"The senator then went on to note her family is a multicultural one." Included in the senator's statement:"....and some Irish, lousy Irish." A racist and ignorant remark, that had it been made concerning people of color, would have had her drummed out of the senate the next day. I take offense to this comment and am appalled that any adult,let alone a public figure, can say that to a group of children without any reaction.  She at the least should offer a public apology immediately. The best hope is that she will not be seen in any elected office ever again.  And, that she publicly admits her lies and apologizes to those children---and to all of Colorado.
