Daily Caller: Democratic Illinois Rep. Danny Davis defended Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan as an “outstanding human being” on Monday.
Farrakhan is known for embracing radically anti-Semitic and anti-white views, as even the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center has acknowledged. Farrakhan’s history of racially extreme comments includes blaming Jews for the September 11 attacks, saying white people “deserve to die” and praising Adolf Hitler as a “very great man.”
A bombshell new photo emerged last week, showing former President Barack Obama smiling with Farrakhan at a Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) meeting in 2005. The journalist who took the photo said he suppressed its publication to protect Obama’s presidential aspirations.
Davis, who has been in Congress since 1997, defended Obama for meeting Farrakhan and was open about his own ties to the hate group leader in an interview with The Daily Caller on Monday.
“I personally know [Farrakhan], I’ve been to his home, done meetings, participated in events with him,” Davis told TheDC. MORE HERE
Must be using a personal definitions of what those terms mean.
Birds of a feather and all…
I am continually disgusted to know that this POS is my congressman in a ridiculously gerrymandered district that teaches all the way from the exotic west side of Chicago to the lakefront where I live. He is also an unapologetic communist. I don’t know why I even bother to vote — it’s so hopeless, but I always do.
He is. To the completely amoral people of the world.
“I personally know [David Duke], I’ve been to his home, done meetings, participated in events with him,” said no Republican.
How well would that go over with the Congressional Black Caucus if a Republican had said that about David Duke or Robert Spencer (both losers)?
Things you can do and say when you are a democrat.
I will leave it there or I will rant until my laptop breaks.
This negros are disgusting
I suppose it depends on your definition of “outstanding”….
