The Congressional Black Caucus

Needs to be abolished. So says Tom Tancredo. And you know what? I agree with him.

Think about this - what if we had the Congressional White Caucus? An organization who only allowed white members, who focused on the issues of white Americans? Would that be racist? You can bet your sweet patootie that the usual suspects would be HOWLING their OUTRAGE over it.

So why is it racist to have a White Caucus, but not a Black Caucus? It's the same damn issue, and the Black Caucus' refusal to allow a white congresscritter who represented a mostly black district shows that it's not about who you represent, it's about the color of your skin. It's racist, plain and simple.

It has no place in Congress. Let's get rid of it.
