Rep Omar Tries To Attack GOP Over A Hypothetical Justice
Leave it to Rep Omar to try and slander the GOP over something that hasn't even happened. Justice Nominee Barrett is constantly under fire from Liberals/Dems as they try to find a chink in her armor. Liberals, for the most part, are fixated on the idea that Barret is somehow going to immediately overturn Roe v Wade as if that is her sole purpose for being selected.
But Barrett has proven with her responses that she simply wants to do her best to uphold the constitution. But Libs aren't buying it, and want to attack the fact that she is Catholic. Rep Omar, of course, is all for it. She made a ridiculous hypothetical to try and justify her stance against Barrett, where the GOP would be attacking a Muslim Justice candidate over their Sharia law belief. So she seems to think why not attack Barrett for her beliefs?
Omar tweeted about her stance.
"Let’s be clear about this: if a Muslim woman was nominated to SCOTUS you would see Republicans lose their mind about her religious background... “Sharia law” would be trending right now. Miss me with the pearl-clutching and all this righteous talk about religious freedom."
But Omar is not looking at the big picture. Even Dems don't want to go after Barrett for her religious beliefs. If they did they would open up the door to further attacks on Catholics and they especially don't want to because of the upcoming election.
"Stephen Schneck, a national co-chair of Catholics for Biden, told the Associated Press, “God forbid a Democratic senator did go after this candidate on the grounds of her religious belief. I think it would create a huge backlash that would certainly hurt the Biden campaign."
Joe Biden, the Democratic nominee, is a lifelong Catholic."
But really Omar should just stop. This Justice appointment has nothing to do with a Muslim candidate or sharia law. But leave it to Omar to try and insert her beliefs about how she thinks America is anti-muslim.
