The media should investigate the racial views of conservative activists like the ones who descended on Washington last weekend, one liberal congresswoman said Wednesday.
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said that it's not enough for African-Americans to levy allegations of racism against the right-leaning protesters, and that the media must look into their views.
"I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed," Waters told the liberal Bill Press Radio show in a podcast. "I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers."
"What I'm looking for is the very people who carry the signs who are referring to the policies in very, very strange ways like 'Obamacare' and 'Barry Obamacare with Kennedy,'" she said. "What I've been interested in is hearing from those people that everybody's referring to -- everybody on the Mall, in the rally."
Tens of thousands of conservative activists took to the National Mall last weekend to protest the Obama administration, specifically its stance on healthcare reform. Examples of incendiary rhetoric touching on racial overtones from some protesters have emerged on blogs in the days since the rally.

Maxine Waters is an America Hating, Liberty Hating, Race baiting, dumb as a rock, a$$hole. In addition, she is a no good stinking racist. If brains were dynamite she would not even be able to blow her nose. As a southern rooster once said: “She is as sharp a bowling ball. Bowling ball that is.”
Maxine Waters is to responsible government what John Wayne Gacy was to a safe, secure neighborhood.
Maxine would have no trouble rounding up the lot of us...
for “questioning”.
Maybe the Congressional Black Caucus should have to answer
some questions eh.
The race card is "played". Nobody w/ any sense buys that crap anymore.
Likewise the msm is "played" as demonstrated by the fool that wrote this article referring to the "tens of thousands" attending last weekend's rally. Everyone that gets their news from a source other than the msm knows there were more than 1 million there.
Their spin merely exposes them as the tools they are.
As usual, a liberal wants to actually DO all the paranoid stuff they accused Bush of doing for eight years.

Dear Director Berle:
When leftists like Maxine Waters call small-government conservatives “Teabaggers,” does it prove their homophobia?
It seems that the Log Cabin Republicans could make an excellent public splash in defense of fiscal conservatism by going on the attack against this leftist hate speech.
Once upon a time, I had an excellent interaction with a local LCR guy in Seattle when we prepared to protest Castro’s possible attendance at the WTO. We had a confirmed crowd of over 100 ready to protest. Good fun!
Anyhow, if you find the left’s label offensive as it implies something is horribly wrong with homosexuality, you may wish to call them to account.
Thanks!
My views are none of her damn business... This has NOTHING to do with race or ethnicity. It has EVERYTHING to do with halting the Mad March to Marxism being implemented by the 0bamunists and the anointed one. It has EVERYTHING to do with saving the Nation.
Maxine Waters and “great idea” don’t usually apperar in the same sentence
I think it is important to note that when used in this context, the term “teabagger” refers to a disgustingly filthy sexual sct, and is every bit as derogatory as you can imagine when used by people on the Left like Maxine Waters and her ilk.
I’m so glad Bill Press is no longer on the WMAL morning show; he’s never been anything but a stupid moonbat.
How easily they forget it was DUmocrats throwing oreos at Micheal Steel, it was DUmocrats who slandered black republicans such as Alan Keyes, Clarence Thomas, Condi Rice and Gollum Powell (untill he showed his true colors and jumped on the Obamatron express).
Most DUmocrats weren’t voting for DUh-bama because he was black...they voted for him for the empty promises of “free” gimmies:

The Democrat party has always been the party of slavery, sedition, subversion, socialism and surrender.
People’s “views” are their First Amendment right, you beach. You have NO right to “probe” what people think.
Do your job for once, and let’s PROBE ACORN et al. You and your ilk have a duty to watch over tax dollars. Spend your time on things that matter, like protecting taxpayers, rather than trying to childishly trying to set them up for exercising their legitimate Constitutional rights.
Good Lord, where do these people come from?
I only said “racist” things to the interviewer because I was intimidated, I made stuff up to “go along” with the reporter. Honest.
she was welocome to come for herself.
So, she'll believe us if we tell her we aren't racists? Yeah, right. /sarc.
“It doesn’t matter what I say to you, the Racers will call me a racist anyway.”
I smell fear ...
Cracking ACORN leads to Mad Maxine.
Did you make a racist comment about my post?
Maxine’s level of hatred is hard to match by other race baiters. She literally spews hate and venom toward conservatives.
