<\/p>\nRUSH: Now, let\u2019s move to Ilhan Omar. This is one of these many circumstances where nobody has the guts to say what\u2019s really going on here, particularly in the Democrat Party. So Ilhan Omar, she\u2019s from Minnesota, and she won fame for demanding to be able to wear the headpiece, the hijab on the floor of the House of Representatives. And everybody, “Oh, sure, whatever you want! Just don\u2019t blow us up. Whatever you want. Just don\u2019t do any terrorism. If you want to wear it, wear it.”<\/p>\n
So she got the idea that nobody was gonna oppose her. She hates Jews. She\u2019s more than an anti-Semite. She\u2019s from Somalia. She is an Islamist. And she hates Jews. Jews are the problem in the world to her and many other people like her. And so when the Democrats have these ceremonies where they have to pledge solidarity with Israel, well, Omar doesn\u2019t participate. Screw you! The Jews are the problem! I\u2019m not gonna swear allegiance to Israel!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So now the Democrats have a problem because they\u2019ve got a rabidly anti-Semitic member of Congress, who is a freshman and is getting all kinds of media acclaim. \u201cRep. Ilhan Omar is catching flak on Twitter yet again for suggesting that U.S. politicians were being forced to \u2018pledge allegiance\u2019 to Israel.<\/p>\n
\u201cOmar, 37, was responding to a tweet from New York Congresswoman Nita Lowey when she made the alleged anti-Semitic comments Sunday. \u2018I should not be expected to have allegiance\/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee,\u2019 Omar tweeted.<\/p>\n
\u201cLowey had been calling the congresswoman out for comments she reportedly made during a bookstore event last week — suggesting that pro-Israel groups were pushing lawmakers to \u2018pledge allegiance to a foreign country.\u2019 \u2018Lawmakers must be able to debate w\/o prejudice or bigotry,\u2019 Lowey tweeted on Saturday. \u2018I am saddened that Rep. Omar continues to mischaracterize support for Israel. I urge her to retract this statement and engage in further dialogue with the Jewish community on why these comments are so hurtful.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Well, Ilhan Omar is unaffected, unmoved, and untainted by Democrat threats. She fired back on Sunday: \u201cOur democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman! I should not be expected to have allegiance\/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee. The people of the 5th elected me to serve their interest. I am sure we agree on that!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
So Lowey fired back, “No member of Congress is asked to swear allegiance to another country. Throughout history, Jews have been accused of dual loyalty, leading to discrimination and violence, which is why these accusations are so hurtful.\u201d<\/p>\n
So I guess the rub here is that Ilhan Omar thought she was being forced to swear allegiance to Israel. And Nita Lowey says, “No way, we don\u2019t do that. But the fact that you would respond the way you did, why, it\u2019s very hurtful \u2019cause it\u2019s obvious you\u2019re an anti-Semite.” So the Democrats are gonna offer a resolution I guess tomorrow that will condemn anti-Semitism without mentioning Omar. This is how they dance all around it.<\/p>\n
House Democrats are gonna offer a resolution Wednesday condemning anti-Semitism in response to Representative Ilhan Omar\u2019s latest remarks on Israel. \u201cThe declaration, written by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats, comes after Omar\u2019s new remarks suggesting American supporters of Israel are pushing people to have \u2018allegiance to a foreign country.\u2019 … A draft of the resolution does not rebuke Omar, a Somali-American and one of two Muslim women in Congress. But it sets out the history of anti-Semitism and bigotry in America.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Democrat Party, this is the way I see this. The Democrat Party claims perfection when it comes to identity politics, right? The Democrat Party is never anti-Semitic; the Democrat Party is never racist; the Democrat Party is never anti-gay; the Democrat is never anti-trans; the Democrat Party is never anti-LGBTQ; the Democrat Party is perfection. There\u2019s no bigotry; there\u2019s no hatred; there\u2019s no homophobia.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/APP-032818-Truth-RUSH-Dark.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
And yet all throughout the Democrat Party there\u2019s all kinds of examples of this. And now the Democrats are having to write a resolution asserting and reminding everybody that there\u2019s no anti-Semitism that will be tolerated in their party. And the only reason they\u2019re doing this is because of Ilhan Omar, but they don\u2019t even have the guts to put her name in the resolution.<\/p>\n
To me this is just gigantic hypocrisy. How can this be happening in the Democrat Party where there is no racism and there is no anti-Semitism and there is no bigotry, there is no homophobia? They\u2019ve got it wired, right? They\u2019re perfect in all this. Pelosi doesn\u2019t want to offend what is seen as a rising Democrat star. Well, then why do the resolution in the first place?<\/p>\n
You know what this document\u2019s also gonna do? It\u2019s gonna reject bigotry directed against Muslims after the 9\/11, 2001, attack. And as if that\u2019s been done over and over and over and over again. Why is it necessary, so necessary that the Democrat Party to continue to proclaim that there is none of this going on in their party and that they will not support it? Why do they have to keep asserting this? Because the Democrat Party is the home of racism. And the Democrat Party is the home of bigotry, mean spirited bigotry.<\/p>\n
The Democrat Party is the home of all kinds of intolerance. They invent it. And that\u2019s why when one of their members appears to go outside the boundaries, they have to move in fast and make these assertions so that the media can continue this hoax that the Democrats are clean and pure as the wind-driven snow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
