It's not about "Race". Stop screaming like a liberal harpie...It's not helpful. It's about him being conservative and you know it. More importantly, anyone with a BRAIN knows it. Your accusations ONLY make us all look like a bunch of race-baiters. Just like liberals commonly look.

Give it a rest. We're better than them.

While I admit that the Estrada filibuster is more about ideology than anything else, I think it is wrong to say the Dems are not racist.

Just look at affirmative action. The whole thing comes down to "What color is your skin?" We have a job opening, are you the right man for the job? I won't know until I get a look at the color of your skin. You want to attend my University? I dunno. We're pretty particular -- what color is your skin?

Name me a Republican platform item that smacks of racism. There isn't one. For the Dems, it's all about promoting abortion, and the judgement of people based on skin color.

Quite frankly, it is about race. Estrada had the audacity to succeed without attributing his success to the Left ... and furthermore had the temerity to be a Republican.

This is something Democrats cannot forgive, they truly believe that any non-white, non-male, American citizen is their property.

Haven't you noticed that Republican nominees who happen to be minorities seem to be always subjected to a torturous confirmations? Thomas, Chavez, Reynolds, Kirsanow, Estrada, Boyd, etc. How many white Conservatives have had to face this same sh*t?

Respectfully disagree, While it may not, in your opinion, be "about race", I believe a majority of liberals are racist. As proven by their idiotic support of skin color based preferences.
"Only make us look like a bunch of race baiters", seems a tad absolute to me.

It's called having a little fun by turning the tables on them. :-)
