Dear Maxine,

[Stinky The Clown]

Watch your back. There's an ill wind blowing.

Your admirer,
Stinky

1. I agree

I smell a rat here. I think they're trying to control the message and this time they're stirring the pot for a real race war just to win an election.

2. First thought when I heard that - here comes another attack

on someone of color.

[alsame]

16. And by 'coincidence', Pat Buchanan yesterday pointed out that

Rangel, Waters and Jefferson were all members of the Congressional Black Caucus.

[rurallib]

17. Surprised Pat would notice that.

3. Smells like ACORN all over again. nt

[davidinalameda]

4. please resign so we don't lose your seat

and bring further embarrassment to the party

[cilla4progress]

6. Sarcasm?

Resign? I want to hear the facts first. It's obvious there is a 21st century "high tech lynching" going on -- brought about by the 1st Black Prez in our history. Uppity black folks. Shame that these longtime American patriots are being sacrificed on the altar of racial discrimination.

[davidinalameda]

7. no

not in the least

see you're playing the race card too

do you research on her-bet you'll find out a few things that the rest of us are aware of

[cilla4progress]

9. Why is she being targeted?

[davidinalameda]

11. because she's done some unethical things?

:shrug:

[Xicano]

10. Then everyone in congress should resign.

Not that I defend anything that any one of them shouldn't do. Its just why are you targeting Maxine and not every last member of congress? You're not jumping on the reich wing band wagon are you? Because we all know they're all crooks and liars.

I am just saying....

[davidinalameda]

12. I am on the reich wing bandwagon

because I dare to speak out against a Democrat

whatever

[cilla4progress]

14. Sorry, I agree with

Xicano. It's like where I live - oh, Christ - it's everywhere: do you really think that 50+% of criminals in America are African-American men? (Sorry - no stats handy...). Point is: huge disproportionality of convicted persons sitting in our political prisons in America are persons of color. What, there are more criminals among racial minorities?

It's called "selective enforcement." They have a NAME for it. This is news to you?

5. K&R

[suffragette]

8. Maxine's had our backs many a time.

We need to have hers.

[Blue_In_AK]

13. Maxine gets targeted

while long-time crooks such as Alaska's own Don Young, who's been under investigation since at least 2006, get not a mention.

[cilla4progress]

15. This is what I am talking about.
