But then professional race-mongers like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would have to find real jobs and work for a living!

Did you know that Rush calls the NAACP the NAALCP? "National Association for the Advancement of Liberal Colored People".

"A Jewish caucus would be small but it would send them off the rails."

Small? Good number of Jewish people in the House.

"Black Caucus wouldn't let J.C. Watts join because he was a Republican.:

The Black Caucus just wants to maintain its left-wing ideological purity.

Yes, let's by all means form a Jewish and a Muslim caucus. Then we can let a U.N. peace delegation moderate the hostility and terrorism in Congress! I know it's absurd but sometimes one has to use absurdity to illustrate a truth!

No.

Freedom of association."

Try setting us the White American caucus and see how quickly it is labeled as racist.

There are a large number of Jews in the Senate too - Lieberman, Coleman, Feingold, Feinstein, Boxer, Schumer, Levin,Kohl and Specter are ones that I am aware of - well above the 3% of the population that is Jewish.

Yes, he is an "Uncle Tom" and he not "Black enough"...which translates to the fact he is not a trouble-making victim monger screaming for reparations for people who were never slaves. Racist bastards.

It isn't in terms of skin tone. I seem to remember JC Watts was denied admission to the Congressional Black Caucus.
