L.A.'s Next Mayor? Wendy Greuel Channels Laura Chick
When the former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, said that bi-lingual education taught "the language of living in a ghetto" and not the language of prosperity, many were outraged. Since Los Angeles is the second largest Spanish-speaking city in the world, the offense couldn't have felt stronger in the US than here.
Then Newt said that he meant ghetto in a Jew way... because they're not prosperous? Preposterous! We're sure LA's chosen people were thrilled about that one.
So Newt created a video, posted it up on his YouTube account today, and here it is. Happy now?
Video of his original statement after the jump.

What a douchebag. Someone in his staff must have reminded him that there's brown people out there that speak both languages and vote.
Mando,
"..that there's brown people." Who's the douchebag now?
You are.
