Why does the GOP hate Hispanics? (Vanity)
May 16 2009 | chicagolady

You can give me a line of excuses on why the National GOP Committee who dole out dollars for Congressional Candidates did not back my Candidacy for the Illinois 5th Congressional district (Rahm Emmanuel's seat Special Election). I have been a Republican all my life and I have been very involved with elections.

But the most important fact about this discussion is that I am of Mexican Decent.

I am a HISPANIC "hear me roar"

I am hardworking (At least that is what they say about illegal aliens) and I am a Christian. (Which they argue how good that is for the country as least when they tag it on to illegal aliens)

The GOP usually has their obligatory WE MUST REACH OUT TO BLACKS AND HISPANICS rhetoric which I hear OVER AND OVER AND OVER. When I attend meetings in Illinois all I ever see is White guys endorsing white guys in ties and suits that look like they are getting ready to make their First Holy Communion. Cookie cutter white guys, the beat goes on.

The Republican Party has no intention of reaching out to Hispanics. The only Hispanics they want are illegal aliens who provide cheap labor for the Corporations. Then the Corporations can make big campaign contributions to the little white guys in suits and ties I always see at GOP meetings.

The National Republican Congressional Committee even place ROBO Calls into the Illinois 5th Congresional District asking Republicans if they were voting for me and then tried to raise money on my back, without ever donating one red cent to my Campaign. Great Character they display Right?

Now I see a FABULOUS HISPANIC CONSERVATIVE running for Senate in Floria and the Republican Nation Party is throwing him under the bus.

Javier Manjarres of the Conservative Republican Alliance interviews the former Florida House Speaker whose 2010 Senate campaign has sparked a grassroots uprising against the GOP elite:

The National Republican Party has lost it's way. Maybe they are not rejecting us because we are Hispanic, maybe it is because they have no use for Conservatives.

I was hopeful when I read about what is going on in Florida as we speak:

"A Republican backlash is brewing against the state and national party as they anoint Gov. Charlie Crist's U.S. Senate campaign -- thereby dissing that of his rival, former state House Speaker Marco Rubio."

Now there is also a group who is doing the right thing, namely: Not one penny to the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC)

It’s not the Hispanic part the committee hates...it’s the Conservative part.

Blaming race does not become you.

Your feelings are hurt because your special group was not honored by special treatment.

Bingo.

You really do not get it. It is CONSERVATIVES they oppose. The Senate seat you’re talking about is currently occupied by a (somewhat) RINO Hispanic.

Your influence is diluted by many millions of illegal aliens.

No Republican that I know hates Hispanics. Just ones that think they have a right to our welfare system, educational system and hospitals because the managed to get across our border.

Similar situation I suppose where we tend to paint with a broad brush and are surprised when we meet conservative blacks. It is documented that 90% of them vote Democrat every election.

You are a needle in a haystack, a diamond in the rocks.

I have no problem with Hispanics or African Americans, unless they are social liberals or illegal aliens.

It is difficult to criticize the political philosophy of Hispanics or African Americans and not be called a racist. What kind of equality is this, when some people become a protected species?

With Republican candidates losing in solidly red districts, it didn’t make any sense to support someone running in a solidly democratic district. They may have hated to support her un-McCain-like, un-RINO politics, but they certainly wouldn’t’ve supported her anyway.

The national GOP and conservatives should never be confused as being in the same boat.

I think you are talking to someone who lives in Chicago.

Frankly, the Illinois 5th district is so infested with mad leftwing bombers, Commies, and reprobates, we probably can't ever win with a Republican there.

On the other hand if we could find a lifelong Democrat with a burning, visceral hatred for the Machine Democrats up there, we could run her as a Republican just for the purpose of organizing the House.

Patricia Blagojevich (Blago's wife) or Rita Rezko (Tony Rezko's wife) would be perfect. Both are members of a minority even smaller than the blacks and hispanics (Romany), they're both better looking than the typical Democrat that runs in that district, and by now their hatred for the Democrats has to be seathing hot.

My kind of RINOs to run in a RINO favorable district.

Now, about the Hispanic person who wants to run in that district ~ all I can suggest is move to another district one ~ this one has just been POWND by the Gypsies (if they want it).

NO, I have never asked for special treatment.

The only special treatment I have recieved is death threats for standing up for the rule of law/ illegal immigration.

The republican elites will say they are "looking at the big picture," but whenever they do so, they almost always seem to compromise conservative values. They need to pull their head out of their @55e5 an stop compromising.

I don't care what your skin color, gender or anything else is as long as you are not a RINO.

I never said Martinez was a conservative, I said he was a hispanic, which renders the premise of your vanity—that the GOP hates hispanics—null and void.

Yet you post a vanity thread asking why the GOP hates Hispanics.

Where is the thread about Anglo exclusion? We fail to get our way as well.
