    No.   I'm not any party so I wasn't invited.

  • I've already phoned my Congressman and thanked him for his support of the president. Fortunately, he has the good sense to recognize the difference between racism and pure stupidity and votes accordingly.

    People still don't understand what qualifies as racist.  His rant was not a good idea, I certainly agree with that. 

    You know that thing in your brain that filters which thoughts get to become spoken words...........he doesn't have one of those.

    I hope your question is literal---meaning you haven't seen or heard what Trump said.

    My Congresswoman is Ilhan Omar. I'm pretty sure she's not a Republican, but I'll check.

    From what I have witnessed in years past, a resolution such as this means nothing.  From what I read today, Pelosi has again overstepped what is even allowed in a resolution by making an assumption as to what someone else's mental process was.  In other words, they can say what they want about the president's remark but they cannot call it racist.  The House is such an embarrassment..........much more so than the president.

    Oh come on---Q & A moderators make assumptions about what people are saying all the time.

    And do you not recognize what would be actionable discrimination in an EEO complaint regarding a hostile work environment?

    I didn't make the rules for house resolutions.  Try to stay on topic.
