Omar is the victim of the soft bigotry of low expectations. She’s being infantilized and held to a very low standard despite being one of the most powerful people in the country now.
It’s actually not at all difficult to criticize Israel without falling back on tropes of Jews being conspiratorial, controlling US policy…
I think the big issue is that Israel is a bit like black-on-black/inner city crime for blacks, in that non-members are often obsessed with it, frame it in ways that are obviously playing on racial stereotypes, and pretend that the in-group just doesn’t want to talk about it. Another example would be the white…
Really, you come back with whataboutery?
“Calling her anti-Semitic is just a way to silence criticism. Also, the people who criticize her are Islamophobic.”
Which is it?
Bullet holes marred the south wall. He didn’t know why, and chalks it up to some kids partying too hard nearby.
Are you kidding? His Kid Rock anthology is worth so much more in his pile of shit right wing redneck town
Probably, but at least he’ll have done it all for the nookie.
Meh, a resolution condemning King passed the House 424-1, despite what this article will have you believe. The only No vote being a Dem who wanted to censure King instead.

I am on board for anything Neveldine and Taylor are at the helm of. The Crank movies are absolutely fantastic. I think I heard they are no longer directing together, I need to IMDB them to see what they have put out solo.
It’s the “dog whistle” culture which bloomed under Democrats upon the election of Trump. I don’t like it. But, the political game is now about intent...and her intent though not stated explicitly could be found in her dog whistle. That’s where we are, so from that POV, I do criticize her.
The confederate flag is important to a lot of people’s sense of identity, but that doesn’t make it impervious to criticism. Israel is important, and plays a key role that is vital to American interests in the region, but that does NOT make it wrong or inappropriate to call it out for its bullshit. As a Jew that cares…
Right. You just have to understand that when conservatives say, “politically correct,” what they mean is, “a thing I disagree with.”

So stupid he thinks he’s smart. Ah well.
It’s classic disingenuous concern trolling.
I hear what you’re saying. A couple of things:
