Making herself Louis Farrakhan's "sweetheart" as he put it, Rep. Ilhan Omar isn't going anywhere with the apologies on her third incident of anti-semitism. Farrakhan, you recall, didn't want Omar, whom he called "sweetheart" to apologize for those, and sure enough, she's not apologizing.
What I see instead in the miasma of tweets on Twitter, is a bid to deflect attention, with she and her supporters attempting to present the "narrative" of Omar as the "real victim," calling attention to a few bad actors, some anonymous, who've made threats against her and drawn a negative reaction and lawmen looking for them. Omar's anti-Semitism, however, is being permitted to stand. Here's her completely inadequate response to criticism from a reported mentor of the new class of far-leftists in Congress, Rep. Nita Lowey of New York
Omar responded to the criticism in a series of tweets Sunday.First, she replied to a tweet from Rep. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., who wrote that "lawmakers must be able to debate" without "prejudice or bigotry."
"Our democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman! I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress," Omar tweeted.
There's no doubt about it, she wants that latest round of anti-Semitic remarks to stand.
And that raises questions about the Democratic leadership, whose House leader, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, has said nothing, and done nothing to get this repeat-shill for Jew-hate off the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Why is this woman still on it? She's made three violations now, and has stopped with the half-hearted apologies. She's not backing down, and Jewish groups are noticing. The GOP's Rep. Steve King, who made clumsy statements about white supremacy he says he never meant, got thrown off his committee assignments...

Never.
The Democrats have made common cause with the Islamists and will work to elect more of them.
Pelosi can’t get her to stay on the porch...
Pelosi is lucky they allow her on the porch
It’s like putting Libya in charge of the UN Human Rights Commission...
Nancy do the right thing? Not in my lifetime.
Sadly, you’re probably right.
Hope this link works.

Someone should send it to napa nan. Of course you couldn’t tell if she was PO’s or not by watching the facial twitching.
“Nancy do the right thing? Not in my lifetime.”
As the Democrat leaders see it, Omar’s attacks on Jews plays great with the base, which totally hates Israel and also plays well with a large segment of the base, which both hates Israel and hates Jews.
But the tradeoff is that Jewish donors pretty much finance the Democrat Party these days, so they have to be listened to.
For now, as far as I can see, the complaints from their Jewish donors are only an annoyance, and maybe some half-hearted threats (after all, what are they going to - support the Republicans that they want to burn in hell?).
But when (and if) the complaints turn into REAL MONEY, Omar will be gone in a heartbeat. That’s when Nancy and others step up.
There’s a lot of truth in that cartoon.
Lets wrap this Freepathon up, Folks!
We are starting to sink as low as the UN.
I’m more worried about politicians that hate America over one politician who hates a foreign country for whatever reason.
Amen...I'm sure she doesn't consider the USA her country.
What a stupid question.
Nancy already made that anti-Semite Omar woman apologize once. That should cover all future egregious and bigoted comments and actions. Forever.
It is disgraceful that Speaker Pelosi and her Democrat majority gave a coveted seat on the House Foreign Relations Committee to a member who has a documented history of making anti-Semitic and anti-Israel remarks. Rather than standing up against the disturbing rise of anti-Semitic rhetoric on the left, House Democrats have now just endorsed that ideology, stated Republican Rep. Steve Scalise.
Liz Cheney and Ari Fleischer joined in the condemnation, and the nation of Israel is reportedly nervous about the appointment.read more...
