Liz Cheney calls on GOP to do more to reject "white supremacy"
CBS News via Yahoo ^ | February 23rd, 2021 | Aaron Navarro

Liz Cheney, the third ranking House Republican, on Tuesday called on the Republican party to "make clear we aren't the party of white supremacy." Cheney's remarks came during an event hosted by the Reagan Institute.

"It's very important for us to ignore the temptation to look away," Cheney said. "And it's very important, especially for us as Republicans, to make clear that we aren't the party of white supremacy.

"You certainly saw anti-Semitism. You saw the symbols of Holocaust denial... you saw a Confederate flag being carried through the rotunda," she said, referencing the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol. "We, as Republicans in particular, have a duty and an obligation to stand against that, to stand against insurrection."

Cheney has been one of the most vocal Republicans to speak out against the insurrection and what she sees as former President Trump's role in inciting the events of January 6. Cheney on Tuesday voiced support for the creation of a "9/11 type commission" to investigate the assault. She said part of the commission's mandate should be to take a "clear eyed look" into Mr. Trump's and his allies' false allegations of a widespread fraud and a "stolen" election leading up to the attacks.

She needs to step down to show she’s serious about rejecting White supremacy.

No! She should kill herself to help reduce the white population!

“White Supremacy” means Western Civilization.

And White Supremacy means that white people are the most numerous and influential people in nations created and built by white people. And we can't have that.

A Derp Stater spewing the Derp State lies and narrative as a top leader in the GOP.

This party needs an exorcism of this evil.

“Reject Liz Cheney. “White Supremacy” isn’t the problem.”

It goes even deeper than that. I think that Lez Cheney should seek help from a neuro specialist or qualified dentist about her large cranial cavity that has abcessed.

She must be removed.

She is nothing but a virtue signaler. It would be one thing if she was saying things she sincerely believed that we disagree with, but this kind of cliché stuff is just for show.

She has zero talent or leadership ability and is only there because of her family name.

I don’t buy into automatically disqualifying someone simply because their family was also in politics - they should be judged on their own merits as individuals like anyone else. She has shown she doesn’t have the qualifications.

When the Cheney’s send all of their ill-gotten money back to the treasury, then we can agree that this hypocritical [expletive deleted] is doing something about “white privilege” which looks just like the kind of crony privilege enjoyed by cozy insiders in every corrupt 3rd world shithole in the world, including the 3rd world corruptocracy of Washington DC.

Does she have any qualifications other than her last name? Time has long since passed to get her out of office. What kind of RINO cabal would allow this dimwit to have a leadership office?
