Liberal RACIST; "Latinos and Whites All Look Alike to Me"
Can you imagine the nationwide media uproar if a Republican congressman
said Hispanics and whites "all look alike to me"? But this comment came
from a Democrat, so it's probably news to you.
U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Fla., apologized Thursday for her racist
remarks.
Her outburst came Wednesday during a briefing on Haiti with Florida's
congressional delegation and Assistant Secretary of State Roger
Noriega, a Mexican-American. The congresswoman, who is black, sat
across from Noriega and launched a diatribe against President Bush.
She claimed it was Republican leaders who were "racist" in their
policies toward the failed black Caribbean nation, and she called the
president's representatives "a bunch of white men."
After her rant, Noriega responded that he would relay her comments to
Secretary of State Colin Powell and National Security Adviser
Condoleezza Rice.
'Branded a White Man'
Fox News reported today that participants in the meeting said Noriega
later told Brown, "As a Mexican-American, I deeply resent being called
a racist and branded a white man."
Brown said in a pseudo-apology Thursday: "I sincerely did not mean to
offend Secretary Noriega or anyone in the room. Rather, my comments, as
they relate to 'white men,' were aimed at the policies of the Bush
administration as they pertain to Haiti, which I do consider to be
racist."
U.S. Rep. Mark Foley, a Florida Republican who organized the meeting,
called Brown's comments "disappointing."
"To sit there and browbeat this man who is a Mexican-American and call
him names, it was inappropriate," he said.

Left-wing liberals are EVERYTHING they accuse the right of being. They
are mean, vicious, hateful, greedy, cold-hearted, closed-minded,
selfish, intolerant, bigoted and racist.
Liberals HATE America!
