Roe v. Wade a “victory for white life,” - Republican Representative Mary Miller

She didn't. She's an outright racist.

No more than if she'd substituted "black" for "white." Racists come in all colors. It's time for them to get called on it.
 
Freudian slip or not, she goofed the line. Be reasonable, please.

Agree. She just fumbled the words. According to her staff the speech said "right to life". Her saying white life didn't even make sense in the context of the sentence.

Miller can/should be ostracized for supporting and embracing Donald Trump. Am all good with that. But when trivial events like this one are distorted and blown out of proportion it just undermines valid discussions.

..
You are both correct, she probably just made a mistake while reading, it has happened to all of us.


The crowd of MAGA patriots heard that and still applauded. Excuses for them?
 
I'd go with a "slip-up" (after watching the speech), but then again, anything is possible. It may well impact on her election chances.

However, when it comes to that "Hitler" quote?

IMO it is not wrong to cite a notorious authoritarian figure, most especially an "evil" one, when pointing out a fact of social concern being mirrored currently by similar efforts. That being the efforts of extreme Leftists to infiltrate schools at all levels to indoctrinate children into authoritarian socialist and socially destructive ideologies.

Err... why did you put evil in quotation marks?
 
^^^^^
TDS comes in all forms.
 
We've been saying it for long enough now, all Republicans are missing is armbands and a special salute.
 
Have you ever put white before anything you didn't intend to? Also, how many times have you quoted Hitler in a speech claiming there is one thing Hitler was right about...?

I don't need to harp on whether the white/right was an unintended slip or intended. She said plenty else for me to know she's dangerous to democracy.
 
A Republican lawmaker called the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the nationwide right to abortion established nearly 50 years ago in Roe v. Wade a “victory for white life,” which was met with cheers by crowds at a rally held by former president Donald Trump.

“President Trump, on behalf of all the MAGA patriots in America, I want to thank you for the historic victory for white life in the Supreme Court yesterday,” Rep. Mary E. Miller (R) said at the rally Saturday night in Mendon, Ill., referring to Trump’s former campaign slogan, “Make America Great Again.”


She began clapping her hands as spectators, some clutching red “Save America” placards, also began to applaud.

Of course, Ms. Miller's spokesperson said she misread her speech. Maybe, even possibly. But the Trump crowd ate it up and applauded.

And maybe it wasn't a slip-up, because last year she quoted Hitler in a speech,

This is not the first time Miller has been scrutinized for comments in her speeches. Last year, she was forced to apologize after quoting Adolf Hitler at a “Moms for America” event in Washington.

“Hitler was right on one thing. He said, ‘Whoever has the youth has the future,’” Miller said during the rally, just two days after she was sworn in as a House member, leading to calls for her resignation on social media and from Democrats.

What is with these idiot Republicans invoking Hitler at every turn?

No wonder she's a Trump Panty Sniffer. She's evil, she's racist, and she's stupid.
 
Then quote her. I am not a fan of AOC at all, I would just like to see these examples.
We thought MSNBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC was legitimate news sources, you should of heard the violent quotes already by AOC..

If mentioning the word "Hitler" is enough to make you a Nazi, how many of you are driving Volkswagens, of which Hitler was the Godfather?

Your comments suggest you didn't even bother to watch her speech. (or that you are just being disingenuous.)

The crowd reaction was the natural response to "the victory in the Supreme Court yesterday". In which Miller was leading them in applause. It had nothing to do with the fumbled "wi...life' blurb that some on the left are seizing on.

You always go with a slip up when it is a racist Republican.

😁
 
they don't even hide behind common courtesy anymore.........Trump and co are pure fascism and the dumbasses who support them will drag the nation into the abyss.......and when the nation finally gets there it will be they who point the fingers at liberals......they don't even know that they are supporting their own destruction......they just hate
 
She clearly meant to say right to life and not white life...I will grant her that....

But what did she think Hitler was right about??


"Hitler was right on one thing. He said, ‘Whoever has the youth has the future.’”



Of all of the quotes about children are the future you could have picked -- she picked Hitler's?? Why not Whitney Houston? She exterminated far less jews than Hitler did....like, by a lot less.....

Somewhere there is a list of the stupidest things a politician ever said.

And Miller's idiotic Hitler comment has to be in the Top Ten...


..
 
Her comment doesn't even make sense...
No it doesn’t. If anything it’s abortion on demand that’s been a “victory for white life.”

Exactly... she has done a 180 on logic.
