You Blacks Had it Sooooo Good

Ah, a new contender for stupidest thing to say, ever!

Meet. Rep. Trent Franks (R-AZ):

In this country, we had slavery for God knows how long. And now we look back on it and we say “How brave were they? What was the matter with them? You know, I can’t believe, you know, four million slaves. This is incredible.” And we’re right, we’re right. We should look back on that with criticism. It is a crushing mark on America’s soul. And yet today, half of all black children are aborted. Half of all black children are aborted. Far more of the African-American community is being devastated by the policies of today than were being devastated by policies of slavery. And I think, What does it take to get us to wake up?

 Yes, blacks had it better as slaves than they do now.  Why?  Because of abortion.  

Way to have some perspective, Congressman Franks!
