Hey Mel. What do you want us to do? Invade?

[P-40]

About as lame an action as you can get...

[Ron in Acreage]

Saddam kills 400,000,and threaten us with WMDs and the dems say do nothing. Darfur has 150,000 dead and are no threat to us and the dems say invade.

District of Columbia police

My gawd, MORE racist police brutality. They are as bad as the KGB, arresting decent, honest, fervent, loyal, wunnerful advocates like Watt.

Mel is an idiot, he is not worthy for a seat in congress he as the rest of the democRat socialist of America in congress are dangerous to our security.

Another effective Black Caucus exercise.

Can't let the illegals get all the ink and TV face time.

That's right the illegals are coming to DC today to demand their rights.

ICE agents will be prominent in their absence.

The Black Caucus are so racist that I'm stunned that they aren't called on it more often.

In their warped worldview, the Sudanese people are worthy of being saved, but the Iraqi people aren't similarly worthy.

[fatnotlazy]

I'm just sick and bloody tired of this relentless guilt trip being foisted on us. It's not just Mr. Watt -- it's the mainstream media too. I decided after the tsnuami when some UN guy said the U.S. didn't do enough that I would quit feeling sorry for all these little poor pizzant countries whose citizens will not take responsibility for themselves and expect the U.S. to take care of them. The way I figure the misery these people are experiencing now is due largely to their own irresponsibility. We have our own problems. We can't be expected to wet nurse the rest of the world. Let the UN take care of the problem if it thinks it can do better.

"We will not tolerate genocide," said caucus chairman Watt. "We are saying to Sudan: `This has to stop.' "

Give the man credit for bringing attention to this disaster. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[napscoordinator]

Wow. At first I thought it was our buddy J.C. I am glad it't not. I know his name is Watts, but I read it quickly. Of course another observation is that Democrat was not in the title of the story!!!! Surprise.

[TaxRelief]

The protesters' plan was to get arrested, Watt told the Observer, and they alerted Capitol Police beforehand that they would block the embassy entrance.

Is Mel Watt having a MID-LIFE CRISIS??

NC *Ping*

Please FRmail Constitution Day, Alia OR TaxRelief if you want to be added to or removed from this North Carolina ping list.

This dim bulb has never been rated more than ten watt, max. The only way to determine if the switch is on was to strike a match and check the position of the switch.

[alrea]

Rep. Mel Watt, D-N.C., of Charlotte and six other members of the Congressional Black Caucus were arrested outside the Sudanese Embassy on Tuesday while protesting the killing and starvation that continues in that African country's Darfur region.

This is surprising action for Democrats that make a living redistributing income. They can not extract funds from Africa as easily as they can in North Carolina.

[lowbridge]

Watt arrested in D.C. protest

Who?
