Dem Representatives Silent on Racism

Several Democratic Lawmakers have been called on to resign after the have chosen to keep silent after video of Farrakhan on a racist rant against Jews. 

The Democrats have ties to and support Farrakhan, but thus far have chosen to be silent.  The normally front and center Maxine Waters of California usually has absolutely no problem attacking the President and the Republicans claiming racism and white supremacy.  But has chosen to keep quiet on this.

FOX News:

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan has answered those who denounced as anti-Semitic his recent "Jews are my enemy" quote with another broadside, this time tweeting a video clip where he says "The Jews have control over those areas of government" - in referring to the FBI.

The clip featuring the latest remark was posted to Farrakhan's official Twitter account on March 7, well after the controversy erupted over the remarks made earlier, at a Chicago event on Feb. 25. Those comments brought new attention to Farrakhan's links with seven members of the Congressional Black Congress, as well as to Women's March co-president Tamika Mallory, who attended the Farrakhan event, and posted a photo of herself with Farrakhan on her Instagram feed after the speech. 

The members called on to resign were the subject of a story in The Daily Caller, which reported a review of videos, photographs and other documents revealed the lawmakers have had ties to Farrakhan. They are Reps. Keith Ellison of Minnesota, Maxine Waters of California, Danny Davis of Illinois, Al Green of Texas, Barbara Lee of California, Andre Carson of Indiana, and Gregory Meeks of New York.

Maxine Waters has always been way out of the norm and really is only a leader of the voices in her head.  Most rational people consider her so far out that they completely ignore her comments.  But if your going to stand for something you probably should stand for it all the time and not only when it suits you.
