Variations on a Theme

Rashida Tlaib, the Muslim congresswoman who swore to “impeach the mother f**ker,” also attacked her House colleagues for supporting legislation mildly pro-Israel. It basically allowed boycotting of BDS boycotters. She claimed those colleagues had divided loyalties.

This sounds like projection to me, she has divided loyalty as a Palestinian-American and presumes others do as well. Truly they may have, this sort of thing happens in a nation of immigrants.

Nevertheless, the pot calling the kettle black is never edifying and she should avoid it as well as avoiding making unprovable sexual claims. And besides, we’ve legalized everything else, why not incest? Why pick on the incestuous when nearly every other variation is legit?
