A candidate for Mayor of a small New Jersey town was caught on tape allegedly spewing a racist rant in which she said she didn’t want her village to become a “f------ n----- town.”


quote:

“This is terrible. This is terrible. This is gonna be a f------ n----- town,” Burke is allegedly heard yelling in the background, as Papa is heard discussing tax changes.


quote:

Marie Strumolo Burke, who is running for mayor in Belleville, N.J. as a Democrat, was reportedly heard making the vitriolic comments on a voicemail from 2013, according to NJ.com.

The article goes on to state she denies the voice on tape is hers.

No, No. Democrats can't be racist, only the republicans can.

All of these democrats falling on their faces when it comes to race issues is setting up nicely for Rand to get votes from minorities.

Jabba the Hutt and Candy Crowley must've had a conjugal visit sometime in the past.

It's an accusation. It's probably not true.

She must be publicly executed.

No No NOOO!!

She was just singing that song from Lipps, Inc:

"Won't you take me to.... Funky Town"


She just misheard the words as:

"Won't you take me to..F... N..... Town"


Simple mistake

"Earlier this week, Belleville council members voted to request a censure from the Democratic National Committee of Strumolo Burke due to the purported comments."

With all of the floodlights shining on Sterling right now, I would imagine the DNC will be tripping all over itself to get said censure out to the media posthaste.
