A Dangerous Precedent
|
Rep. Barry Moore gave us the what yesterday. This is the how.
| Democrats are delusional if they believe the GOP won’t return the favor and push Omar from her post on the House Foreign Affairs Committee when the tables are turned. |
Having rejected an offer of compromise and concession from GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy
...the GOP house majority whip. He replaces Eric Cantor, who got whupped because his politix are like Kevin McCarthy's...
, House Majority Leader the mealy-mouthed Steny Stinky Hoyer
Continued from Page 4
...Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi's second banana, or plaintain, or mango, or whatever he is. Number Two, anyway...
is plowing ahead with plans to strip the crackpot GOP congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) of her committee assignments. Historically, each party manages its own affairs when it comes to these posts, but Hoyer and the Democrats clearly prefer to make a martyr out of Greene, whom they have already helped to turn into a celebrity. Greene has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars thanks to their campaign.
Justifying his move, Hoyer cited the unprecedented threat Greene poses, telling news hounds he couldn’t think of an "analogous" situation during his four decade stint in Congress. We can.
The House has 435 members. At any one time, they include more than a few purveyors of outlandish conspiracy theories. Former Georgia representative Cynthia McKinney was a 9/11 truther who personally assaulted a Capitol police officer because he asked her for identification. She was a national embarrassment and a raging anti-Semite but she was not stripped of her committee posts.
But there’s no need to dust off the history books to find examples of conspiracy theorists in the Democratic Party
...every time you hear the phrase white people , white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
: Rep. The Ageless and Downright Brilliant Comrade Maxine Impeach 45! Waters
...U.S. Representative for California's 43rd congressional district, serving since 1991, a total of 29.18754 years. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the most senior of the twelve black women currently serving in the United States Congress, and a member and former chair of the Congressional Black Caucus. Before becoming a member of Congress she served in the California Assembly, to which she was first elected back when Disco was in flower, in 1976, which would make it 44.18548 years. She has been a politician for virtually all her adult life. If she was a little brighter she'd be a Communist...
(D., Calif.) was the chief congressional purveyor of the debunked theory that the CIA helped funnel crack cocaine to black neighborhoods in Los Angeles in the 1990s; Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee
...the clownish U.S. Representative-for-life for Texas's 18th congressional district, serving since 1995. The district includes most of inner-city Houston. She is noted for her lack of tact and intellect. She is a member of the Democratic Party, and almost its epitome...
(D., Texas) wondered why the story wasn’t getting more coverage.
Along with Waters, Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D., Maryland) was a proponent of the baseless claim that Clinton-era commerce secretary Ron Brown was murdered, and Mfume argued last summer that the U.S. postal service was "hijacking mailboxes off of every corner."
Greene’s dalliances with anti-Semitism predate her election to Congress, and she continues to play footsie with Jew haters. Rep. Ilhan Omar
...Somali-American Dem representative from Minnesota. She was apparently married to her brother and may be her own grandmaw on her mother's side...
(D., Minn.) was an anti-Semite before she got to Congress and quickly reoffended upon her arrival. Like Greene, Omar takes a dim view of the Jewish people. Greene thinks a Jewish space laser caused the Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, wildfires and decries the "neocon reign of death in the womb and across the world." Omar thinks the Jewish state has "hypnotized the world" and that pro-Israel groups in the United States advocate for "allegiance to a foreign country."
Democrats are delusional if they believe the GOP won’t return the favor and push Omar from her post on the House Foreign Affairs Committee when the tables are turned.
Republicans in Congress should have zero tolerance for Greene’s conspiracy-mongering, but they should be unified in safeguarding the long-standing norm that the parties must police their own or suffer the consequences. If the Democrats break that norm, this game won’t stop with Greene.
