For months, I have struggled with a hypothetical question, a thought experiment if you will: If the enemies of the United States, such as Al Qaeda, had a political wing in the US Congress, how would their votes differ from those cast by the most liberal group in the House, namely, the Congressional Black Caucus, who are all members of the Democrat party?

Einstein was famous for his thought experiments. He would lay out the prevailing scientific theory and then set out to logically demolish it. Now the author wants to set blacks apart from other democrats. He then proceeds to list the voting practices of blacks but fails to supply the comparative voting habits of other democrats. But never mind the lack of rational analysis, because blacks are like Al Qaeda because Al Qaeda is like the blacks, so therefore the blacks are like Al Qaeda. Beware of those who lead off with their ideas as a though experiment. It really takes genius to pull it off.

First of all, I only limited my analysis to the CBC, not "the blacks". Their race is not my issue, rather, they make an issue out of it by calling themselves "black", whatever that means.

Secondly, let us debate the facts mentioned in the piece. The conclusions are something a reasonable person would draw.

Thirdly, I chose to highlight the CBC because 2 of their most prominent members, Conyers and Rangel, are in line for important Chairmanship positions should the rats take control of the House. They are 2 of the most senior Democrats in the House, and one of them would become Chairman of the Ways and Means Committee.

Through this article, I want to warn people of the consequences of letting the Democrats take control of the House.
