Yup. Seeing a strong independent Somali black refugee Muslim women doing good in America hurts a lot.

"doing good" is in the eye of the beholder. Many consider her anathema to widely held values of personal responsibility, individual effort, and rewards commensurate with merit rather than status,

And yet none of your preferred leaders meet this bar

Don't tell me Trump's band of loonies got where they did with merit.

See what you miss is that those values are for the poors.

I don’t know what elected official you think meets this bar, but clearly her constituents disagree with you.

Just racism. That's all.

No trolls please. Serious question.

“On Monday, Ms Omar tweeted that ‘we have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the US, Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban.’”

She can jump in a lake as far as I’m concerned.

She’s right. The truth hurts, huh?

She’s not wrong.

Technically perhaps. But do you agree with her implication that the US, Taliban and Hamas are morally equivalent?

I emphatically do not. And I think that anyone who does is unfit to serve as a representative of this country.

Then you are naive.

Shes not my favorite politician, but I respect her. I fully believe she would slice someone’s throat if she had to, and they deserved it. She survived a real war and she’s no phony.

Seriously! I love how after that lunatic attacked her with the liquid, she did not cower, on the contrary, she lunged at him!

When you loathe the country you chose to move to it makes it too clear that this is just a place to get rich and you don't actually want to assimilate.

BS. She is serving her country in Congress. It doesn’t get more American than that!

Curious if you think allegiance to Israel is ok?

You’re mistaken, on both counts.

Her constituents are from the "give us free stuff paid for by other people's taxes" party.

Certainly, if you're Israeli, or at least share their values.

2/3's of Congress should be kicked out given their principal allegiance is to Israel.

Anti-semite says what?

Then you obviously detest the US as well. The moral equivalent of Taliban or Hamas? Bitter ignorance on full display.
