Was Joe Wilson censured because he's white?

Have you seen this article For the Black Caucus, New Power and an Urgency in Using It?

Seems to me like that's exactly what the WaPo came dangerously close to admitting to.

[Boiling Pots]

He was not censured.

And yes, the CBC has Pelosi by her nuts.

[devistate one four]

I believe so.

"Racism has reared its ugly head in our country," she said emphatically, "and we've already sent word to the president that we've got your back. We're here when you need us."

Yes, racism is back. And, it's raised its ugly head in the formation of caucuses like the one represented in this article.

BTW, are there any conservative members in the Black Caucus? Anyone know?

[Halfmanhalfamazing]

Ok, well yes.

Perhaps targetted would’ve been a better word.

But either way....................

I have heard about the ultimate Congressional Caucus groups.

One is called the Cock Caucus

The other is called the Vagina Monologue Caucus.

What is puzzling though is that Barny Franks and Nancy Pelosi belong to both.

Its hard to keep these liberal lefties straight.

...Seems Barbara Lee can’t think for herself, so she makes up for it by swimming in the toilet with the rest of the elite turds in the administration and congress. If she can float until 2010, maybe a good flush will get rid of her and all the rest of the scum in the bowl...

"It is important for everybody in the mainstream of our nation's politics to ensure that no extremist, and certainly no racist views, can seek refuge within our ranks," Clyburn said.

That's hilarious coming an extremist race hustler.

No, it's the floaters that are the more difficult to flush completely away.

I will put it this way: it is hard for me to imagine that Wilson would have been censured were he a member of the CBC. If he were a black Republican, I could imagine it.

It should be noted that the CBC is arguably racist, in that it has denied membership to white and Asian members of Congress who represent heavily black districts.

Ethical violations and questions have come along with that ascension to power. Rangel, Rep. Donald M. Payne (D-N.J.), Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), Rep. Carolyn Kilpatrick (D-Mich.), Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Ill.) and Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) are all facing ethics investigations. Former representative William J. Jefferson (D-La.), who had been a longtime member of the caucus, was convicted in August of 11 corruption charges

All of which just proves how much racism still exists.

[ozzymandus]

No conservatives in the CBC. One republican rep tried to join and they wouldn’t let him. It’s a club for black commies.

[ozzymandus]

We need to start yelling “racism” whenever a white person is criticized by the left, like they do whenever a black person is criticized by the right.

[Non-Sequitur]

He was censured because he was a Republican. A Democrat could have hit President Bush with a rotten tomato during the State of the Union address and he’d walk away as a champion of free speech.

[Lawgvr1955]

Like many others, I sent Joe Wilson a campaign donation. Last I saw, he took in over $2,000,000.

Anyone know what his opponent took in?

[SaraJohnson]

Yes he was. We have been reading alot of black racism stories recently. The cop who told the tea party protestor he could not use his sign because we are not free “no mo.” Black teachers all over the country forcing school children to sing worship songs to Obama because he is Black. Black teacher in Dallas racially harassing seven year old children in her reading class. Not to mention all the stories of black (usually in groups) on white (usually alone) violent crime in the cities.

Black racism is real and it is just as ugly and dangerous as the KKK. Why is there a racist congressional black cacus?
