Nobody Told Her Nepotism Would Be A Problem

And, let's be honest, it really isn't, as long as you have the right quantity of epidermal pigmentation and the correct letter after your name:

Longtime Dallas congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson has awarded thousands of dollars in college scholarships to four relatives and a top aide’s two children since 2005, using foundation funds set aside for black lawmakers’ causes.

The recipients were ineligible under anti-nepotism rules of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, which provided the money. And all of the awards violated a foundation requirement that scholarship winners live or study in a caucus member’s district.

Johnson, a Democrat, denied any favoritism when asked about the scholarships last week. Two days later, she acknowledged in a statement released by her office that she had violated the rules but said she had done so “unknowingly” and would work with the foundation to “rectify the financial situation.”

Here's a question: Why does the Congressional Black Caucus bother with the pretense of even HAVING anti-nepotism rules?  The very purpose of the CBC is to enable "(liberal) black lawmakers" to loot the system in a sort of permananent Viking-style pillaging of collective "whitey" for piecemeal reparations for slavery and the Jim Crow apartheid that followed it.  For that matter, why is EBJ wasting time with excuses instead of climbing on the same self-righteous, moral supremacy black martyr stallion as Good-Time Charlie Rangel and Mad Maxine Waters?  They should coordinate their cases and demand to be "tried" all at the same time in order to maximize the persecutory spectacle of three "black lawmakers" being "lynched" by Nancy "Bull Connor" Pelosi.  Not one of them will be so much as wrist-slapped, but doing it this way would so put the unholy fear of Barack into what survives of the House Donk caucus after November that Rangel would be even odds to be the next House Minority Leader, with Waters and Johnson as his [heh] whips.

Seriously.
