Openly Racist Congressman Smears Obama

Racist U.S. Congressman Steve King proclaimed over the weekend that Al Qaeda and other radical Muslim groups would celebrate if Obama is elected President.

Steve King is part of a cadre of White Supremacists who currently serve (or who have served) in the U.S. Congress. Remember the attack against Muslim Congressman Keith Ellison not long after the mid-term elections? Ellison became the target of Racist Virginia Congressman Virgil Goode.

King has since defended his remarks.

It looks like Obama has to fight racist attacks from 2 directions- from the Republican Party (as expected), and from the Democratic Party.
