Barry offends Polish-Americans while apologizing to Asian-Americans

When apologizing to the Asian community for comments he made last month, D.C. councilmember Marion
 Barry may have offended another minority group on Thursday: Polish people.

Barry said the U.S. has had racial tensions since its founding.

"The Irish caught hell, the Jews caught hell, the Polacks caught hell," Barry said. "We want Ward 8 to be the model of diversity."

The word "Polack" is a derogatory term that describes people of Polish descent.

Barry has been a racist for decades. Crack head. Forces his racist attitude onto others as part of his position every day. If he was white, he'd been gone and in prison years ago. Civil Rights leader? Yeah right!

Who really cares what this sorry excuse of a man says about anything? Why he's perpetuated I'll never know.
