en. Cory Booker, D-N.J., was enraged during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Tuesday and admitted he was "seething with anger" over President Trump's alleged "shithole comments" and a Cabinet official's statement that she did not recall the incident.
I had tears of rage," Booker bellowed at Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen in reference to when he first heard of Trump's "shithole countries" remark last week. "And for you not to feel that hurt and that pain and to dismiss the questions of my colleagues, with tens of millions Americans hurting right now because they're worried about what happened in the White House ..."
"When the commander in chief speaks or refuses to speak, those words don't just dissipate like mist in the air. They fester. They become poison. They give license to bigotry and hate in our country," he said.
"When ignorance and bigotry is allied with power, it's a dangerous force in our country. Your silence and your amnesia is complicity," Booker told Nielsen.

Forget those sh*tholes, just go to Newark (Booker’s former sh*thole before he was anointed Senator by the idiots of NJ). If you go at night,you may not come out alive. I have been to a few hockey games up there. It is not a pleasant experience.

Did she keep a straight face?
I wouldn’t be able to; I’d be smirking.

What a fake, phony fraud... In my head, I heard that phrase in the voice of the late Bob Grant. I smiled.

Predictable behavior from someone representing a $hithole like New Jersey. You show me a queer, I'll show you a whack-job.

Except the democrats are always whining about “civility” actually they demand civility but they sure as heck don’t show any when preening for the cameras.
She should not, nor should anyone, be subjected to that kind of verbal abuse.

I heard this on Rush. It is just funny but also pitiful. The guy is totally off his nut.
Over acted or he is off his meds.
