Another scowling face of a Democrat
This from the man who protests against "hate".
Daily Post "Democratic Representative Al Green of Texas spoke to a group of seven of the country’s top bankers this Wednesday.
“ 'As I look at the panel, and I’m grateful for your attendance, the–the eye would perceive that the seven of you have something in common. You appear to be white men. I may be mistaken,” Green stated during the hearing of the House Financial Services Committee.
“ 'If one among you happens to be something other than a white male, would you kindly extend a hand into the air? Kindly let the record reflect that there are no hands in the air and that the panel is made up of white men,” he went on.
“ 'This is not a pejorative,” Green stated. “You’ve all sermonized to a certain extent about diversity. If you believe that your likely successor will be a woman or a person of color, would you kindly extend a hand into the air?”
"No one raised their hand.
"Then, the Democratic Representative stated, “For fear that you may not hear me, just raise your hand now so that I’ll know you’re there. Raise your hand, please. All of you. Sir, apparently you don’t hear me over on the end. Would you kindly extend a hand into the air if you can hear me?”
"He urged them to raise their hands, which they did after hesitating." . . .
