After days of Democratic hand-wringing, House votes to condemn hate speech

The House on Thursday passed a resolution condemning most imaginable forms of hate speech and bigotry following an intense struggle among Democrats over how to condemn a string of anti-Semitic remarks from a lawmaker.
The watered-down resolution started as a way to respond to Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who was accused of writing anti-Semitic tweets and publicly feuding with a Jewish Democrat, Rep. Nita Lowey of New York, on Twitter.
Omar was not named in the final version of the seven-page resolution, but Republican and Democratic lawmakers nonetheless called out her pattern of anti-Semitic tweets that have created a bipartisan furor on Capitol Hill and tortured Democrats as they struggled to find a way to respond.

This bill was the most useless waste of time since Abraham Lincoln appointed Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the Supreme Court.

she should be forced to resign! Its hateful, racist and it would not be tolerated by a Republican and should not be tolerated by a Democrat. What she is did is wrong. Now resign or force her to and by the way. the Virginia racists have not resigned and now not a word about it in the media.

Proof is when they condemn Farrakhan and their other supporters along with the NY so-called Reverend AL Sharpton the racist tax evader. The Dems have to condemn MSM, MSMBC and CNN. All of these fall under this resolution.
