'He Is Latino' Why Dems borked Estrada, in their own words.
Wall Street Journal ^ | 15 Nov 2003 | Wall Street Journal

Posted on 05/26/2009 1:31:51 PM PDT by KRyanJames

November 7, 2001/To: Senator Durbin

"The groups singled out three--Jeffrey Sutton (6th Circuit); Priscilla Owen (5th Circuit); and Caroline [sic] Kuhl (9th Circuit)--as a potential nominee for a contentious hearing early next year, with a [sic] eye to voting him or her down in Committee. They also identified Miguel Estrada (D.C. Circuit) as especially dangerous, because he has a minimal paper trail, he is Latino, and the White House seems to be grooming him for a Supreme Court appointment. They want to hold Estrada off as long as possible."

Wondering why MSNBC didn't pick up on this when they dared Republicans to vote against Sotomayor this morning.

Because MSNBC is completely, totally, without doubt, in the tank for Barry O.

There’s no longer even a pretense of objectivity.

The GOP MUST filibuster this lesbian.

Did you come up with "in the tank" or did you copy it from Limbaugh?

I'll bet you are clever enough to come up with your own phrase.

Apparently the Democrat legation to the US Senate is NOT the deliberative party they have always claimed to be.

Marching orders first. Then the raising of endless din.

And whatever they do, don’t break ranks. No mercy for the hesitant.

Their “strategy meetings” are something like a Nazi pep rally. You have to admire their discipline, if not their objectives.

It’s simple. They wanted to get the first Hispanic pick. The supposed party that cares about minorities wouldn’t look good if the Republicans did it first. That’s why Obama’s first pick is Hispanic. This way they’ve pandered votes for years to come even if Obama doesn’t get another SCOTUS appointment.

Ok, I understand now. Democrats don’t like Latino males. They only like Latino females.

Democrats have no principles. Neither does MSNBC, for that matter. They’re a perfect fit for each other.

Only if they're straight.
