Dems, not Jeff Sessions, have the real race problem
Armstrong Williams, opinion contributor
It is an unfortunate truth that Democrats are not the examples of diversity and inclusion as much as they claim.
They portray themselves as the righteous warriors of truth and conviction, and they actually believe this “truth” to be self-evident. But we must all ask ourselves, particularly as they take the moral high ground while launching a thousand ships of claims of racism against Senator Jeff Sessions Jeff Sessions WHIP LIST: How many Dems will back Sessions? Loretta Lynch: ‘You’ve got to hold police accountable’ Dissenting nominees give hope to GOP skeptics of Trump MORE, are they truly demi-gods of morality or just puppeteers attempting to pull all of our string?
It's the latter, and I draw this conclusion based on the lack of diversity on their One hundred member United State Senate staffs.
A frustrated and highly disappointed Democratic Senate staffer, who spoke to the New York Daily News recently, stated:
"They are all so phony" ... "Every time I hear any of the Democratic senators, including my own boss, talk about diversity, I cringe, because it's all one big lie. That they've been allowed to enjoy this reputation as a party that values diversity, while doing next to nothing of substance to align their actions with their words, is expert-level deception."
My fellow Americans, a dirty little secret kept in the United States Senate is our high and mighty liberal Senators have serious racial issues of their own.
For example, in an unprecedented move, New Jersey Senator Cory Booker testified against Senator Jeff Sessions, claiming that the senator's values weren't in sync with issues of relevance to many minorities.
However, this seemed odd to many considering Senator Booker thanked Senator Sessions just a year ago at the U.S Capitol for his help celebrating the 1965 “Foot Soldiers,” those who marched from Selma to Montgomery, Ala., to promote civil rights for African Americans.
So Senator Sessions can't be that much of a racist, or maybe Senator Booker just suffered from a case of amnesia — It's this level of hypocrisy that turns so many people off.
Some may find it ironic, but we shouldn't be surprised by their deceit. There is only one African-American chief of staff in the Senate, and he works for Senator Tim Scott |
