  1. Hear that? . . . . . . . . That's the sound of the Republicans keeping their mouths shut because if they were in power they'd do the same thing. It's not cool, it's not what anyone wants to do, but it needs to be done. It sucks, but GM's immediate demise may have set off an economic tidal wave. Do we know for sure? No, but did you really want to find out?

  3. In Kansas, I believe you can perform the procedure if the mothers life is in danger. I'm sure that's not an easy decision for anyone.
  4. I don't know any pro-abortionists, do you?
  5. Jesus H. Christ. It's my friggin' post you moron.
  6. Are you purposely playing stupid? Which part of "this has nothing to do with Anthropology" don't you understand?
  7. Jeez Louise, this has NOTHING to do with Anthropology. (Do you REALLY think that?) It's what the community thinks of themselves. Most "Hispanic" leaders often say that the term is broader than the literal translation - "the people" "the community" "this collective, yet not homogeneous, group we call ourselves." It's all very simple yet there are those who either don't get, don't want to get it or purposely disparage it for short-term political gain. Which are you?
  8. Good luck criticizing Obama for the Somali situation. I mean, you may have 5% of a Americans on your side. Maybe you can also attack Santa Claus for breaking and entering.
  9. May be the most ignorant post I've ever read. It's difficult to know where to begin but if you think Hispanic is a PC/liberal term then there is likely no point engaging with ignorant morons like you.
  10. There's also a huge difference between racial and racist.
  11. You are a parrot of nutballs like Tancredo. That is NOT La Raz's motto, never was. Get a friggin clue.
  12. I still say this person is another Hogboy. Either way, he should be ignored.
  13. Good thing most Americans say your wrong. He has held countless interviews and press conferences without a teleprompter and has demonstrated a high degree of intelligence, knowledge and ability to communicate. The Right's chilidishness on the teleprompter thing is great, it just shows they got nothin' on Obama. Please keep trying to convince everyone that Obama is stupid and clueless, that's been working so well. I feel stupid just trying to explain basic politics to people like you.
  14. For once, look something up to see the story behind the story.
  15. You know why these sophomoric attacks don't work? Because Americans don't think Obama is stupid. Actually, they think he's quite bright and will reasonably give him the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't know every one of the literally thousands on government agencies; especially four months in. Likewise, this attack would not work with Bush I or Clinton. Bush II's problem was people really didn't think he was all there.
  16. How about educating yourself before making lowest common denominator statements? Go look up WHY isn't called La Raza and explain what is so offensive. Moreover, It actually IS like the NAACP, Bnai Brith, and, in many ways, like the Polish and Irish societies.
  17. How about this one? Can you guess who uttered this beauty about Judge Sotomayor? "Let's hope that the key conferences aren't when she's menstruating or something, or just before she's going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then." ANSWER
  18. Seriously, are you joking or are you really that ignorant? I make no apologies for the whack-jobs on the left (including a few on this board), but do you EVER do any of your own research or is there a one-stop center for daily right-wing stupidity? Are you just a "little" embarrassed you're parroting Tancredo's nutball rants?
  19. The only thing "partisan" is that you took this GOP rant hook, line and sinker without verifying any facts. We'll help you out with this newest candidate for Snopes. Here's the link b/c I can't copy the graphs: Look before you jump News Flash: Car Dealers are Republicans (It's Called a Control Group, People) by Nate Silver @ 6:50 PM A meme that is currently picking up traction in the conservative blogosphere is that the list of dealerships to be shuttered as a result of Chrysler's bankruptcy contains a disproportionate number donors to Republican candidates. There have been furious efforts to prove this contention by looking up campaign contributor lists at the Huffington Post, Open Secrets, and other places. There is just one problem with this theory. Nobody has bothered to look up data for the control group: the list of dealerships which aren't being closed. It turns out that all car dealers are, in fact, overwhelmingly more likely to donate to Republicans than to Democrats -- not just those who are having their doors closed. Here, for instance, is what Huffington Post's Fundrace site turns up for those who list their occupation as "auto dealer": Republican donations outstrip Democratic ones by about 8.6:1. Next, let's try "car dealer": For some reason, those persons who describe themselves as "car dealers" are just slightly more likely to donate to Democrats than those who call themselves "auto dealers". Nevertheless, the list of contributions tilts Republican by better than a 3:1 margin. Next up, "automobile dealer": Roughly a 10:1 advantage for Republicans. Finally, we'll look at the slightly more obscure formation of "automotive dealer": Big Republican edge here too. Combining the data: Overall, 88 percent of the contributions from car dealers went to Republican candidates and just 12 percent to Democratic candidates. By comparison, the list of dealers on Doug Ross's list (which I haven't vetted, but I assume is fine) gave 92 percent of their money to Republicans -- not really a significant difference. There's no conspiracy here, folks -- just some bad math. It shouldn't be any surprise, by the way, that car dealers tend to vote -- and donate -- Republican. They are usually male, they are usually older (you don't own an auto dealership in your 20s), and they have obvious reasons to be pro-business, pro-tax cut, anti-green energy and anti-labor. Car dealerships need quite a bit of space and will tend to be located in suburban or rural areas. I can't think of too many other occupations that are more natural fits for the Republican Party. Unfortunately, while we are still a nation of drivers, we are not a nation of dealers.
  20. Your whining is kinda pathetic. I agree she should be properly grilled but you may want to read what she wrote and said since your "brown people can make decisions better" nonsense is not a good start to dispell charges of knee-jerk racism. Perhaps use your own brain before blindly accepting the talking points. You don't have to like that she isn't a conservative but you may want to think over your position if you don't want to appear to be another partisan extremist who uses easy labels to unfairly (and classlessly) define others.
  21. A right-wing conservative trashing Obama and his SCOTUS pick. Enlightening. Queston: do you truly believe that ajudge's background and life experiences play NO part in how they rule? Tha's insane, ignorant or at least disingenuous. Then why do justices disagree? Why aren't all opinons unananimous? I find one of the most facinating things about the SCOTUS is the human side. The history is littered with great stories of what influences judicial thinking and how one's life story can explain a viewpoint. The best example (off the top of my head) is Justice Black.
  22. So? Can you tell if that's good or bad? Why?
  23. You poor bastard, you must be severely conflicted on this case. Or do you even realize that? Judicially speaking, "real" conservatives would praise the court for not legislating from the bench.
  24. So . . . what the WSJ is saying is that Sotomayor is a judicial moderate. Interesting.
