W.H. to Sotomayor critics: Be 'careful'

Since you say it, it must be true. ;) In fact I think the more you say it the more true it becomes.

Once again, remind me not to piss you off.

No more than the more you say it, it must be true.

WE have different views on what has been said.

But I do have to point out some differences.

YOU think Alito was a good choice and Obama's choice bad.

I think BOTH were bad choices. That says a lot about you more than me in that you accept the racism of Bush's Appointee but not Obama's.

But I think I at least try to support my assertions in depth. I didn't support Harriet Miers either because I believed she was a homophobe.
 
Personally it is the left I would have marked out as more likely to be universalist and for uniformity rather than for diversity, the supporting of "oppressed" minorities to get privileges and special treatment not withstanding.

Between Limbaugh and this....The right-wing/GOP are showing their true color.

Is this an argument?

A lot in the left today seem to be obsessed with minorities they consider "oppressed" and getting state privileges and intervention to aid them at the expense of the rest of society.

Nah....we just believe in the importance of diversity....the GOP/right-wing are showing that their only interest is in the viewpoint of the old white male.

This debate is showing that there is no room for differing viewpoints in the GOP.

Why then are you often intent on enforcing uniformity and universalism? Why then does this support for diversity often seem to boil down to privileges and state intervention benefiting "oppressed" minorities at the cost of the rest of society?

How so?

How so?
 
I'm finding it very ironic and amusing that the right wing is talking about racism.....:doh
It is neither ironic nor amusing.

You forget, it is the lunatic left that perpetuates the myth of race. The lunatic left drags race kicking and screaming into every public space they can, including Dear Leader's teleprompter.

After all, who raised the specter of ethnicity in this instance: Sotomayor herself. And when called on it, the lunatic left's cowardly knee jerk response was "oh, we don't want to talk about it any more."

It is neither ironic nor amusing, but pathetically perverse that the lunatic left refuses to let racism die the ignoble death it deserves.
 
It's about the way our nation has been run for the last 200 plus years..

It's about time we wake up and change..

Yes because everyone knows that the country as a whole has been run into the ground for the last 200 years. Why dont you show me a country that has come as far and as fast as we have before you start complaing about the way we have been run. I guess you could look at south america and find much better ways to run the country or wait maybe you cant.
 
Golly Gee Whiz the leftists think it's okay to make racist remarks if your talking about white people and claim them taken out of context when there is no context that makes it okay. And belonging to La Raza (The Race) which goes hand in hand with Aztlan, and MEChA is far from a reason to praise anyone.
The radical left is threatening people for telling the truth. There has to be a better Hispanic choice out there.
People who cry that we who oppose a racist are racist are a joke. Look at what the so-called tolerant all encompassing open arms party have done to minorities nominated to high offices by in the past.
 
Sounds like Palin's qualifications...white and a vagina...like her hero Hillary.

You do realise that on the vast majority of issues Hillary and Obama were on the same page right.
 
Has our society change or evolved in several ways reguarding race and heritage over the last 200 years? Shouldn't everybody in every race and every economic level have equal representation in the Supreme court?

It has nothing to do with race. It has more to do with equal representation of the way our society has evolved and will continue to evolve.

Stuck in the past is not a good place to be.

So what you are telling me is that crimanals and those to lazy to work should have the same representation as those that work hard and pay taxes. If you contribute nothing to society you should have no voice in society.

...and yet...through this debate, the GOP/right-wing are showing just the opposite of what you claim.

There is no room for anyone who does not share the viewpoint of the old white male in Limbaugh's GOP.

You fit in perfectly with the GOP. Never change.
 
Are you suggesting that her being "latino American" makes her "third world"?


You would prefer the old white fart Neaderthal way of doing things?

No I prefer the third world barrio way of doing things

Ya know, I consider Hillary Rodham Clinton to be a lying, devious, deceitful, two-faced, power-hungry bitch. I don't like anything about her whatsoever.

But even I can acknowledge that Hillary Rodham Clinton was an accomplished lawyer and sufficiently good at doing the senatorial job of delivering the pork for New York that the Empire State sent her back to the Senate for a second term. She's a bitch, but she's a bitch with brains.

Saying that all Hillary has for credentials is being white and having a vagina.....is beyond stupid.

Yes...because minorities are "crimanals" and "lazy to work"...and the whites are those who "Work hard and pay taxes"....:doh

You fit in perfectly in today's GOP.....never change

Is it me or has anyone else not got that implication from what the right have been saying in this debate?

We don't agree with some of the left's obsession with "oppressed' minorities and their intent on using the state to grant them privileges like affirmative action and special rights but little has been said opposing the views of old, white males; except from you.

There are no old white male liberals? Is this disneydoofus some kind of satirical running joke?

Its you.

The true color of the GOP is emanating clearly here....and I'm loving every minute of it. This couldn't have played out any better.

No...absolutely there are old white male liberals. Its just that our party is comprised and welcomes all others....the GOP doesn't and this debate is simply cementing that.

Is this supposed to be some kind of argument? Because it doesn't appear that way. You seem to offer little in the way of arguments and seem to not even answer questions, excatly how it has "played out" well for you I don't know.

Why is it that almost the only politicians you ever hear being called "power hungry" are women? And why would it even be mentioned at all? It's kinda a requirement for being in politics.

Its playing out well because the GOP/right-wing are displaying that they don't want anyone of color who brings a different viewpoint to the Supreme Court.

We've known that for a long time....they've just never been so vocal about it as they are now.

This can only further alienate them as the party that they have become.
