a bunch of white men
Her outburst was directed at Assistant Secretary of State Roger Noriega during a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill. Noriega, a Mexican-American, is the State Department's top official for Latin America.
"I think it was an emotional response of her frustration with the administration," said David Simon, a spokesman for the Democrat from Jacksonville, Fla. He noted that Brown, who is black, is "very passionate about Haiti."
Brown sat directly across the table from Noriega and yelled into a microphone. Her comments sent a hush over the hourlong meeting, which was attended by about 30 people, including several members of Congress and Bush administration officials.
Noriega later told Brown: "As a Mexican-American, I deeply resent being called a racist and branded a white man," according to three participants.
Brown then told him "you all look alike to me," the participants said.

So how does Trent Lott get a lynching and Rep. Brown get nothing more than an honerable mention on a few news sites. Her comments were far, far, far more racist than his. Sad.

Moral Of The Story: Whites do not have the market cornered on racism.
Posted by: Lurker at February 26, 2004 08:37 PMjust like hilary clintons joke about ghandi that she got away with by just sayin "sorry" for... it's suck crap- and i bet half the people here didnt even hear about the joke because the liberal media covered it up...... grrrrrrr
moral of the story "lib's get away with murder...Just ask Clinton."
No different than Kerry getting a pass by so-called gay rights groups even those he opposes gay marriage. It's no different than Bush catching hell for the Patriot Act that his administration said went to far, but Kerry gets a apss and he helped write it.
I heard the Clinton joke. I didn't think it was funny, sounded stupid really. Guarantee if i had said something like that I'd have been stoned though.
