Did the
little racist congresswomen Ilhan Omar go a little too overboard by criticizing
the socialist elitist, Barrack Hussein Obama? She may have, except, just like
the republicans, the democrats in the house under the great leadership Nancy no
balls Pelosi will do nothing for fear of offending the now radical socialist
base of the socialist party. Do nothing
or cower in a corner is out of the republican playbook. As long as the idiot and Omar as well as the
other young communist in the House continue to push a socialist agenda that the
base supports, nothing will be done. But
anyway, this is what the little anti-Semitic, anti-Christian and pro Sharia law
jerk said.
Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar ripped former President Barack
Obama in an interview published Friday, belittling his “pretty face” and saying
his agenda of hope and change was an illusion.
She cited the “caging of kids” at the Mexican border and
the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch — and argued that
he wasn’t much different from President Trump
“We can’t be only upset with Trump,” the freshman
firebrand told Politico
Magazine.
“His policies are bad, but many of the people who came
before him also had really bad policies. They just were more polished than he
was,” Omar said.
“And that’s not what we should be looking for anymore. We
don’t want anybody to get away with murder because they are polished. We want
to recognize the actual policies that are behind the pretty face and the
smile.”
The explosive comments about a man lionized by Democrats
were only the latest in a series of incendiary statements that have put the
national spotlight on Omar, a Somali-American Muslim who spent four years in a
refugee camp in Kenya after her family fled the violence in their homeland.
In February, her second month in office, Omar responded
to a tweet about House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy’s threats to punish her and
another congresswoman for criticizing Israel.
“It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” she tweeted, a line
from a Puff Daddy song about $100 bills.
Critics said Omar was perpetuating a hateful trope about
Jewish Americans and money.
She recently got into another hot mess after another
tweet was slammed by some as anti-Semitic.
The ensuing firestorm rattled the Democratic House
majority and spurred days of recriminations and tense negotiations that led to
the compromise package condemning bigotry that sailed through the House on
Thursday, with only 23 Republicans voting against it.
The party’s leftist wing, led by New York Rep. Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez, said Omar was being singled out when others at the highest
levels of government had said things that were worse and escaped censure.
More moderate Dems, including Jewish lawmakers such as
New York’s Eliot Engle, wanted the resolution to focus only on anti-Semitism as
a direct response to Omar’s comment, which questioned the loyalty of
politicians who accept donations from pro-Israel PACs and organizations.
Ultimately, after days of chaos and acrimony, House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi was able to unite her caucus — and box in a big majority
of Republicans — to back the compromise.
And Omar — along with Rashida Tlaib of Michigan the first
Muslim women in Congress — said she’s willing to keep speaking out and be a
Republican punching bag if it helps advance her agenda, a prospect that likely
makes many of her fellow Democrats cringe.
