I knew nothing about Kansas Democrat Congressman Dennis Moore before today. Now that I do, I'd like to mark him down as someone who needs to be defeated in 2010 as a disgrace to the nation.

Speaking to a respected Hispanic leader in KCK, Dennis Moore reportedly called decorated and disabled Marine Veteran and Congressional Opponent "White Trash" in a recent (recorded) telephone conversation. The KCK leader, who has formally supported the incumbent congressman, is supporting Daniel Gilyeat's candidacy for the Kansas 3rd District Congressional seat. Dennis Moore called the KCK man after hearing the Hispanic community leader's support had changed. Dennis Moore said he had $7 million for the campaign and could not believe the naturalized citizen was supporting "White Trash" over Moore.

They say this conversation is recorded. Here's hoping it appears on the Internet immediately -- we need to expose the sort of contempt that Democrats have for their opponents. The use of the slur in question is unacceptable, and if he is willing to use such a slur regarding a decorated veteran of white ancestry, I have to wonder what terms he uses for African-Americans, Hispanics or other minorities when he thinks he can get away with it.

As for his GOP challenger, Daniel Gilyeat, I can say that all I know is that he is a combat veteran who not only served honorably as a marine, but also gave of his own flesh in defense of the United States of America. I cannot speak to his position on issues, but I'd have to argue that his sacrifice shows him to be a better man than the hate-mongering Democrat incumbent he is looking to unseat in 2010.
