So, justice is not blind after all…

These days, justice is just dumb.

To take this to its logical conclusion, when it comes to potential judicial appointees and their take on the US constitution, Ogabe only wants a Justice who is DEAF, DUMB, and BLIND!

Selective amnesia regarding self-reliance, personal responsibility, the Founding Fathers, and paying taxes are also a plus.

If latinas are such great judges, why are all the nations in Latin and South America in such sad shape?

Just wonderin’ …

Great question, Chemosabbe!

The obvious answer here: it’s Bush’s fault!

Everybody knows only white people can be racist, and only men can be sexist.

More irreverent, inventive political satire from JT. Lovin it!

White men are seeing the beginnings of their grip on power being taken away and the fear is palpable.

…so, it’s OK to disenfranchise white males…hmmmm….

…in that case, how can they be blamed for holding onto power, if that can be said, for all those years? Knowing that I’d be one day shunted to the side with disgust by an artificially empowered and disgruntled gaggle of “victims”, wouldn’t it makes sense for me to dig in and hold on?

…and yet, it was white men who ended slavery.

…now, I’m not being pedantic or (hopefully) predictable and tiresom…you see, I’m not talking about 1865 in America…I’m talking about 1833, relatively peacefully, in the British Empire, which is to say (at the time) in the world…they first ended the trade in human flesh, and then ended slavery entirely…and for years patrolled the seas to capture slavers and liberate slaves…and were largely successful…except in vast portions of Africa and the Middle East not under their control, where it exists to this day….

…bad white guys….

…even with the 3/5ths clause, the Constitution (again, the work of white guys) is a pretty singular notion, taken as a whole. Now, with this “empathetic” nominee about to be railroaded through a flaccid congress, the work of those dead white guys will pass into history….

…silly white guys….

…no, you’re right, dcwvu…damned silly white guys are teetering on the rim of the ashcan of history…and I’d join you in dancing on their graves…except that that would be racist. You see, according to the American Heritage Dictionary (if you can credit a definition coming from something called “American Heritage”), racism is:

1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

…and, if I have read your cutting post correctly, you’re lumping all white guys together (def. 1), and are dissing them (def. 2)…so, I don’t wanna play….

…if, later on, you need help lumping up another group, this time using some other criterion than race — religion, perhaps, as with the Jews — and then help gleefully celebrating their demise, I’m at your disposal…wouldn’t wanna use race to do it, though…racism, you see, is so unfashionable….

How about they have an adult answer instead of of joining in on the faux outrage surely to build as this goes on….

…to point out an observation probably not original with Rush, but oft repeated by him, liberals are intellectually lazy…they’re right, are on the right side of humanity, and so they don’t feel it necessary to defend their point of view…it’s self-evidently right, don’cha’know….

…that makes ‘em intellectually flaccid….

…furthermore, liberals don’t respond well to reason…Rush doesn’t emote on cue, doesn’t talk in emotionally apolcalyptic imagery, doesn’t waste time communicating about communication, circular adolescent girl sleep-over soul bearing stuff and nonsense like that…so, our liberal friends don’t tune in because they’d soon lose interest….

…the Establishment Republicans, who don’t have any more in the values department or the intellectual spine department than their brothers on the left, and are political whores in equal measure, can’t see Mr. Limbaugh contributing any quotables to their empty sack of electable sound bites…so, they aren’t interested, either….

…so, people like Mr. Limbaugh are excellent societal litmus tests….

nice screen name

…merci…I come by it genetically….

Why do you hate white men?

As the mother of a truly awesome little white male, I’m sick and tired of all the anti-white male bigotry.

Funny thing is, white males founded this country, and for the most part, white males built it into the greatest nation on earth. Oddly enough, as ‘their grip on power is taken away’, the country is going to hell in a handbasket. Hmm…what a coincidence.

Translation: She benefited heavily from Affirmative Action.

Some day a Puerto Rican born citizen might put a Kenyan on the Supreme Court.

1. Latinas are supposed to be hot.

2. Ms. Soto-my-ear gives me reason to think burkas are not that bad an idea.

So, she can understand precisely what since she is female and Hispanic?

What is WRONG with white males? They just don’t get it, I guess.

Clearly. Why Thomas Edison alone invented more things than all the “Latina” women who every lived all put together. He was probably just showing off or he stole his inventions from “Latina” women. Boy! Talk about someone who just didn’t get it!
