Apparently the Flake boy isn't the only GOP congressman's son with a racist mind and lack of filter.
Nevada Congressmans Son: Obama Is Only Good At "Spear Chucking And Rock Skipping"
Rep. Joe Hecks son Joey has made several racist, homophobic, and sexist remarks on Twitter. I apologize to everyone he may have offended, the Congressman tells BuzzFeed.
He also wrote that Mitt Romney raped Obama and made him his slave during a debate.
In an exchange with a friend during the debate on October 3rd, Heck asked rhetorically, I would like somebody to tell me one good thing Obama did in these past 4 years
. I got nothing. Later in the conversation he said yeah like spear chucking and rock skipping. The sports they do in his home country
Hecks political comments are particularly jarring, since his twitter feed clearly shows his active engagement not only in national politics, but his fathers reelection race last year. He repeatedly argues his fathers job as a congressman gives him an inside understanding of politics: For instance, during the Oct. 16 debate he tweeted Obama didnt make the call to kill Osama
That was the intelligence committee #iwouldknow.

So Joey is a self-important, privileged, racist asshole...who knew or could possibly see it coming!?!?
The fruit does not fall far from the tree, methinks.
