no RSS stuff for me. I just browse the news on google news occasionally... where ever it may be from.
Denigrating Puerto Rican cuisine and demanding she change the pronounciation of her name are clearly winning strategies.
You should really have something more than Fox on your RSS feed.

ok, it was just funny that the two stories you cited were the first Fox stories on google.
yeah, ha, I just went back and checked where the Republicans worried about alienating the hispanic voter base story came from... yep, fox
No one else finds it pathetic that everyone keeps saying the Reps have to worry about the Hispanic Vote while no one warns the Dems when they bash African and Hispanic SCN's?
Why care about the Hispanic vote when the other side is trying to legalize them all for it.
Which Hispanic SCN did the Democrats bash?
Huh?Why care about the Hispanic vote when the other side is trying to legalize them all for it.
Who was warning the Dems about losing the "moderate" vote when they were bashing Palin in a sexist way about taking on so much responsibility w/ so many kids???
People eat this media driven bull hype up so easily. Double standards and hypocrites. Damn it all.
omg--she thinks a woman should be able to reach a better (more equitable?) decision than a man on questions of gender inequality, and that a minority (latina in this case) should be able to reach a better decision than a non-minority on quesions of racial inequality!!! witch!!! witch!!!
maybe she feels that way because somewhere along the way she's been personally affected by both forms of inequality, and because of that she has a strong sense of justice when it comes to those issues. maybe.
that's a dumb statement...
her job is to pass down the letter of the law... not what "she" thinks it should be just because she's a 'minority' and maybe went through stuff that 'normal' people did not have to. Since when is Justice what some minority woman "thinks" it should be.
don't they disqualify potential Jurors who might have "personal opinions" on the matter at hand?maybe she feels that way because somewhere along the way she's been personally affected by both forms of inequality, and because of that she has a strong sense of justice when it comes to those issues.
Well great, because that's exactly what she said in the rest of that passage that everyone leaves out.
You never said which Hispanic SCN the Democrats bashed.
And you never clarified this:Why care about the Hispanic vote when the other side is trying to legalize them all for it.
My badz, not SCN
Miguel Estrada
Alberto Gonzales
Clarify what Chumpsta?
Legalizing Illegals to have countless Hispanic generations loyal to the dems.
that would be good then if true.Well great, because that's exactly what she said in the rest of that passage that everyone leaves out.
I was replying to the post above (which left that part out)
Did they call them racists?
If Sotomayor had not judicial experience like Estrada, that might be an actual legitimate concern, but I don't remember anyone calling him a racist. I agree they were probably more concerned about the possibility of a future Supreme Court nomination for him
Any opposition to Gonzo has turned out to be completely justified.
Eh, if they work and pay taxes, I'm not against immigration. No one else is going to pick cherries and the like.Clarify what Chumpsta?

Racism is defined as a white person saying something negative about some oppressed group (whether the oppression is real or just perceived).
It's not racist for a Hispanic, Black, Asian etc. to say something about white people. At least this is what I've been told and seems to hold true based on the mainstream response.
As long as there's no reason to believe his nominee is incompetent, there's no reason why he shouldn't be able pick the nominee of his choice and have that person confirmed.
I just try to point out the hypocrisy of the left, which is abundant.
I don't care for whom they vote. Bush and McCain wanted to let them become legal too.
Actually, that's not true. The whole ing speech is about how one's ethnicity influences their jurisprudence. And, the quote confirms she believes her ethnicity makes her a superior decision-maker.
Actually, no. The put their own racism on display for the occasion.
I notice you don't mention the unjustified attacks on Justice Alito...your idiocy -- albeit left-wing articles of faith -- about Gonzales and Estrada, notwithstanding.
will she be confirmed, yoni?
Cool.
There are plenty of unsubstantiated attacks from Democrats -- just as your attacks on Sotomayor are unjustified and unsubstantiated.I notice you don't mention the unjustified attacks on Justice Alito...your idiocy -- albeit left-wing articles of faith -- about Gonzales and Estrada, notwithstanding.
It's less certain today than yesterday.
Obama tries to deflect criticism from Sotomayor
It doesn't help that her concurrence and possible authorship on the Ricci case and her membership in an organization called "The Race" also demonstrate her racist bent.
Add to that her hostility to the 2nd Amendment, poor temperment, Catholicism combined with unknown position on abortion, and mediocre rating by her peers and, well...I'm thinking this could be troublesome for Obama.
Now, that's taking a statement out of context.
Why are they unjustified?
She said that she "would hope a wise Latina" would make better decisions than a white man.
She belongs to "La Raza," a racist organization.
She concurred with a ruling upholding a lower courts decision that discriminated against a group of firefighters because of their race.
I think the attacks are more than justified.
who instructed you to say all that? was it your party leader?
See, this is to what you and ChumpDumper resort when you don't have an argument.
Neither of you have yet made the case for why her statement isn't racist.
