Two black Congress members and a gay member were verbally abused by anti-health care reform protesters Saturday. Rep. John Lewis (D-Georgia), said protesters Saturday repeatedly yelled "nigger" at him as he left a heath care meeting and walked to the Capitol. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) said he too was called "nigger" as he walked to the Capitol for a vote and was spat on by a protester who was arrested by Capitol Police.
Protesters also yelled "faggot" at Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), who is openly gay, as he left the same meeting that Lewis attended.
Obama's problem is that he's brown; I have said it all along. You can start a war and kill untold numbers of civilians but 'don't you going trying to fix health care'.
