I have to wonder when we’ll hear calls for the resignation of this congressinal representative due to racist remarks<\/a>?<\/p>\n

U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown verbally attacked a top Bush administration official during a briefing on the Haiti crisis Wednesday, calling the President’s policy on the beleaguered nation “racist” and his representatives “a bunch of white men.”
\nHer 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.
\n“I think it was an emotional response of her frustration with the administration,” said David Simon, a spokesman for the Jacksonville Democrat. He noted that Brown, who is black, is “very passionate about Haiti.”
\nNoriega later told Brown: “As a Mexican-American, I deeply resent being called a racist and branded a white man,” according to three participants.
\nBrown then told him “you all look alike to me,” the participants said.<\/p>\n

Noriega did note that he would pass on Brown’s concerns to (Secretary of State) Colin Powell and (national security adviser) Condoleezza Rice the next time I run into them.” <\/p>\n
