Rep. Houlahan |
Rep[ulsive] Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA) thinks that Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert's (CO) comment about Rep. Al Green (Dummy-TX) is racist because Boebert referred to Green's cane as a "pimp cane," in a TV interview, which it does indeed resemble.
As you may know, Green continuously heckled President Donald Trump during his first address to the nation last week, until House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) had the Sergeant at Arms remove the screaming lunatic from the chamber. Yes, Green shook his cane and his demeanor was reminiscent of a guy who just stepped out of his tent only to discover someone had stolen his "Two Buck Chuck" wine.
In the March 7 interview with Real America's Voice News, Rep. Boebert said, referring to his behavior during Trump's speech that "Al Green was given multiple opportunities to stand down, to sit down, to behave, to show decorum."
"For him to go and shake his pimp cane at President Trump was absolutely abhorrent," Boebert added.
"For him to go and shake his pimp cane at President Trump was absolutely abhorrent," Boebert added.
That was it for Houlahan. Using the trigger word "pimp" for her implies a black man in a loud, oversized, purple suit, wide-brim fedora with a feather, satin button-ups, with an open shirt to show his chest hair, heavy gold chain, pinky ring and yes, a cane.
So who's the racist?
Houlahan submitted a resolution Monday calling to censure Boebert "for her recent disparaging and derogatory comments" about Green.

The resolution said those words uttered by Boebert "are disparaging, derogatory, and racist toward another colleague, and are a breach of proper conduct and decorum of the U.S. House of Representatives."
