Could be, but regardless, Cornyn is all about one thing: Getting Cornyn re-elected every six years. He is afraid that dissing Hispanics in Texas is a losing proposition.

He had a primary challenger, but it meant nothing. He is sounding like his Democrat opponent would have done. He is “reaching out” and will fail in the process.

Hey Cornyn...She *is* a racist pig...she *is* a sexist pig...and she *is* a socialist enslaver!

And *you, you Rockefeller RINO...are a masochistic suicidal lar, with no backbone or honorable convictions. Go on and get together with the other slit nose, sleps with the damned whores, like Spector, Collins & Snowe.

I wonder how Cornyn keeping winning in TX, as most people don’t really know who he is. He is like a “stealth senator” whearea Tower and Gramm were always visible, warts and all.

The American people have bought into the mantra that a minority person is “incapable” of “racism” that only people waving Confederate flags are “racist”.

I imagine Cornyn and Hutchison would both join La Raza if they would let them in the door.

You are right, the Republican primary voters have very short memories. They just rubberstamp the “friendly incumbent” thinking he can win again.

Cornyn is so spineless that even McPain denounced him for not being sufficiently supportive of amnesty for illegals! The Republican primary voters have taken leave of their senses.

This makes Cornyn a racist enabler...and likely one himself.

Cornyn said: "Neither one of these men are elected Republican officials.

True. Does that mean once someone becomes an "elected Republican official", they no longer need to think critically?

She accused herself, in her own words.

Cornyn is an idiot on this.

Thanks to idiots like Cornyn, this is now considered a badge of honor.

So just what is she then, Senator?

It was ok for the Democrats to falsely accuse Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment yet you can’t use Sotomayor’s own racist comments against her?

Racial pandering, Sir, is what got us in the mess to begin with. You’re just throwing gasoline on the conflagration.

Nice try, but you miss the point! Her racism then affects how her view on your ‘points’ are translated into law! How the hell can separate her racism and her views????

Worse, he’s further engraining the training that we’ve trained the left with for decades.

Threaten to call us “racists” and we won’t criticize your policy and ideology.

Neither one of these men(Gingrich/Limbaugh) are elected Republican officials. I just don't think it's appropriate...

So, if you didn't have the idea first, as an "elected Republican official", then it ain't got merit, right?

Stinkin' idiot politician.

Why, why do we vote these stupid asses into office?

And then keep voting for them!

Motion to Sotomayor: Race shouldn’t matter

John Kass

May 29, 2009

What would happen if I began a column about the corrosive effects of government-sanctioned racism with the following idiotic idea?

“I would hope that a wise white man with the richness of his experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than an African-American or Latino who hasn’t lived that life.”

If I wrote such nonsense, I’d be denounced as a racist. And President Barack Obama would never nominate me to the Supreme Court.

But Obama did nominate Sonia Sotomayor to the court. In 2001, while giving a lecture on the law and cultural diversity at the University of California in Berkeley, Sotomayor declared race and gender “may and will make a difference in our judging.”

She aimed at a belief expressed by Supreme Court justices that a wise old woman and a wise old man would reach the same conclusion in deciding the law.

“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life,” Sotomayor said.

Jeepers. If I’d written that with the races reversed, they’d send me to a racial sensitivity training session and give me a rat cage to wear on my head.
