Herman Cain urged to quit presidential race by angry Latino Republicans [Video]

"We call on Herman Cain to drop his candidacy for president. His recent comments and lack of practical solutions to solving illegal immigration show he’s not a serious candidate," the Somos Republicans group wrote in a statement released Monday.

"Many Hispanics find his recent comments comparing immigrants to 'invading Huns' offensive, and also insensitive when thousands of immigrants died crossing the desert. We’re looking for practical and humane solutions, and find Cain’s pandering to xenophobes disgusting. Apparently nativist tea has been served up at many tea parties! Hispanics are a key swing vote, and whichever GOP candidate succeeds in winning the nomination cannot win the general election without the Hispanic vote. Cain needs to leave the field open to more serious candidates," Somos demanded.

Apparently the Arizona-based organization, which claims to be "the fastest growing Hispanic Republican group in the nation," was not impressed with the inspiration the former Godfather's Pizza chief executive received on a recent trip to Asia.

I believe the wall was built to keep out the invading Mongols.

The Decadent Sickos, screaming like apes at the thought of a Sarah Palin or Michele Bachmann Presidency, are going to blow out their vocal chords when they realize that Herman Cain’s headed for the White House.

Maybe they’ll all move to North Korea—which has their ideal form of government—why work to establish it here when it’s already in effect there? I’ll help pay for the move. But remember, Decadent Sickos: It’s only a one-way ticket!

The Left has made a cottage industry out of creating names for groups that are dedicated to precisely the opposite of what the name suggests.

For those who think North Korea might be a bit chilly in the winter—there’s always Zimbabwe.

The Rio Grande constitutes a fine moat and a while back a FReeper came up with a 1910 El Paso postcard showing a gator flouurishing in a city park.

Sounds just like Karl Rove.

Couldn't work "he just doesn't like brown people" in on a black man, I guess.

Cain's big drawback is his age. Palin has time, but it may be now or never for Cain.

For this reason, we should use the time we have before the primaries to give some serious consideration to his views and qualifications.

“The Left has made a cottage industry out of creating names for groups that are dedicated to precisely the opposite of what the name suggests. “

Here is blatant. These clowns don’t have a conservative bone in their body. Now we could start a group called American Democrats, and claim that we’re Democrats wanting a strong defense, a strong economy, and overall freedom. But the media would laugh us out of town...knowing full-well that Democrats are nowhere near those positions.

But when they OWN the media, they can choose which groups to use to achieve their ends.

Cain or Bachman. The choices are getting clearer for me.

...and also insensitive when thousands of immigrants died crossing the desert...

IF they had crossed the border legally, and applied for citizenship, they wouldn't have died in the desert. Besides, it was Hispanics who took their money and sent them across the desert with no food or water.

Much like the African Kings who sold negro men,women, and children to traders as slaves.

The Hispanics don't want a US controlled border. They like it as it is now, where crime lords control the border and profit from all movement. This way they can protect the flow of drugs across the border.

Our current administration is probably taking kickbacks from the drug lords to allow them to have 'safe' corridors. Our government even put up a sign notifying US citizens to STAY OUT. It can't get any more blatant than that.

Humans are not color blind. The US is the most non racist country in the world, and we still self select into like groups.

To be ignorant of that is madness. The Latino activist is as least honest.

"The Left has made a cottage industry out of creating names for groups that are dedicated to precisely the opposite of what the name suggests."

It's Orwellian paradox--straight out of 1984--like "Love is hate!" "Freedom is slavery!" "War is peace!"

Nothing could have a more opposite meaning than "liberal" as applied to these Leftists. There is nothing liberal about them!

Their knee-jerk reaction is to accuse others of exactly what they are: racist, intolerant, bigotted, locked in groupthink, close-minded, mind numbed, violent, hate filled, totalitarian!
