NO, the problem we have is that entire racial groups think that they should be above the law and free to do as they please.

Laws apply to everyone; White, Black, Asian, Hispanic, EVERYONE.
This is a nation founded on the principles of rule of law ... not Black people above the law because of something that took place long before anyone alive today was in Congress.

Want to live in a one party state ruled by Black supremacists? Move to Zimbabwe.

It will be interesting to see how the Fortune article is received. Looks like a kangaroo court from the git go.

Just what are the documents Holder will not give Issa. Our brilliant media does not tell us that. Is it really Grand Jury testimony?

Shocker! Lol is there any doubt they're racist? Race is more important to them than anything else. They should be fired
Only the foolish consider the CBC racist... They've done more to fight racism then probably any other group of legislators...

I'm Shabazz310 and I approve of this message...

WASHINGTON -- The Congressional Black Caucus will walk out of the House chamber during Thursday's vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress.

Caucus leaders circulated a letter to Democratic lawmakers on Wednesday night urging them to leave the House floor when the vote comes up. The letter, which was obtained by The Huffington Post, was sent to members of the Hispanic Caucus, the Progressive Caucus, the Asian Pacific American Caucus and others.

"We call upon all members of Congress to stand with us during a press conference on the Capitol Building steps during this appalling series of votes to discuss our nation's most significant priority--creating jobs," reads the letter. "At this critically important time in our nation, we must work as colleagues rather than political enemies."

Let that one sink in. If the CLINTONS had to defend themselves from charges of racism in a campaign.....lol....you get the point.
Deflection as usual mathguy?

How can you be the math guy and not be able to put two and two together?

Republicans walk out in protest = not racist

CBC walks out in protest = racist

Do you not see the different rule of thumb here? Do you not see the ridiculous agenda to label black people racist here? Seriously I don't know what experiences in life you people have been throw to think like this...

Republicans Walk out of House in Protest

1. I don't feel that the walkout is racist, never said it was. In fact, I gave examples of how easily claims of "racism" are thrown around and described the CBC's actions as political. So how the heck is this a deflection since I'm essentially defending the CBC's actions as politics and non-racist.

2. What do you mean "you people".

3. For someone as comfortable as you are throwing charges of racism at every perceived slight, you sure do seem sensitive when on the receiving end. You can't have it both ways and in an increasingly ethnic society....get used to it. You will see more and more charges of racism leveled at previously insulated groups as the color lines continue to blur.

When they say what this sentence says it becomes apparent that they are altogether racist in ever way.

" The letter is being circulated among the Black, Hispanic, Asian and Progressive caucuses, among other.
