House Dems will take floor action to confront Ilhan Omar’s latest Israel comments

The freshman Democrat is clashing with senior lawmakers who view her remarks as anti-Semitic.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi and top Democrats will take floor action Wednesday in response to controversial remarks by Rep. Ilhan Omar about Israel, the second such rebuke of the freshman Democrat from party leaders in recent weeks.
Pelosi and other senior Democrats are drafting a resolution to address the controversy, which ballooned over the weekend following a public clash between Omar and senior Jewish lawmakers.
The resolution, which is still being finalized, comes after a backlash from top Democrats who accused Omar of anti-Semitism for referring to pro-Israel advocates’ “allegiance to a foreign country.”
Omar’s remarks are just the latest in a series of comments she's made that many of her Democratic colleagues say are blatantly anti-Semitic and must be retracted.
Democratic leaders are still debating whether to mention Omar by name in the resolution, according to multiple sources. Staffers for Pelosi and top Democrats, including House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), began drafting the text of the resolution over the weekend as the confrontation between Omar and her colleagues unfolded on Twitter.
Two of the House’s most senior Democrats — Foreign Affairs Chairman Eliot Engel and Appropriations Chairwoman Nita Lowey — called Omar out in public statements, demanding she apologize.

Why are they so shocked that the wolf they let in their henhouse wants to eat them?

A forced apology is no apology at all.
She’ll “apologize” and then just turn around and say something even more outrageous next week.

I knew the second i laid eyes on her that she would be trouble.

They are either going to break her into submission or expel her.

WHY couldn't they get a non radical? Are they too peaceful for them? I have seen non radical Arab women say that Omar is an embarrassment.

Impeach her kick her out and get another hijab/burka wearing lady in there. No one dislikes the religion, we just dislike the radical terrorist ones.
But then again second in command of the DNC is a HAMAs going radical. They don't care, they are retarded and embrace the HAMA's front CAIR.
If the R's had a skin head in there or KKK saying they hate black people what would happen? They would be expelled not a stupid resolution to make them apologize.

Here we have an actually real-life story of racism in Congress, about a serving Congressman, and CNN and Washington Post just bury the story.
WaPo shows doesn't even have it as their No. 1 racism story on the Politics Page. They lead with Democrat presidential hopefuls in Selma AL! Because, you know, democracy dies in darkness or something.

The action that would be appropriate for Omar involves a tree and a rope.
