Print | Email
"Our homeland security is of utmost importance to all Americans, Democrats and Republicans alike; this is a time for effective political leadership. In our work to keep our country safe from terrorism, policy makers have an obligation to balance the need to protect our homeland and safeguard the constitutional rights of all American citizens and residents," said DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe. "Congressman Coble's statements in agreement with the internment of American citizens during World War II perpetuate misinformation and the dangerous belief that racial profiling and ethnic scapegoating are legitimate practices.
Congressman Coble is not fit to lead our country on security and constitutional matters, and must resign from the chairmanship."
"Democrats and civil rights leaders from across the country have spoken up to condemn Congressman Coble's remarks," said McAu
