Sure, President Obama’s appointment of Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court is blatantly racist.
The smiling senorita was chosen simply because she is a Latina. If Sotomayor had been a lily-white Methodist from Minnesota, she would not have received the slightest chance for consideration.
Few commentators note that 60% of Sotomayor’s rulings were overturned by the Supreme Court - -
Few note that Ms. Sotomayor received her education in the heyday of affirmative action - - a time when functional illiterates were entry to the hallowed halls of ivy for the sake of diversity.....when standardized test scores, including law board examinations, were adjusted to compensate for “cultural disadvantages.”
Race remains a concern in the Sotomayor appointment - - particularly because of her strong ties to La Raza, the Latino answer to the KKK.
La Raza teaches that Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington State make up an area known as “Aztlan” — a fictional ancestral homeland of the Aztecs before Europeans arrived in North America.
These areas belong to the Latinos and Latinas and must be surrendered to “La Raza” once enough immigrants, legal or illegal, come to constitute a majority, as in Los Angeles. Once this is achieved, the current borders of the United States will simply be obliterated.
But the “reconquista” won’t end with territorial occupation and secession. The final plan ...includes the ethnic cleansing of Americans of European, African, and Asian descent out of “Aztlan.”
Miguel Perez, a La Raza spokesman ... has been quoted as saying: “The ultimate ideology is the liberation of Aztlan. Communism would be closest [to it]. Once Aztlan is established, ethnic cleansing would commence: Non-Chicanos would have to be expelled — opposition groups would be quashed because you have to keep power.”

It’s the same eeoc plague that got OJ off.
We will suffer this sh!t for a long time.
Why would she apologize?
Self-hating white liberals had told “persons of color” for years that knuckle-dragging white Christian men routinely conspire to keep them down. These secret meetings are held somewhere in the south or midwest.
From the article “Sotomayor, let’s remember, is a leader of La Raza - - an individual who has shaped its policies, its ideology, and its racist demands.
“No one,” President Obama said today, “can oppose this appointment.”
I oppose it, and, if you are a red-blooded American, you should oppose it as well. “
So, Republicans are upset that Obama nominated Sonia Sotomayor to replace David Souter on the Supreme Court. Why?
She was nominated to the U.S. District Court in New York by Republican George H. W. Bush and confirmed on unanimous consent of the Senate. Then, when she was nominated by Bill Clinton to be a U.S. Court of Appeals judge, 25 Republican senators voted to confirm her.
And back when Clinton nominated the ultra-liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the Supreme Court, only 3 Republicans out of 44 in the Senate at the time voted against her.
The Republicans are a little late to be opposing Ms. Sotomayor.
Better late than never.
But let’s just we get the facts straight.
Minorities can’t be racist because they don’t have the power to enforce their opinions.
...Oh wait, this woman is from the 2nd circuit and Obama is President.
So is the above statement still true?
“The Republicans are a little late to be opposing Ms. Sotomayor.
Better late than never.
But let’s just we get the facts straight.”
The fact is, she has an agenda and should not be on the court, and yes the repubs were late, as they usually are.
CNN noontime reporters papered over her statement that she would make better decisions than a white man by focusing on her statements that her background was a part of her. Alito’s similar statement about his background was mentioned but background was not the point, making better decisions was.
I’m a red-blooded (no racism intended) U.S. Citizen...
Does that count? ;-)
She should not be on the court. Lets’ just be honest as to how she got to where she is.
“Miguel Perez, a La Raza spokesman ... has been quoted as saying: “The ultimate ideology is the liberation of Aztlan. Communism would be closest [to it]. Once Aztlan is established, ethnic cleansing would commence: Non-Chicanos would have to be expelled — opposition groups would be quashed because you have to keep power.”
La Raza good.
“It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution,...”
Federalist Society bad.
MSM/Liberal hat off now......
“She should not be on the court. Lets’ just be honest as to how she got to where she is.”
She got there the same way she’s getting on the Supreme court....race baiting, pandering politicians.
