What is up -- segment tonight many Republicans believe the Democratic Party wants to buy votes by promising people entitlements free stuff.
One of those believers is congressman Joseph Walsh.
Yes -- I think people out there.
-- -- -- Partly promises.
Moves people.
It's very -- hope that a lot of Hispanics to be dependent upon government just like hey guys aren't Americans independent parliament.
They're -- Jesse Jackson when he got -- -- were.
-- -- -- -- -- Congressman joins us now from Chicago.
So some might say that you over generalize about Hispanics and blacks and you would -- Well the answer was the Democrat party bill once everybody dependent upon government they are the party of government I mean it makes sense.
If you are dependent upon government more and more for your livelihood in your benefits.
You'll continue to vote for that party of government do you -- IE eight.
The youth and this is a question I just asked the two ladies before you do you think they did the democratic leadership and that includes President Obama of course.
They meet and they say you know -- we have to buy votes.
Because that's what it is.
We have to buy them all right so what we're going to do is target Hispanic Americans who -- this program.
We're gonna target African American -- that program in May be some Lithuanian Americans and you know so on and so forth do you really think that they they sit there and that they.
They stayed -- that -- that clearly doesn't it.
Yes I bet they do stated that explicitly -- look what the president's been doing.
His entire last six to seven months has been running around from interest group to interest group promising things.
Contraception.
War on women student loans going after the youth vote.
This is what they do and I I think they look at it as buying votes.
And I also think they look at it as look they believe in big government that's a legitimate point of view it's not one I share.
But once they have -- -- and governments.
You're gonna keep voting for them and in -- the scary point right now bill because look.
We've got half this country that's not paying federal income taxes we've got the highest rated government dependency we've had since the end of World War II.
We are about to fall off -- fiscal cliff we can't support all of this all right now.
Is it insulting though to African Americans and Hispanic Americans and both constituencies are Republicans could use some crossover votes particularly in the Hispanic precincts of -- Is it insult being for you and other Republicans to say.
-- in all you guys are just.
Not Smart enough to realize with -- well you know it's not something the only you know what don't you know what it is it's a shot at the Democratic Party I tried to be insulting toward them.
And it's which -- Jesse Jackson and you insult well basically.
You don't that kind of left wing African American leadership.
Well it's easy to insult that kinda left wing African American leadership.
Because they're complicit in this thing Jesse Jackson does want blacks dependent upon government.
Jesse Jackson doesn't want blacks to have opportunity look I have I know that -- you both from Chicago.
You know Jesse Jackson if -- where you would say your crazy what I want is opportunity and a and a hand up.
For people know Malone well I don't have the same advantage as Joseph Walsh act or Bill O'Reilly net.
Baloney the best way to give a hand up to inner city African American parents is to give them school choice given African American or Hispanic parent.
The ability to send their child that any school.
In the city Chicago Jesse Jackson stands in the way of that.
He wants to imprison.
Port black kids -- let me I want -- -- -- so obviously you and Jesse Jackson disagree on how to make things better for African Americans tonight.
-- agree with you.
All right I I have yet a former teacher I think school choice would would be much more beneficial.
To that all of -- and not -- African American but all poor people how well everybody you make it a serious action nation against Jackson.
By saying that Jackson is not well intentioned.
That he wants to keep his people in a virtual.
So lady read to the federal government.
-- -- -- -- So that's that's an -- other -- accusation a -- well I know I think he's a race hustler just like Al Sharpton is.
I mean -- -- think about this to trade on Martin case.
Jesse Jackson was quoted as saying blacks are under attack because -- -- by -- you know like I know that -- 153.
Young African American men are killed every week in this country.
94%.
Of them are killed by other young African American men we have forty shootings in the city over Memorial Day weekend.
Ten people killed black on black crime we always Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton nowhere to be found.
They are invested in people thinking there's racism.
And without racism Jesse Jackson couldn't exist right tires really appreciate you coming on thanks very much very provocative -- felt.
