Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia attracted criticism for using a term widely seen as a racial slur in boasting of the racial diversity those who support former President Donald Trump.

Greene, an outspoken Republican champion of Trump, made the comments at the weekend conference of the conservative Turning Point USA youth movement.

"When I walked in yesterday, I was like, what kind of people come here?" Greene said. "So I'm walking around and seeing some good people, and I see white people, Black people, brown people, yellow people."

Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight.

Never knew that song I learned in Sunday School contained a "racist trope"!

FWIW, she said, “Yellow people.” So now using skin coloring euphemisms for race is racist. If equally applied, that means we can’t call people white, black, or brown anymore either. only fair, right?

Only a fkg moron would think anything Greene said in her statement was racist. But then again, this country is now populated with a least 50 percent morons.

Business Insider is just this side of DU. Sometimes crossing to the other side.

NAACP better change its name or they will be called for using a racial slur by BusinessInsider, with Newsweek the most biased garbage on the web.

Little Tommy is really stretching. He turns a statement of welcome into a slur. Well, little Tommy, Asians are as “yellow” as whites are “white,” blacks are “black,” and Indians are “red.” Stick your AP style guide up your smelly kiester.

I don’t hear any ‘slur’.
I do see a few of her enemies looking for some kind of dirt to throw.

I think it is only 20% or less morons. At least before the 2AM poll where it will go up suddenly to 51%.

From the benediction at the inauguration of Barack Hussein Obama:

"Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around … when yellow will be mellow … when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right; that all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. January 20th 2009 Washington D.C.

Good catch. MTG is under a spotlight, and every statement she makes will be parsed and overanalyzed and twisted by the stinking little squibs in our media.
