Cory Booker makes himself look the fool, again (exposed his bigoted ignorance)
NYPOST.COM ^ | Feb 6, 2020 | NY Post Editorial Board

Sen. Cory Booker (DEM-NJ) went after Pres Trump's judicial nominee, Neomi Rao, with the clear suspicion that she’s some kind of religious bigot: “Have you ever had an LGBTQ law clerk?” Her reply exposed Booker’s total lack of preparation: “I have not been a judge, so I don’t have any law clerks.”

He resorted to asking if anyone in her employ is LGBTQ — and Rao humiliated him again: “I don’t know the sexual orientation of my staff. I take people as they come, irrespective of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation.”

But Booker wouldn’t let go: “Are gay relationships in your opinion immoral?” She started to answer: “I’m not sure of the relevance of that,” and he interrupted: “I think it’s relevant to your opinion if you think African-American relationships are immoral, do you think gay relationships are immoral?”

Huh? Immoral African-American relationships?

Rao gave up trying to make sense of his questions and said, “No, I do not.”Still, Booker persisted: “Do you believe they are a sin?” (Not immoral, mind you, but a sin? Really?)

Rao finally explained: “Whatever my personal views are on the subject, I would faithfully follow the precedent of the Supreme Court.” In fact, Rao is about as far as you get from the Religious Right: She was raised in an immigrant family of Zoroastrian tradition, and converted to Judaism when she got married.

I wonder if anyone will ever expose the fact that as Mayor of Newark, he lived in NYC and left Newark to creep toward something like a real life version of Manhattan in, Escape from New York.

The new breed RAT . . . AOC, Booker, Harris, etc., are comic relief in my minds eye.

Booker came out yesterday gushing over the Green New Deal. That says it all about his intelligence and fitness for any office.

He has the correct shade to get a preponderance of the bruthas who usually don’t vote ( ‘cept for 08 and 12) back to the polls in 2020. Of course he probably wouldn’t get the moderate sympathy vote like the Kenyan did.

I posted in another thread that yesterday “AOC” was on the news talking about this, and how it would address racial disparities. Why wouldn’t Booker be on board? It is reparations by another name, unrelated to the environment, and now apparently includes not just blacks, but the spoils of the Spanish-American War on Puerto Rico as well.

In Newark Booker was mocked by his black opponent (Sharpe James) as being “white” and “Jewish”; he won their second bout by basically forming a coalition outside of the black power structure (James’ base). Blacks in Newark weren’t big supporters of his, he was to be the face of the new Newark re-settled by white people (and that never happened).

NJ is roughly 13% black; he isn’t one of our senators because of black support, but because of white support. Like Obama, he is put there to do his white $ponsors’ bidding - and he will.

My prediction;

He and occasionally conscious will have an affair and give birth to a new species of stupid.

Booker sure seems fixated on gayness. Almost an obsession.

He is the sad result of gerrymandering and the ghetto-ization of our cities. That he sits in the US Senate is a disgrace upon us all.

Maybe Booker played too much football and is suffering from a permanent concussion. This is the least offensive excuse that I can concoct for his constant very public stupidity.

Cory Booker makes himself look the fool, again (exposed his bigoted ignorance)

NOT TRUE!

To those who were stupid enough to vote for him, nothing has changed. No matter what excrement dribbles out of his mouth the Democrat base which consists largely of envious people who are too lazy to work, feel too entitled to accept that lack of working leads to lack of funds, and too lazy to steal for themselves but want the government to do it for them will support him.

We all think that the Cortez nitwit makes a fool out of herself every time she opens her militantly ignorant mouth, but the morons who voted for her don't see it that way. She's smarter than they are (still pretty stupid) so they accept what she says as gospel.

Leftists cannot be reasoned with. They cannot be bargained with. It's their way (i.e. give them everything you worked for your entire life) or eventually be killed. The only counter to them is to destroy their power. Trump was a good first step, but there is a long way to go.

Maybe the reason I detest Cory Booker and don’t think he’s charismatic at all is because I’m not from New Jersey? In fact, I have trouble relating to most, if not all Northeast politicians: Yankees, particularly Democrats. They’re like foreigners to me. Their view of America is a polar opposite of mine, just like their cramped city life styles and modes of transportation.

I can’t see Booker’s candidacy going anywhere ... I mean, what’s appealing about him? Certainly not his intellect or his fresh ideas.
