Nancy Pelosi: Illhan Omar, call your office
Washington Examiner ^ | | April 12, 2019 01:33 PM | Susan Ferrechio

Pelosi said she wants to speak to Omar about her tweet questioning then-President George W. Bush’s New York City address to rescue workers at ground zero, days after the worst terror attack in American history, in which he declared, "And the people — and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!”

Here's who could replace Kirstjen Nielsen at Homeland Security Watch Full Screen to Skip Ads Omar tweeted “Was Bush downplaying the terrorist attack? What if he was a Muslim,” under the Bush quote delivered at ground zero.

The tweet quickly drew criticism and came just a day after Omar was the subject of a New York Post cover depicting the flaming twin towers and the lawmaker's comments before a Muslim advocacy group that “some people did something,” on Sept. 11, 2001. The comment was widely seen as downplaying the significant and horror of a tragedy that claimed nearly 3,000 lives. Omar claimed that in the aftermath of 9/11, Muslim civil liberties had suffered.

Pelosi has yet to comment on Omar’s recent comments and tweets, but plans to respond at some point, she said.

“As is my custom with my colleagues, I call them in before I call them out,” Pelosi said. “I’ll have some comment after I do speak to her.”

ANOTHER Trump slogan in 2020, and EVERY R’s slogan if they were smart. Trump is, Rs aren’t.

SOMEBODY DID SOMETHING.

The Democrats are going to be looking to get rid of this idiot before she sinks their boat.

Correct title should be:

Nancy Pelosi: Illhan Omar, call your office

And if we referred to what happened in New Zealand as “someone did something”, how well would she take that? What a hypocritical twit.

What’s weird is that the Dems don’t seem to think that they have a problem.

Now, I’m no fan of the Democrats, but I think that the far-left cart is getting way ahead of the center-right rank-and-file. And they are doing so in a really ugly way.

That can’t be good for the party, especially going into a general election year.

Yet: No one is saying anything.

Can we stop calling her AOC, and opt for something more accurate like Short Bus?

She was rescued from terrorism in Somalia by the United States and this the thanks we get from her. And she’s not the only one.

“Was Bush downplaying the terrorist attack? What if he was a Muslim,”

What in the hell is her point? When I was in school, I always did pretty well on reading comprehension. Logic & reasoning, too. But perhaps in my advancing age, I've lost a step. Would some kind person please explain to me the intended meaning of Omar's comments? Downplaying the terrorist attack? What if Bush was a Muslim? I just don't get it. At all.

gosh, and here we thought AOC was the green herpes of Dem politics, but the Omar anti-Semite infection makes the AOC sore look like a tiny mosquito bite by comparison ...

“...comments is ‘incomprehensible,’ Fmr. DNC chairman says”

And I see that quote nowhere in the article.

“CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties,” and then she went on to urge Muslim Americans to “raise hell” and “make people uncomfortable.”

These 2 seem to be “misspeaking” a lot lately.
