The upcoming ethics trial of Representative Maxine Waters (D-Calif) has irked members of the Congressional Black Caucus. Waters is accused of improperly using her position in Congress to aid a bank in which her husband is a substantial shareholder.
A Congressperson is supposed to help her constituents, Representative Barbara Lee (D-Calif) argued. Her husband is one of her constituents. So why shouldnt she have helped him?
Lee contrasted the treatment of Waters with that of Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn) and Representative Barney Frank (D-Mass). These white boys bent over backwards, pulled strings, and bent the rules to help their pals on Wall Street, Lee said. Are they up on charges? No. They skate and get a bill named after them.
Waters echoed Lees assessment attributing the discrepancy in treatment to racism, pure racism.

It wouldn’t be because she’s black and no other reason would it? criminals beget criminals
This is fun.
Those “white boys” Dodd and Frank.
Bawwney Fruank “...bent over backwards?” Say it ain’t so!
This Rangel and Waters stuff is all a SET-UP to paint their Republican counterparts as racists. Stay tuned.
“Hey look! She has that same dark tint to her skin! Let’s absolve her of crimes!!!”
It is kinda mysterious why they did not bring charges against Frank.
Who gives a whit what the Black Caucus says?
Really can't disagree with Barbara Lee on this point; but then I've always known the Democrats were the party of the racists plantation owners and the members of the Congressional Black Caucus are nothing more than 'house negroes'. They are useful during elections, but get sent back outside once the election is over.
Nothing Rangle or Waters did is anything close to as bad as Barney Frank and Chris Dodd in damage to the nation.
I know this is a SATIRE ARTICLE, but it brings up an important point.
The issue for WATERS is not that she got money for her husband’s bank, but that SHE DID NOT DISCLOSE THIS INFO when she did it.
Had she done so, there would not be an issue.
Which you aided and abetted, scumbag.
This Rangel and Waters stuff is all a SET-UP to paint their Republican counterparts as racists. Stay tuned.
That ain’t flying much anymore. hussein obamar has already flushed the white guilt out of a lot of people.
People are sick of the race card at every turn. They’re sick of quotas. They’re sick of PC BS. They want good jobs and a stable America.
Obama and the democrats aren’t delivering. In fact, they’re bringing us closer and closer to collapse.

Heh heh ... funny ... in a nauseating sort of way ... but truth is, Barbara Boxer has probably asked that very same question, hasn’t she?
Expected...... =.=
Wow, John, you got me completely on this one. Looks like just about everyone was taken too. To be fair, Waters is such a wacko I could believe that she said anything.
The backlash against this assault on reason is going to be epic. And horrible for those perpetrating the fraud.
Do I smell blackmail? I bet Waters and Regal have a lot dirt on Country Wide Dodd and Freddi/Fannie Frank.
