I seems that Omar is a very freshman congresswoman that came to Washington will a naive messianic zeal to overturn the wagon. Governing with a chip on your shoulder is not going to get her far. I suspect she has frightened moderate Democrats and provided the right with political ammunition. If she continues on her high-minded quest and personal mission (whatever it may be), she will be sidelined as a danger to the party. Omar, and other freshman, should steal a page from Hillary Clinton's approach to the Congress. During Hilary's first couple of years in the Senate she kept her head down, worked hard at doing her job, and made friends across the aisle.
Dismissing the 9/11 attacks by radical Islamic terrorists as "Islamophobia" is just as bad as what Omar did. Maybe you can call it terrorismophobia or muderophobia, but no one is afraid of Islam as a religion, disgusting as it may be as a religion. People fear the consequences of radicals flying planes into buildings and 9/11 proved that fear to be a genuine possibility.
Omar was elected in a very heavily gerrymandered district comprised of an overwhelming number of Somali's plus a lot of very liberal people burdened by their fabricated "white guilt". If the democrat party wants to closet her they will have to do it among their committee selections and hopefully, the alt-leftie media will continue to shove a microphone in her face as she loves the attention that brings. She is a great booster for potential Republican voters. Bless her little heart.
Given you are deliberately ignoring what I have said, you clearly aren't able to make relevant argument. God bless and goodbye
Talk about ridiculous comments, when was the last time far right extremists formed a terrorist group? When was the last time they flew planes into buildings? Deflecting blame from the leftists new base of Islamic fundamentalists to some imaginary right wing extremists is asinine.
There's no such thing as Islamophobia, but your defense of radical Islam fails catastrophically by making up imaginary quotes from imaginary "right wingers".
Just imagine if a bunch of Brits went to Saudi Arabia and demanded a multicultural acceptance of English traditions and common laws. Imagine they were setting up enclaves and expanding in population. Would there not also be a push back from the Islamists? Of course this will never happen as Saudi Arabia is a closed society, unlike multicultural UK.
You know that inside the United States leftist propagandists and their RINO allies are saying that rightwing terrorism is an upward trend. Saying doesn't make it so and nor does presenting obviously cooked statistics.
She didn't say "9/11 was merely some peop.....". The right is trying to spin a "figure of speech" into a crime. If she had elaborated with precision that would satisfy the right, it would have detracted from the point she was making. But hey, we know that the right will (and must) spin everything it can into a crime by Democrats and the left and liberals and centrists and true conservatives.
Yeah, and we know the RW extremists are isolating themselves very nicely. Anyone, whether democrat, republican, conservative, or far right who disagrees with them are "the enemy". They've abandoned patriotism and true conservatism to serve their chosen dictator-wannabee. As Trump demonstrates his authoritarian compulsions more and more, right wing terrorism is increasing.
It is the Left wing that hates. They are the VERY angry, crazy ones. Just look at any college campus or Congress or MSM. They should get over the fact that they lost and just MOVE ON....It's hideous to keep acting like spoiled brats. They have zero credibility.
So what? Christians make up over 70% of the US population. Muslims make up 1% of the US population. Far more likely that a muslim you run across will commit an act of terrorism as than a Christian.
Weird response! You don't care that right wing terrorism is the most likely and the problem over time has grown?
No one cares. Most folks know what you are spouting is propaganda. It is a bunch of lies. Your whataboutism has nothing to do with the thread.
I'm sure the victims and their families of right wing terrorism would have a different point of view. It's a shame that you people do not take terrorism more seriously.
