Full headline: Monumental hypocrisy: Steve King gets slapped down over racial misquote by same Congress that tolerates race-based caucuses

Based on Congress’ historic low approval rating, you’ll not likely find many Americans who have much faith in the Legislative Branch doing the right things most of the time.

Or even some of the time.

Case in point: While pretending to care about furloughed federal workers who have now missed paychecks, claiming their jobs are all-important to the proper function of the country, lawmakers can’t and won’t come together with the president of the United States and work out a deal that gets opens up shuttered federal agencies, gets those workers back on the job and funds legitimate national priorities like border security.

That kind of behavior doesn’t inspire much confidence among the American people. Or support.

This should put in focus and end Black and Hispanic caucuses, chambers of commerce, and so forth. If you can’t say white, then none of these should likewise be acceptable.

If you are a Republican with a brain and give an interview to the NY Times, what do you expect?

I doubt he expected to be excoriated by freepers, but here you are.

No one dares to utter the name Robert Byrd, do they? Didn’t they sit along side him for years with nary a peep about his affiliation with the KKK? I just don’t get it but there are sure a lot of writers lately who are putting things into perspective for us - things we didn’t want to admit to ourselves but we’re being used. Tucker Carlson and Charlie Daniels (on today’s thread) for two and there are many others who can paint the picture that has been there all along and we didn’t WANT to see it for what it was. DC is rotten to the core! I sure don’t like believing that I’ve lived in a lie for over 80 years!

I’d wager that this country’s original real Puritans, as judgmental and punitive as they were themselves, would be terrified to live in today’s American culture.....

How many Republicans have to get screwed by a Times or Post reporter before they learn?

I’m sick if Republicans who offer themselves up to the MSM on a silver platter. And yes I am excoriating them.

The 1st amendment prohibits the government from punishing us for things we say.

What they’re doing is unConstitutional