I once applied for a job with the federal government. My score was 99%, plus a 5% veterans’ add-on, or, I was in the 104th percentile. I did not get the job. I am a white male. Years later I was chosen for a job with the FAA, the FSDO manager telling me he couldn’t wait to get me on board. A few weeks later he ashamedly told me that he had been ordered to “hire a woman or person of color” instead. No job for me. The FAA got a woman with 1/4 my qualifications. I hope she didn’t hurt anyone. I had long known that law school and medical school admissions had been polluted by PC.
There are way to many stories like yours, pabianice. Equal justice? Not lately.
Not to be too petty, BUT, I had to take the SAT and LSAT tests, too. While I got good scores and got into a top 20 law school, it wasn’t an Ivy league, like BHO and Sotomoyor. I wonder what her scores were. Anyone know?
Thanks for the ping...it’ll be interesting to see if this “has legs”...
Semper Fi,

Intrepid columnist Michelle Malkin maintains that all Americans should be aware of the following fifteen facts regarding La Raza (“The Race”):
15. “The Race” supports the issuance of driver’s licenses to illegal aliens.
14.”The Race” demands in-state tuition discounts for illegal alien students - - discounts are not available to law-abiding U.S. citizens and law-abiding legal immigrants.
13. “The Race” opposes cooperative immigration enforcement efforts between local, state, and federal authorities.
12. “The Race” calls for the immediate removal of fences along the Mexican border.
11. “The Race” joined the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee in a failed lawsuit attempt to prevent federal officials from entering immigration information into a key national crime database.
10. “The Race” decried Oklahoma’s tough immigration-enforcement-first laws, which cut off welfare to illegal aliens, put teeth in employer sanctions, and strengthened local-federal cooperation and information sharing.
9. “The Race” initiated a lawsuit to prevent Proposition 227, California’s bilingual education reform ballot initiative, from becoming law.
8. “The Race” condemned common-sense voter ID provisions as an “absolute disgrace.”
7. “The Race” has opposed post-9/11 national security measures at every turn.
6. Former “Race” president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary Clinton’s Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: “U.S. English is to Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks.” He was referring to U.S. English, the nation’s oldest, largest citizens’ action group dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States.
5. “The Race” spawned and supported a poisonous subset of ideological satellites, including Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA). The late GOP Rep. Charlie Norwood rightly characterized MEChA as “the most anti-American groups in the country.”
4. “The Race” has conducted a smear campaign against staunch immigration-enforcement leaders and has called for TV and cable news networks to keep immigration enforcement proponents off the airwaves.
3. “The Race” sponsors and supports militant ethnic nationalist charter schools subsidized by your public tax dollars (at least $8 million in federal education grants). The schools include Aztlan Academy in Tucson, Ariz., the Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Ariz., Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School in St. Paul, Minn., and La Academia Semillas del Pueblo in Los Angeles, whose principal inveighed: “We don’t want to drink from a White water fountain, we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain in our aqueducts. We don’t need a White water fountain . . . ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own destruction.”
2. “The Race” has honed the practice of the politically correct shakedown at taxpayer expense, pushing relentlessly to lower home-loan standards for Hispanic borrowers, reaping millions in federal “mortgage counseling” grants, seeking special multimillion-dollar earmarks, and partnering with banks that do business with illegal aliens.
1. “The Race” thrives on ethnic supremacy — and the politically correct elite’s unwillingness to call it what it is. Prominent historian Victor Davis Hanson observes: “[The] organization’s very nomenclature ‘The National Council of La Raza’ is hate speech to the core. Despite all the contortions of the group, Raza (as its Latin cognate suggests) reflects the meaning of ‘race’ in Spanish, not ‘the people’ — and that’s precisely why we don’t hear of something like ‘The National Council of the People,’ which would not confer the buzz notion of ethnic, racial and tribal chauvinism.”
Good luck finding that out.
I appose the appointment of Sotomayor!!
