All seven probes into wrong doing in the House of Representatives are focused on black represenatives.

One African American representative said"Is there concern whether someone is trying to set up (Congressional Black Caucus) members? Yeah, there is....It looks as if there is somebody out there who understands what the rules (are) and sends names to the ethics committee with the goal of going after the (CBC)."

An aide to one senior black democrat said,"It's kind of crazy. How can it be that the ethics committee only investigates African Americans? It doesn't make sense."

Well! All someone has to do to see who commits most crime is to watch the crime shows on T V and you can make up your own minds!

As far as congress, if the accused are innocent they have nothing to worry about.

Why it always comes down to the Race Card? After all the BRAZEN acts by people in ACORN and the Black Panthers who intimidated white voters in the last election and were given a "Get Out of Jail Free" by Eric Holder do we have to hear people making these claims!

Nancy Pelosi said when she would become speaker that "She would drain the swamp"!

Charlie Wrangle for one is the biggest "Swamp Critter" in the house! As for the rest I am not familiar with them.It's been almost a year since Nancy promised to clean things up but it still SMELLS! The swamp gas is overtaking the rest of congress! I can smell it all the way to Louisiana!

    " To Annoyed Ignorance: By your logic, black people should be able to break the law because white people broke the law. I sure Dr. MLKing (a Republican, by-the-way) would be proud of your stance. "

    " I could not be more thrilled the way things are unfolding for the Democrats. The recent victories by Republicans in N.J. and Virginia is just a little pre-game warm up. Barry is slowly but surely being exposed for the fraud he truely is.
    Change ? He meant PAIN ! Get ready for your reward. I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy watching Pelosi, the CBC and the rest of those lefty crooks get what they deserve. "

    " To Annoyed Ignorance. The only thing I saw during the last election was voter intimation from the New Black Panthers and voter fraud from ACORN. Please give me a reference where the KKK “beat, and forbid blacks or people of other races to vote” in 2008.

    Stop whining about history and join today's society. "

    " All the members of the CBC went to Cuba and praised Fidel Castro last year and praised the medical system in Cuba! That's why they support Barack's Health Care Takeover! They like SLAVERY! "

    " We aren't talking about ancient history when the Black Panthers intimidated voters! It was in the last presidential election!
    Are you trying to say that white people have to endure intimidation from black THUGS when we go to vote? They had better not try anything like that when I go to vote!
    What color the man in the White House is, is not the issue! You are trying to make it so! Your bias is evident!
    Black people are entitled to the same thing as white people . That is EQUALITY! They are not exempt from criminal acts! "

    " Great comments, on this and other topics as well. People are people. I do not make a difference between black or white or other. I have likes and dislikes to any race. Ignorance is ignorance, regardless of color. Until we get to that point, there will still be problems. No race is pure anyway, my black son has green eyes.Everyone is entitled to feel a certain way,but we live in civilization.Be civil. Otherwise, Antartica is lacking population... "

    " I am so sick of the Republican and Democratic thing!!! People are people! Just because you get an education... dont mean you are exempt from life and all that goes with it. People in general have questionable behavior. I see numberous poeple of all racist mess up. We are all human and make mistakes. I just want to see some adults stand up for their wrongdoings...It could be cheating on your wife and/or an official...It could be stealing taxpayers dollars... Temptation is for everyone. Knowing your wrongs is knowing GOD. "

    " B/c the people targeted in ACORN are black, that means that all black people act that way? You speak of the Black Panthers threatening elections? What about the Klu Klux Klan or white extremist that marched, beat, and forbid blacks or people of other races to vote? There are two sides to every story and neither side is totally innocent. History is what history is - look it up! Would you feel better if the man in power was white and the situation was the same as it is? I am sure you would. "

    " There's an old saying that goes like this, "if the shoe fits wear it." I could care less if the people violating ethics are black, white, red or yellow. You don't get a pass. That's what's wrong with this country now. Most are getting passes, it's got to stop. If you're black and dealing dirt then expect some dust to get on you. What a message Barrack would be sending if his white house ethics committee would actually do it's job and find wrong doing and do something about it. Just a joke folks. "
