10. Sen Tancredo Is A Worthless POS & Waste of Human Flesh

What the hell is wrong with these Reichwing Cretins? Justice Sotomayor is the best supreme court candidate in years. She probably should be Coronated not simply just sworn in. She is magnificent and the supreme court cries for someone of her talent. So what if she attended or belongs to La Raza. I think La Raza is a very worthwhile organization promoting hispanic concerns that benefits all of America. I applaud the Justice for participating in society and lending her name and support of La Raza.

I am of French-Canadian heritage. I've belonged to French-Canadian Snowshoe Clubs, a french church, and even belong to Alliance Francaise it never prevented me from becoming a State Trooper. So what is the big deal? Italians often support and attend NIAF National Italian-American Foundation events in DC, and there are dozens more that all people can affiliate with. Tancredo speaking for republi'cons' apparantly reviles hispanics because they supported Obama Big Time and he's acting out his racism and ignorance in retaliation. La Raza does not deserve the insulting description the Senator gave it as an organization nothing more than the KKK without the hoods. He owes a public apology to the US Senate, an apology to all hispanic people, and especially a contrite apology to La Raza. Tancredo not only insults La Raza but insults all the Forture 500 corporations that fund La Raza in one way or another. Why is it, all of America is wrong but only Republi'cons' are right? Is there something seriously lacking in their mental makeup?

God Damn these Reichwing bastards who have the gall to get on public airwaves and defame and insult an entire class of people--my brothers and sisters!

16. Welcome to DU

Luckily, that idiot is a former Congressman. I think his district bounced him in 2006. California took out a lot of trash that year.

:hi:

2. Isn't THAT special!! I actually think stuff like this is wonderful, in a perverse way.

You don't even have to say anything to argue a point, simply "Let's go to the tape..."

[spiritual_gunfighter]

3. I wonder why cable news outlets give this guy a forum

and give his warped view of reality creedence. Especially Ed Schultz.

[DesertFlower]

5. i wonder too, but

then i realize if they didn't we wouldn't know just how ignorant they are. the media is also constantly accused of having a "liberal bias".

[spiritual_gunfighter]

8. Good point ..n/t

[SemiCharmedQuark]

4. La Raza is like the KKK without all the racism and violent shit against other ethnicities!

Think about it people!

7. Republicans will do, say anything to get noticed for presidency-Fuck just look at goofy old Gingrich

[underpants]

9. Does he know that the GOP need MORE votes to get elected?

:eyes:

So the coordinated campaign to make "illegals" kissing cousins of terrorists went over so well they decided to come out with this approach?

Good luck with that Tom.

12. Don't tell them that - let them find out in 2010 when they are down

to 10% of the voters....If they keep this nonsense up, maybe even less.

They are still "refining" their RW base....down to the REAL Republicans, who will select a presidential candidate in 2012 from a crop of foul mouthed idiots and make their huge loss in 08 look like a squeaker.
They are so crazy they don't realize how crazy they are.

13. Maybe this is their "new idea"

:shrug:

[old mark]

20. Lately, I think, they don't have "ideas"......just large amounts

of stupid.

11. Somebody take that man's tongue away. La Raza is an affirmative action group for Latinos to garner

pride for their race and to be able to participate in this
white man's world, a great place to hone self respect and self
esteem for those cultures considered second class but aren't
really.  Same as a feminist group or group of disabled folks. 

This guy does not have the right to be on television.  Why do
we let people like this and rush limbaugh have airtime?
Because the wealth who run the media are sicko.

14. OMG- The Extreme Repugs have outdone

themselves here,

Didn't Pres. Obama have a tape during the campaign where he
stated,(re: Repugs)

" they are proud of being ignorant" ?

Nailed it, President Obama!

I know a number of people who are in La Raza, nothing
could be further from the truth!

15. The KKK rides again.

This is the asshole that had illegal immigrants installing a super theater in his home. A standard piece of Republican shit.

[rateyes]

17. Viva la Raza...

...and, I'm a WASP.

[burning rain]

18. God knows, indecency doesn't surprise me, coming from this guy and his ilk.

But it does seem odd that it wouldn't bother many conservatives to make themselves look completely absurd by suddenly morphing into antiracist crusaders when they've spent their lives scoffing at the problem of racism.
