The "Rebuke" is now shown to be such a joke.
It makes Wilson out to be even more of a hero. Pelosi wanted to drop this issue like a hot potato and "move on to Health Care." The blacks in Congress would not let her!
Always the victim
The democrats are controled by the black caucus through intimidation and the entire house is controlled by extension.
Welcome to America where a minority group of petty thugs run the show.
We will probably have idiots like Mr. Johnson forever intimidating people with this racist crap unless "this kind of attitude" is not rebuked.
Congressional racists identified and they weren’t the one rebuked.
"I'm sorry I had a fight in the middle of your Black Panther party."
White Caucus: "Repent, Repent"
Conservative Caucus: " Thanks for giving Joe Wilson 1.3 million dollars America!"
Concerns? Give me a break. This was petty political theater.
But they have failed to call for action against Charlie Rangel for lying on disclosure forms.
Gotcha.
I can’t think of a single black member of congress who isn’t a radical leftist or outright communist. Damn near every one of them is allied with groups and individuals who seek the destruction of the U.S.
But, when the same disrespect was shown to Bush, they could ignore it.
Wilson kind of winked at that element of society that has shown disrespect to Obama because of his race, Georgia Democrat Hank Johnson said yesterday. He said its OK.
And who was Pete Stark (D-CA) winking at when he did the same thing?
Laura Richardson...isn’t she the one that defaulted on her mortgage while making $170,000 a year as a Congressthang? Michelle Malkin was all over her for a while on her incredible hypocrisy during the “housing bailout” fight last year.

It is a joke! However, look at this — some of the Dems in the House did NOT want to go along with this, but they all joined forces when the Black Caucus put up a stink. Liberal guilt? It’s their voters, holding them by the nards.
Fast-forward: the Dems vote in the Health Care bill, regardless of HALF the country, because the Black Caucus screams and demands it. And the libs are beholden to them.
oh, so very ugly.
That is actually a great picture.
Please keep it up people are fed up with the whining crying and Theft of the country’s wealth by the ever growing racist welfare sector.
Once again, Whitey bends over for the Race that can do no wrong.
HAVANA Signaling its willingness to discuss improved relations with the Obama administration, Cuba on Tuesday granted three visiting members of the Congressional Black Caucus the first meeting with Fidel Castro by American officials since he fell ill in 2006.
[snip]
"Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., current head of the 42-member caucus, said at a news conference in Washington after the group's return that lawmakers met for nearly two hours with Fidel Castro and found him 'very healthy, very energetic, very clear thinking.'
Rep. Laura Richardson, D-Calif., who also met Fidel with Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., said Castro 'looked directly into our eyes' and asked how Cuba could help Obama in his efforts to change the course of U.S. foreign policy. Richardson said she had the impression that 82-year-old Fidel wants to see changes in U.S.-Cuba relations in his lifetime.
Raul Castro, added Lee, 'said everything was on the table.' ..."

PROFILE: BOBBY RUSH:
* Democratic Member of Congress
* Member of the radical Progressive Caucus
* In 1968, went AWOL from the U.S. Army
* Co-founder of the Illinois branch of the Black Panther Party
* In 1969, served six months in jail for an illegal weapons conviction
* Advocates reparations for African Americans
"Bobby Rush has described his involvement with the Black Panthers as part of his maturation process, as a youthful indiscretion that he abandoned immediately after Hampton's death. He described his role mostly as running the Black Panther Party's Free Breakfast for Children program.
But Bobby Rush served six months in jail for a 1969 illegal weapons conviction and, even after his release, in 1971 his comrades were still describing him as the 'Deputy Minister of Defense' for the Black Panther Party in Illinois. In 1992 the socialist magazine In These Times praised fledgling congressional candidate Rush, writing that he 'has continued to support progressive policies and has never disavowed his Panther past...."

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROS
"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo.
Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.
The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."
To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Barbara Lee
Member of the U.S. House of
Representatives from California's
9th district Incumbent
Assumed office April 7, 1998
From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
PROFILE: BARBARA LEE:
* Democratic Member of Congress, co-chair of the radical Progressive Caucus
* Former agent of Black Panther leader and convicted killer Huey Newton
* Collaborated with the Marxist dictatorship of Grenada to deceive the U.S. Congress
* Voted against using military force against terrorists following the 9/11 attacks
* Has consistently voted against U.S.-led military action, regardless of circumstances
"While attending Mills College in Oakland, California during the early 1970s, Lee worked as a volunteer for the local chapter of the Black Panther Party's Community Learning Center. She also worked on the 1973 Oakland mayoral campaign of Panther co-founder Bobby Seale, and she served as a confidential aide to the Panthers' 'Minister of Defense,' Huey Newton."
[snip]
In the 1980s she worked as a staff member for the radical Left Democratic congressman Ron Dellums, who headed the House Sub-Committee on Military Installations. Aided by Lee, Dellums used his authority to impede U.S. foreign policy with regard to the Communist dictatorship of Grenada, where many Soviet bloc advisers, in conjunction with Cuban military personnel, were busy constructing an airport capable of accommodating Soviet military planes. As the ranking Democrat member of the House Armed Services Committee, Dellums traveled to Grenada to conduct an on-site "fact-finding" tour and on his return whitewashed the Grenadian dictatorship:
"Based on my personal observations, discussion and analysis of the new international airport under construction in Grenada, it is my conclusion that this project is specifically now and has always been for the purpose of economic development and is not for military use . It is my thought that it is absurd, patronizing and totally unwarranted for the United States Government to charge that this airport poses a military threat to the United States' national security."
What legislators did not know at the time was that Dellums, before testifying to Congress, had previously submitted, through his emissary Barabara Lee, his prepared report (about the airport) to Grenada's Communist dictator for the latter's approval and/or revisions. The minutes of a Politburo meeting attended by that dictator and his military command stated:
"Barbara Lee is here presently and has brought with her a report on the international airport that was done by Ron Dellums. They have requested that we look at the document and suggest any changes we deem necessary. They will be willing to make the changes."
When Dellums retired in 1998, Barbara Lee won his vacated congressional seat and has held it ever since.
In June 2002, Lee joined 30 fellow members of Congress (including such notables as John Conyers, Jesse Jackson, Jr., Cynthia McKinney, and Maxine Waters) in filing a federal lawsuit to block President George W. Bush from withdrawing the U.S. from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty which had been signed in 1972 with the old Soviet Union. The lawsuit named Bush, Secretary of State Colin Powell, and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld as defendants.

Author and political commentator David Horowitz has called Lee "an anti-American communist who supports America's enemies and has actively collaborated with them in their war against America."

If the Black caucus loses the race issue they are out of business. Why is there a black caucus? There is no Jewish caucus or White caucus in the Congress.
