Waters: Probe 'birthers and the teabaggers' at rallies for racist views
By Michael O'Brien - 09/16/09 12:10 PM ET

The media should investigate the racial views of conservative activists like the ones who descended on Washington last weekend, one liberal congresswoman said Wednesday.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said that it's not enough for African-Americans to levy allegations of racism against the right-leaning protesters, and that the media must look into their views.

"I want those people talked to; I want them interviewed," Waters told the liberal Bill Press Radio show in a podcast. "I want journalists to be all over those rallies and the marches with the birthers and the teabaggers."

"What I'm looking for is the very people who carry the signs who are referring to the policies in very, very strange ways like 'Obamacare' and 'Barry Obamacare with Kennedy,'" she said. "What I've been interested in is hearing from those people that everybody's referring to -- everybody on the Mall, in the rally."

Tens of thousands of conservative activists took to the National Mall last weekend to protest the Obama administration, specifically its stance on healthcare reform. Examples of incendiary rhetoric touching on racial overtones from some protesters have emerged on blogs in the days since the rally.

"I think it's not enough for African-Americans to say what they think, what they suspect," Waters said. "I think that if you put the microphones in front of them, if you do the interviews, they'll tell you what they believe, what they think."

The race cards are flying fast & furious. Nobody that does not want Obamacare must be a racist and investigated. What a fucking nutjob, but hey, she is the prime example of a democrat.
 
She actually used the derisive terms "birther's and teabagger's"? What an ignorant woman...who the hell elected her??? Oh yeah, democrats!

It really bothers you when the voters elect an African-American?
 
If what I saw Saturday is a majority, there must be only around 100,00 people in America.
:thup:

Of course a "play the race card" asshole would insert race into the discussion. That it does not bother you that an elected offcial would use such derisive terms to describe citizen constituents is typical of the hypocrisy displayed by you everyday on here.
 
Don't the conservatards call themselves "birthers" and "teabaggers"?

They play the race card when they can't think of anything else to say. It's certainly not helping Obama.
 
it really bothers me that liberals are allowed to vote, regardless of race....there ought to be minimum intelligence limits before someone can go in a voting booth......

I would support that considering the more time you spend in college, the more likely you are to be liberal.
 
I have no idea. But thanks for asking.
