Threat or joke

|

I stumbled on this today and I can't quite make out if he's serious.

Nancy Pelosi might not be using the N-word with Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-Fla), but she might be mindful of Michael Richards. Hastings is a U.S. Congressman who was impeached in 1989 as a federal judge for allegations of corruption. He then became Congressman and has served on the House Intelligence Committee and is in line for taking the Leadership role.

The Congressional Black Caucus is behind him. While holding the position of Congressman, there have not been any allegations against him that he would be violating national security. Newt Gingrich in an interview of FoxNews has warned that Pelosi approving Hastings would be a big mistake.

Michael Richards, is the comedian who has come under fire for using the N-word in a rage and has not been forgiven by black leaders. Pelosi needs to weigh whether she will be forgiven by the black caucus if she fails to appoint Hastings.

There's more, but you get the drift. So what do you think? Is this a threat? Or a joke?
