The Daily Caller – by Brendan Bordelon
Democratic Florida Rep. Joe Garcia — fresh off being caught eating his own earwax on camera — was caught red-handed (or is it yellow-fingered?) in another gaffe this week, claiming that low crime rates in border cities with lots of federal immigration workers is proof that “Communism works.”
Garcia made the comment during a Google hangout he convened last week to talk about comprehensive immigration reform with supporters. The Democrat attempted to point out how, for all their talk about limited government, many Republicans are fine spending loads of government money on border security.
“Let me give you an example, the kind of money we’ve poured in,” he said. “So the most dangerous — sorry, the safest city in America is El Paso, Texas. It happens to be across the border from the most dangerous city in the Americas, which is Juarez. Right?”
“And two of the safest cities in America, two of them are on the border with Mexico,” Garcia continued. “And of course, the reason is we’ve proved that Communism works. If you give everybody a good government job, there’s no crime.”
“But that isn’t what we should be doing on the border,” he continued. “The kind of money we’ve poured into it, and we’re having diminishing returns.”
The video was uploaded to YouTube by the America Rising PAC, a Republican PAC founded in 2013 and dedicated to opposition research. It’s also the same group that originally uploaded Garcia’s earwax snafu.
Garcia, who is of Cuban descent along with many of his south Florida constituents, told the Miami Herald he never meant to espouse Communism — and was instead taking a tongue-in-cheek shot at his GOP opponents.
“This is an absurdity, accusing the son of Cuban immigrants of believing in Communism is just ridiculous,” he declared.
But Garcia’s district is already rated a toss-up by the Cook Political Report, and with their second attack on the congressman in a week America Rising clearly senses an opening in the south Florida district.
Coupling the “ew” factor of the earwax video with Garcia’s chirpy endorsement of Communism, Republicans now have a rather robust chest of opposition material to deploy in Florida this fall.

Complete and utter nut case ……
He’s just another example that voting
IS NOT working….and has not, for quite
some time.
Who in their right mind would put this piece
of excrement in office ?
It’s the ear wax. It must be. I’m sure that the chem-trail dust has settled in his ears and by eating it has caused irrefutable brain damage. No one can be this ignorant. This is what you get from watching the msm.
What can I say, just another nutcase in a political position. Is knowing the Constitution and the Bill of Rights even a prerequisite for the position anymore? I guess not since Barry pretty much proved that.
Ummm – I guess he hasn’t read much of Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto then, or George Orwell’s 1984 for that matter.
Actually we have this same “falling crime figures” think here in the UK, but people worked out it is not that there is less crime, but the police are so useless nobody bothers reporting small to medium crimes any more.
Ear wax during the day because scat eating (crap eating) leaves a smelly breath that you just can’t get rid of while amongst the soviet peasants. Scat is a top “sexual” act by queers right next to “Golden Showers”. 😛 (if you think crapping in someone elses mouth is a sex act. Ear wax eating is kinda of a “longing for the real thing” substitute. Hmmmm, looking forward to that undigested corn. Demican here is typical of all of the Soviets that have gravitated to “power” through the Diebold Machine. BUY MORE AMMO. Liberty1775. MGK/GDW!
Communism never died they simply pretended to lose and moved over here.
Then they started calling themselves Liberals.
And these are the assholes running the country.
No wonder this country is in “self destruct” mode.
You wonder if these dems and liberals, better known as communists realize that their rights to free speech, religion, their rights to believe they are dems come from the Republic. Our country is a Republic, the courts and police don’t work for anything but a Republic. Courts and police are now being used for revenue generation instead of Justice, that’s communism. In the Democratic utopia these libs and dems would have already been murdered by their own people so don’t feel so bad when you are forced to remove these confused traitors from our republic.
