Move over, #Fruitpickers and #Bedmakers! There’s a new stereotypical immigrant role in town:
Obama says its unAmerican to throw out immigrants who "mow our lawns, make our beds, clean our bedpans"

Another stroke of genius, that!

Please tell me that Obama did not add "bed pan-cleaners" to "fruit-pickers" and "bed-makers." Please.

Oh, but he did. During this afternoon’s amnesty speech in Las Vegas.
Obama is talking about "Ppl who clean out bedpans". Seriously? This is who he claims he is giving a pass?

Obama stated it's un-American to throw out immigrants who "mow our lawns, make our beds, clean our bedpans." Stereotype much, sir??

Oh my… RT @tobyharnden: Obama says its unAmerican to throw out immigrants who "mow our lawns, make our beds, clean our bedpans"

So in past 24 hours Obama has insulted illegals 2x by saying they "mow our lawns, make our beds, pick our fruit and clean our bedpans". Geez

@tobyharnden Bedpans now? Holy smokes.

Did Obama really say immigrants "clean our bedpans"?
He needs a podium pan for the amount of crap he spews during his speeches.

Dear President Obama: My mother, an immigrant, never:
Mowed lawns
Made beds
Cleaned bedpans
Picked fruit#Racist— Cameron Gray (@Cameron_Gray) November 21, 2014
"clean our bedpans" <- Imagine a Republican saying this.

We imagine he’d be pummeled. But not Obama. He’s special.

Unbelievable.
Not sure who wrote that "people who mow our lawns and change our bedpans" line, but let's scrap it from the next #immigration speech. #yikes
