Artur Górski (born January 30, 1970 in Warsaw) is a Polish politician. He was elected to Sejm on September 25, 2005 getting 2850 votes in 19 Warsaw district, running on the Law and Justice ticket. He was reelected in 2007 and is currently in office.
In late 2006, he spearheaded an initiative - along with other members of LPR, PSL and his own party - to declare Jesus Christ the honorary King of Poland.[1][2]
On November 5, 2008, a day after Barack Obama's victory in the presidential election, he called Obama the "black messiah of the new left" and said his victory marks the "end of the civilization of the white man".[3][4] On December 4, 2008 the Sejm's Parliamentary Ethics Commission ordered Górski to apologize publicly for his comments about Barack Obama or to face parliamentary disciplinary proceedings. Górski told the journalists that he probably will apologize but that he had two weeks to make up his mind.[5]
In April 2010, Górski apologized after suggesting in an interview that Russia might have been responsible for the Polish Air Force Tu-154 crash which killed President Lech Kaczyński. Górski said that he had been speaking in "a state of shock".[6]
