Sharron Angle: Custodial work something "Americans don't do"

By Mark Benjamin

http://www.salon.com/news/politics/war_room/index.html?story=/politics/war_room/2010/05/24/sharron_angle_jobs_americans



We're slowly learning more about Sharron Angle, the Tea Party-endorsed U.S. Senate candidate in Nevada who now leads the GOP race to take on Majority Leader Harry Reid in the fall.

For instance, Salon just came across this video, apparently posted by Angle's campaign, of Angle describing her childhood to a GOP town hall audience last September (starts at around the 1:50 mark):

We moved to the state of Nevada when I was three-and-a-half. My father bought a small business out in front of the convention center in Reno -- and it wasn't a convention center then; it was an onion field. His small business was a motel And so we did those things as a kid growing up that Americans don’t do. We cleaned bathrooms and made beds and swept floors, did laundry, those kinds of things.

2. Americans don't clean?
Then how did Thelma Ritter make a living playing a wisecracking maid for so many years?

3. Funny.

A friend of mines' mom does custodial work. I'll have to tell her that she doesn't anymore.

I guess I don't clean my bathroom, make my bed (Well, I don't do that), sweep my floors, or do laundry.

My apt is a mess and I smell.

4. At the hospital here in Minnesota where I take my
radiation treatments for my breast cancer I have seen three "maids". There is a older white lady that does all the vacuuming. There is a middle aged white lady that empties trash, and cleans the counters etc. What does she mean Americans don't do cleaning etc.

5. Maybe she's just making up a pre excuse for why she has illegals doing her house work and
landscaping her yard? You know she had to hire illegals because Americans don't do that type of work excuse that all good little tea baggers pull out of their ass when busted for hiring folks they are wanting to out law.
