White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales, President Bush's nominee for attorney general, got the backing of a group that promotes driver's licenses for illegal aliens, no immigration law enforcement by local and state police and amnesty programs broader than the administration's proposal.
The National Council of La Raza, which bills itself as the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., welcomed the nomination of Gonzales to succeed John Ashcroft.
"We are very encouraged by the Gonzales nomination," said the glowing endorsement by La Raza. "We previously criticized the Bush administration for not having an Hispanic in the cabinet since the departure of former HUD Secretary, now Senator-elect, Mel Martinez. We are pleased that one of the first acts since the presidents re-election both rectifies that situation and marks an historic milestone for the Latino community. Never before has a Hispanic served as head of one of the four major Cabinet posts secretary of State, Treasury, Defense and attorney general," said Janet Murguia, NCLR executive director and chief operating officer.

La Raza (NCLR) endorsements would be like KKK or Nazi party endorsements --- you'd have to question if there are really ties but if there are not you'd have to realize they could be trying to cause trouble for him and nothing more.
I think if Gonzalez belonged to any race-based group it should be examined just as a white belonging to a race-based group should be. It might or might not be important --- for example if as an 18 year old college student he joined a race group but later changed his mind about that kind of thing it could be okay depending on how radical the group.
hey asswipe.
if you will reread I said "alleged"
idiot...and you're no newbie.
what's your excuse for being a race baitor....comes naturally?....can't resisit being all smug and self righteous?
intoxicating isn't it?
I am interested in truth, not allegations of no substance. I have noticed that looking for the truth annoys some posters here, such as yourself, I am always happy then I can expose a smear and a lie, I know I have done a good job when the smearers and liars squirm and protest. Thanks for making my day.
yeah...me neither.....unsubstantiated allegations bug me too.
like freepers who live to scream racism when anyone challenges anything about a minority ....boy howdy that really bugs me too.
they sound like shrill pandering Dems or Rinos.
I can expose a smear
Expose something you and your smug self righteous ilk here live for that is?
Folks here have a right to question this man about his race based org memberships or as was argued here earlier about his abortion rulings in TX w/o the likes of you hurling the R-word. It's really that simple. Anyone starts hurling racial epithets, the kitties will come soon enough and that is rare. You're tilting at windmills ...but feel free....have at it....the illusory phalanx of FReepers white supremacists await your charge...lol
Some freepers live to call others racists....it makes them feel virtuous I surmise.
Some minority and otherwise freepers applaud the demise of anglo culture here....they want it to happen...and quickly yet they pretend to be conservative.
Those are facts around here.
I will not surrender my culture so easily.
