GOP strategist's remarks on FBN called “racist bullshit” by former Republican senator

As Mediaite noted, GOP strategist Jack Burkman said that the United States Postal Service employs unskilled Nigerians, and at one point said that “most of these guys working in the post office should be driving cabs.” Former U.S. Senator Al D'Amato (R-NY) rebuked Burkman by stating, “You are a nasty racist. ... That's a bunch of bullshit. And you should be ashamed of yourself and have your mouth washed out. What the hell are you talking about?”

After Burkman tried to interrupt D'Amato to defend his remarks, the former senator said, “Shut up, I've listened to your racist bullshit.”
