SANTA ANA – Democratic Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez said Friday that her now-famous remark about “Vietnamese” trying to take her seat had been misinterpreted but apologized if it caused any offense.She did not, however, apologize for calling her Republican challenger Van Tran – himself an immigrant from Vietnam – anti-immigrant. Instead, she accused him of using her words to "take a cheap political shot."Sanchez told an interviewer earlier this month on Spanish-language television that “the Vietnamese and the Republicans” were trying to wrest control of her seat in Congress. She described Tran in the same interview as

“Instead, she accused him of using her words to “take a cheap political shot.””
Yeah, that’s always been a problem for the Democrats, someone quoting their own words.

She tried to play the race card and it backfired.

Am I mistaken but isn’t Sanchez her maiden name? I thought she used her married name when she originally ran but switched over to Sanchez so she could “relate” to the Hispanic voters.

Are these the same Vietnamese people who risked their lives opposing communism, left behind everything they had for a better opportunity in the US, worked their hands to the bone to build a better life in a new country, and now want to serve their citizens in public office? Is that whom she is referring to?

Sanchez is one of the nastiest race baiters in Congress. She, and her sister, both retain their maiden names for political purposes. Her election was highly suspect and almost certainly a result of voter fraud…many thousands of votes were found to be cast by illegals. I pray that this election the people of Orange County will vote her out and vote in someone more honorable.

Again, the oft used “…if it caused any offense…”. As if it didn’t and we’re crazy.

Her vietnam comment cannot be misinterpreted.
And this Sanchez beat Bob Dornan by about one hundred votes, with a bunch of illegals voting. That was the reason for the motor voter law prized by Bill clinton. Welfare recipients are also almost automatically registered to vote under motor voter.

What was Loretta’s original name?

All conservatives ask is to be quoted correctly and in context.
Socialists never want to be quoted (because you might not understand their nuance)…

Sanchez is her maiden name. At one time she ran as a Republican for city council, I believe, using her married name Bixley or Bixby…she’s a political whore who decided using her maiden name and changing party’s would help her politically.
She ran a very questionable campaign and many illegals voted in that election. B-1 Bob Dornan should have challenged the election results more forcefully but instead decided to accept defeat and not create ill will. Never again folks, never again!

It was Bixbey. She changed her name for the same reason she said this stuff on the local Spanish language TV station. She knows most of the Spanish speaking latinos will vote exclusively on identity politics without regard for philosophy or consequences. These folks are stuck in “us vs. them” tribal thinking whick Ms. Bixbey shamelessly exploits.

By the way, even though she herself is, for all practical purposes a Communist, she goes to Vietnam and stands up for freedom and human rights precisely to pander to the Vietnamese in her district.
