Were Rep. Steve Israel's comments about Republicans over the line?

Yes (D), not every Republican is a racist, regardless of their Immigration positions, and while a section of the Republican base is comprised of Racists, they make up a small minority, I mean, the only places I can envision John Malcom Paterson types getting elected are Mississippi and Alabama, and even then, you aren't going to find mainstream Republicans screaming "NEGROS WILL DIE, WHITE POWER" from Capitol Hill.

You don't have to be an avowed white nationalist to be racist.
