe the territory of these states belongs to Mexico."

This blunder, which occurred in March (according to the Buffalo News), was first posted by The Albany Project's Robert Harding in April, but has only recently caught the attention of the tradmed. Davis is now predictably distancing himself from his earlier remarks, but it's perhaps too late. You can't put the crazy juice back in the bottle, Jack.

Let's pray that this nutter doesn't successfully buy the Democratic nomination for this open seat.

Primary: September 9th

Sure thing Jack...

"They have an allegiance to Mexico, where they were taught the U. S. fought an unjust war with Mexico and took this territory," Davis said. "They believe the territory of these states belongs to Mexico."

If that is what is being taught in schools in Mexico, they are being taught an accurate representation of history. How on earth could anyone with any familiarity of that war not think it was unjust?

I swear I'd almost rather the repub win that race is Davis is our nominee. I have a feeling he'd be one of those nutters in Congress that just makes us all look bad.

Jack Davis is unelectable.

He could win the primary based on the sheer brute force of the $1.3m that he's already spent combined with his name recognition, but in that case, he'll lose in November.

Call me an "elitist" or whatever...

but any Democrat that votes for Jack Davis next week is truly some kind of misinformed uneducated idiot. There, I said it. There's only so much excuse-making you can do with "low information voters". At some point, you have to accept that a lot of them are just STUPID FUCKING IDIOTS.

Ack!!

What about the those of British origin who are still pissed off about that rebellion in 1776? And the French and Russians who were swindled out of massive parts of the US? And didn't the Spanish control Florida? Pretty soon native American are going to start complaining. Where will it end?

It will end

when Bugs Bunny saws off Florida, and California breaks off to go hang out with Hawaii and Alaska.

Oh, and then Texas is going to declare its independence. From EVERYONE ELSE, American OR Mexican.

Yes, Florida was controlled by the Spanish

Control of Florida went in this order:

Native Americans -> Spanish -> British -> USA -> CSA -> USA

According to legend, a Spanish pirate names Gasperilla even took control of Tampa Bay for awhile. I'm not kidding, they have a Pirate Festival every January to mark the occasion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G...

Add Jack Davis to the list of people our party is/would be better off without.

That list includes former Democrats like Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms, and Virgil Goode.
