Linda Chavez of Center For Equal Opportunity Calls Sotomayor Racist: Is Chavez right?

Creamy July 17, 2009 01:21:45

Linda Chavez is chairman of the Center for Equal Opportunity and a political analyst for Fox News. Linda Chavez's biography has also noted that Linda has held the White House director of public liaison title and was a staff director of U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.

Linda Chavez of the Center for Equal Opportunity pointed out before the Supreme committee that Judge Sotomayor often refers to herself as a wise, Latina woman." Linda Chavez, though chairman of the Center of Equal Opportunity, believes that Judge Sotomayor has been attempting to get a seat on the Supreme Court by using her race to her advantage.

Linda Chavez stated that if Sotomayor were a white man who suggested that whites or males made better judges, then "we would not be having this discussion. Because the nominee would have been forced to withdraw once those words became public."

Do you think Judge Sotomayor should be denied nomination for the Supreme Court?

    She was picked for three reasons:
    1. Sex
    2. Race
    3. Far left activism

    But we know that this horrid bitch will still get her seat.

    Is calling Sotomayor on the carpet and for good reason. American's need to be sharp about their country and realize that racism is not just a white issue.

    Sotomayor is far more than a racist against whites, she is very much against men! Something may well have happened in her past and is affecting her judgement.. she does not belong in the High Court system much less the Supreme Court.

    A Fox news person calling someone else a racist is the pot calling the kettle black. There is more rampant racism on Fox News than anywhere else in the world except for a Klan rally.

    White men don't have to claim they would be wise and objective because it is assumed. I love how defending one aspect (or two in this case) of your identity doesn't allow you a forum to stand on any other issue, including fairness.

    I find it very offensive that she holds a higher premium on punishing people for the misdeeds of their ancestors than on rewarding individuals for their hard work and skill.

    Apparently, she left equal opportunity behind a long time ago and joined the falsification and propaganda club. So, the hot air she now exhales can be safely dismissed.

    Of course she's right. Does this quote sound right to you?

    "A white man would be a better judge than a latina woman."

    If that sounds as bad as you know it sounds, why is the reverse any better?

    Sotomayor is a freaking racist, but she gest away with it because she's a minority in both a racial and gender respect. I hate political correctness. It's sickening.
