WASHINGTON, D.C., November 1, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) – Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tennessee, yelled at an African-American woman today, accusing her of “ignorance,” after she testified before a Congressional committee about abortion being the “leading cause of death in the black community today.”
Star Parker, founder and president of the Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE), suggested it’s disingenuous to conflate abortion with social ills. Parker was testifying before the House Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice as it discussed legislation banning abortions on babies with beating hearts.

“Disgusting how Democrats try to turn the table when resented with facts “
CORRECTION..............Disgusting how Democrats try to turn the table when presented with facts
Wow, a Jewish Congressman shouting down a Black Women who was testifying about the destruction of her race. Oh how far we have fallen.
Cohen regularly lectures on the joys of taxation also.
He is scum.
...after she testified before a Congressional committee about abortion being the “leading cause of death in the black community today.” Star Parker, founder and president of the Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE), suggested it’s disingenuous to conflate abortion with social ills.Not quite the leading cause -- that would be Demwit Party-run city governments.
Yes, the civility that liberals demand from conservatives is plainly shown.
By RAT standards:
Yelled at a black woman = racist and sexist
Called her ignorant = racist and sexist
Demanded an apology = White supremacist
How soon will he be forced to resign?
The Ds give this ungrateful woman a lot of options and she refuse their generosity. She could
1) Get in the “oppressed black” box
2) Get in the “oppressed women” box
3) Get in the “abortion is women’s health box” (different from #2)
But she refuses to stay in a box. People like her are the reason Hillary lost. That is unacceptable and she should be yelled at. /sarc
“Cohen regularly lectures on the joys of taxation also.”
Didn’t his son get arrested a couple of years ago for some sort of criminal political activity?
And you are correct on the “scum” tag. You read his wiki and he’s simply an out and out Communist. Who knew Tennessee was a hotbed of Communist sympathizers? Redneck Commies from Memphis?
Rep. Cohen....shame shame shame.
Very bad manners.
The establishment” swamp” must be protected.
As has been said before, the most dangerous place for an African-American is in the womb.
I wonder if there’s video ? Star is a very bright woman and a quick wit . I’m sure she put him in his place .
Cohen has always been a detestable little race baiting puke.
Then, raising his voice, he continued, “And to suggest I’m disingenuous shows your ignorance or your absolute inability to deal with Congresspeople the way they should. I believe in those issues and I think they’re proper, and to say I’m disingenuous is just wrong and I expect an apology.” (emphasis added)
My, my, my...ain't that just so precious?
Thinks he’s flipping royalty.
When will poor, ignorant constituents who elect hardcore Marxists realize they remain poor and ignorant despite promises of what one UK politician famously termed ‘jam tomorrow?’
Oh, they “resent” facts, for sure.
Correction: it was Lewis Carroll.
“Cohen has always been a detestable little race baiting puke.”
As are several of his “brothers” in the Congress. Namely Chuck Schumer, Adam Shiff, and Brad Sherman. These guys are the Harvey Weinsteins of the Congress, but they are “all horn and no driveshaft!”
