The President Of La Raza Says Party Will Pay Price For An Uncivil Debate Over The High Court
When President Obama announced Sonia Sotomayor as his pick for the Supreme Court, the pundits warned Republicans of a trap -- attacking the first Hispanic nominee for the court could backfire, they said. That didn't stop former presidential candidate Tom Tancredo from going on cable news to decry Sotomayor's involvement with the National Council of La Raza, which he called a racist organization. Sotomayor herself was called a racist by Rush Limbaugh and then Newt Gingrich, who later withdrew his statement.
NationalJournal.com's Lucas Grindley spoke with La Raza's president, Janet Murguia, about whether these voices have harmed the Republican Party's standing among Hispanics, a growing part of the electorate. Edited excerpts of the interview follow. Visit the archives page for more Insider Interviews.

Oh hush Chico.
LOL
So, the American people are being threatened by these PC terrorists?
Self explanatory:
La Raza = “THE RACE”
Is this not by definition “Racist”?
Right, and the Democrats paid such a severe price for trashing Miguel Estrada.
The GOP needs to remind the public about the democrats’ treatment of Miguel Estrada during this process. Spanish language ads on the topic would be a good idea.
I’m sick of warnings based on racial sensitivity. When are the people who are not victims going to do some warning again?
Yeah you gotta let the Latinos do anything they please or else....
What are they going to do? Not vote Republican?
Because we all know if the GOP supports Sotomayor La Raza will endorse and support GOP candidates......right.
How do you say “Mau Mau” in Spanish? More racist thuggery from the left, ho hum.
The folks who won’t vote for a Republican for his/her treatment of Sotomayor won’t vote for them anyhow. So you may as well give her the business.
Evaluate and vote based on the content of her character, not the color of her skin.
SIEG HEIL.
La RAZA has spoken.
He and the racists who comprise his clique never voted Republican anyway. Their hearts belong to the Democrats.
Let’s see, Does La Raza support the Republican party ? Have they EVER supported Republicans ?
Sounds like Colin Powell complaining.
....statements like this are little milestones on the road to the coming race war....see Thomas Chittum’s “Civil War Two”

SCREW!!!!!! hispanic activists!
Hey La Raza — KISS MY REFRIED BEANS!!
This group doesn’t and isn’t going to vote Republican anyway. What is the threat?
This whole thing, LaRaza, and all the other race groups in this country show the true Orwellian nature of what we have become.
Janet Murguía can piss off.
