Republican Right-Wing Wage Racist/Sexist Attack Campaign on Sotomayor

Right Wing Hate Machine Launches Vicious Campaign of Racist and Sexist Attacks on Sotomayor

The rabid right-wing base of the Republican Party has launched a shocking racist (and sexist) campaign against Obama Supreme Court nominee Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Newt Gingrich has called her a "Latina Racist" and Rush Limbaugh, the great advocate of "color blindness", has launched his white racist campaign claiming Obama and Sotomayor hate white people. It gets worse...

The Republican right-wing is showing is UGLY head. Hopefully the American people will reject the racist hate campaign against Sotomayor and see through the right-wing rhetoric the truth--it is the right-wing which is being racist.

Even Republican Party leaders are getting nervous and trying to distance the party from the right-wing hate directed at her, warning that it will hurt the party, especially among the growing Latino voting population.

The Hillary Factor



Lots of people have been expecting, suggesting that Obama should let Hillary Clinton go after Sarah Palin, and maybe Obama hoped she would, but Hillary will have none of it.

On Trail for Obama, Clinton Avoiding Palin "Cat Fight"

In fact, some Hillary supporters are defending Palin!

I wonder if these articles are connected to this one:
Poll Shows Big Shift to McCain Among White Women
A Washington Post/ABC News survey published on Tuesday found most of McCain's surge in the polls since the Republican National Convention was due to a big shift in support among white women voters.

Could these white women be racist?

Maybe Hillary Clinton, and some of her bitter supporters, want Obama to loose, and want Palin/McCain to beat him to avenge her from the primary defeat and Obama passing over her for V.P. (and so Hillary can run again in 2012)??

And I'm tired of hearing all these claims of "sexist" attacks on Hillary Clinton from the OBAMA Campaign... I CHALLENGE ANYONE TO DOCUMENT ONE INSTANCE OF A SEXIST ATTACK ON HILLARY CLINTON BY BARACK OBAMA OR HIS CAMPAIGN!

Imus And Conservative Bigotry

CBS radio and MSNBC have suspended Don Imus for two weeks after his latest racist/sexist outburst, calling the Rutgers women's basketball team "nappy headed hos". This is one of a LONG list of racist comments made by Imus, FAIR has a number of documented cases. A two week suspension is not enough. Bigots like Imus should not be rewarded and encouraged by mainstream media at all. The Imus racist outburst comes in the same week that Newt Gingrich tried to apologize, in Spanish, for his recent racist comment calling Spanish a "ghetto" language. We could go on and list the racist and sexist blather spewing from the mouths of Fox's Bill O'Reilly, CNN's Glenn Beck, and of course Rush Limbaugh. Add all this to the racist politics of the Republican Party and it is very clear that the conserative movement uses racism, sexism and homophobica to appeal to white men. According to recent polls, white men and the Republican Party have a lot to be worried about, as women and minorities gain political power and vote them out of office.
