While trouble may be brewing for U.S. Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, a statement to consider comes from the District-based Latino Coalition, which is taking CNN host Jack Cafferty to task for calling Mr. Gonzales "the president's water boy" during a telecast of "The Situation Room" on March 12.
"This kind of rhetoric from a journalist is simply unacceptable and racist," said the nonprofit's president, Robert G. Deposada. "We cannot be hypocritical when it comes to racist statements in our national media. If the attorney general was an African American, and Mr. Cafferty would have called him a water boy, the entire media establishment and civil rights organizations from across the country would be calling for Mr. Cafferty's firing."
Mr. Deposada continued, "Attorney General Gonzales is a highly qualified and very accomplished professional. For anyone to call this highly respected Latino a water boy is simply outrageous and shows enormous amounts of prejudice." The group, which first aired its concerns April 20, suggests Mr. Cafferty be fired.

100% correct. Even CNN has a right to have idiots on their staff - saying whatever the want to say.
Dear Mr. Deposada,
You are a big pendejo.
Tu mama.
My best regards.
Interesting reading.
Thank you for the link.
this is probably an Administration-friendly ethnic group that wants to emphasize the hypocrisy of the left.
Elimine su boca con el jabón, vergonzoso.
My feeling is Mr. Deposada does not know English as shown by the article. Therefore, I thought I would “communicate” to him in Spanish so there would be mistaking what I said.
Robert Deposada is a prominent Hispanic race pimp. But in this case, he is right.
The only reason they are upset is because they think Cafferty was insulting Gonzalez.
They don’t realize that who he was trying to insult was the president. Cafferty belongs to that vile breed that has no respect for the office, and insults the man every chance he gets.
Cafferty says something dumb nearly every time he opens his mouth.
I may have been misunderstood.
For me, this is not whether one is for or against Gonzales. This is about the word police.
I really, really resent someone telling me what I can and can’t say because it might offend someone.
Soon we are all going to be communicating like that African tribe that speaks by making clicking sounds with their tongues. Their name escapes me.
If anyone can lend a hand here about the name of that African tribe, I would appreciate it.
Regards
I think they are making the case that this is closely tied into this racially charged comment...see link
It's despicable that he gets a pass on such a comment.
It's "despicable" that you're pretending you don't know the idioms of the English Language.
"Wetback" has absolutely nothing to do with Carfferty's comment. Nothing. To say it does is a flat-out lie.
Latino is not a racial category; these dammed idiots need to be ignored, stupid wetbacks.
Persnickety Jack Cafferty
Makes me want to laff-erty.
