		<description>Sotomayor and La Raza

Excellent cases can be made both for confirmation of Appeals Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the United States Supreme Court and for filibustering her into submission and ultimate withdrawal such as the Democrat minority did to George W. Bush’s pick for the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, Judge Miguel Estrada.

It may be recalled that the eminently-qualified Estrada   was eventually beaten down because of one serious flaw in his resume’.  He was so abused that Estrada’s wife may have died shortly after as a consequence.

As with Sotomayor, he too had a compelling history and was a Hispanic nominee but unlike Sotomayor, he suffered from the terminal malady of unreconstructed conservativism and thus was totally unacceptable to fair-minded Senate liberals.

If they didn’t exactly “Bork” him, they trashed and distorted his record sufficiently to make the guy surrender in frustration.  Estrada subsequently entered private practice.

Unlike Sotomayor, Estrada had no unseemly affiliations in his background, although some would allege that Sotomayor’s associations are quite seemly, especially that with La Raza.  

This is all but moot anyway since Barack Obama’s choice to fill the shoes of David Souter is a shoo-in and, as I previously argued, it would be counterproductive and a waste of effort and ammunition to go after Sotomayor.  See “Save the Ammo and Confirm Sonia,” http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=1034.  Hence, any discussion of Sonia Sotomayor at this point is irrelevant.

What is worth further investigation, however, is La Raza, a group of which Sotomayor is a member and which proudly published her 2001 speech.  In that lecture/speech she said in her infamously racist and stupid fashion, “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life:” http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&amp;pageId=99420.

The National Council of la Raza, the Race, en Ingles, the NCLR, lapped it up...

		<description>vivo, i am not under the kingdom of zerobama, YOU ARE, so you should be the one afraid of mental health programs.

OH but you are a citizen of the world (that&#039;s the liberal way of saying you are illegal in USA)

So you were really dropped in a dungeon by your parents? LOL, this is why you are so acid and envious of successful people.

Loosers like you behave like that.

And I repeat, you are going to have the racist latina in the court, not me.

Enjoy your racist administration.</description>

Notice to readers:  these two freaks are going to be in trouble when the government&#039;s mental health programs are cut off pretty soon.</description>

		<description>The same voices so indignant here about identity politics are quite mum about Christian identity politics, and the murder that movement has recently claimed responsibility for. Randall Terry, a pretty mainstream character in the right wing view, is on record announcing his complete lack of concern over a hate-speech accelerated terrorist crime. What say you, oh brave defenders of fairness and democracy. Should we drum this Terry fellow out of the mainstream?</description>
