We all know what Young said:

"My father had a ranch; we used to have 50-60 wetbacks to pick tomatoes, it takes two people to pick the same tomatoes now. It's all done by machine."

The old fart is just another out of touch throwback Republican moron that hasn't learned that this isn't the 50's anymore. No surprise there.

This reaction I find interesting though:

Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, the number two Republican in the upper chamber, was also quick to seek distance from the comment. He blasted Young in a statement, saying migrant workers come to the country for work and opportunities, not to "hear ethnic slurs and derogatory language from elected officials."

"The comments used by Rep. Young do nothing to elevate our party, political discourse or the millions who come here looking for economic opportunity," he continued.

In that order. Party first, political discourse second, people third.

Party first.

Right or wrong?
