Dem Congresswoman: Only Reason I’d Vote for Syria Attack Is Loyalty to Obama
News Busters ^ | Swptember 3, 2013 | Noel Sheppard

Democratic Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton said Tuesday that at the current time, the only reason she would vote in favor of an attack on Syria was out of loyalty to Barack Obama.

Appearing on radio's Bill Press Show, the non-voting delegate from the District of Columbia also said if the President actually gets the votes he needs, "it’ll be because of loyalty of Democrats. They just don’t want to see him shamed and humiliated on the national stage"

Seems pretty easy to identify our enemies but when they even tell you loyalty to skin color is more important than the country well,,, I think that tree of liberty is looking quite weakly right now.

"Democratic Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton said Tuesday that at the current time, the only reason she would vote in favor of an attack on Syria was out of loyalty to Barack Obama."

If Obama decided to attack Canada I guess Eleanor Holmes Norton would vote for it out of "loyalty" to Obama. If Obama decided to round up the population of an American town and shoot and execute them, Holmes Norton would back Obama out of loyalty. What a brainless lemming.

I’m not jumping on you. You are exactly right. I just saw an amazing article today written by a lying black hack journo wanna-be about how blacks need to “stop supporting whites and take care of ourselves”. It was amazing. I said to myself, right, we can’t wait for them to take a break from “improving” our communities and schools, to go build those world-beating communities and schools for themselves they’ve had on hold all this time, on our behalf.

Eleanor Holmes Norton is a Trayvon. She only votes for skin color.

>>BACKGROUND MUSIC-—”That Old Black Magic Has Me In Its Spell”<<

Apropos, I was also thinking:

Styx The Grand Illusion

Welcome to the Grand illusion
Come on in and see what’s happening
Pay the price, get your tickets for the show
The stage is set, the band starts playing
Suddenly your heart is pounding
Wishing secretly you were a star.

But don’t be fooled by the radio
The TV or the magazines
They show you photographs of how your life should be
But they’re just someone else’s fantasy
So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because you never win the game
Just remember that it’s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we’re all the same.
We’re all the same...

So if you think your life is complete confusion
Because your neighbors got it made
Just remember that it’s a Grand illusion
And deep inside we’re all the same.
We’re all the same...

America spells competition, join us in our blind ambition
Get yourself a brand new motor car
Someday soon we’ll stop to ponder what on Earth’s this spell we’re under
We made the grade and still we wonder who the hell we are

That’s why the dems in congress are going to vote for 0bama’s madness. They listened to the public, which said “no bombing” and they got a phone call from the big guy, and that settled it.

Kudos for FR posters not to upload a photo of Holmes ... recognizing that as a non-voting representative from DC who regards obama with awe, a photo is totally unnecessary.

Eleanor, it’s too late - the entire planet has Barry Soeotoro’s number, all except for people like you who voted for this Usurper (99.9% of those you represent there in the District of Columbia).

The question is how many people will vote “present” or not vote.

We have too many people, (not just black liberals) who show no evidence of rational thought. They have no ability to do anything constructive or produce anything of value, but they believe themselves worthy of telling me what to do. Correction, they believe themselves worthy of forcing me to do what is against my best interest. I guess, if you’ve spent your whole life surrounded by fools, and you’re smarter than they, you would think yourself qualified to tell others what to do. They should stop judging everyone by what they see in the hood.

Hey, eleanor...have you and your felon husband paid your taxes as yet? You degenerates should be in the dock and face a future with a barred window. P.S., you’re not a “real” member of congress anyway, you cretin.
