Specter on Sotomayor’s “wise Latina” comment: What’s wrong with a little ethnic pride?
posted at 7:59 pm on July 28, 2009 by Allahpundit
Via Breitbart, a reminder that if you haven’t made your primary donation to Joe Sestak and general election donation to Pat Toomey yet, there’s no time like the present. The answer to this moron’s question: There’s nothing wrong with a little ethnic pride, but declaring that your gender and ethnicity makes you a superior judge to those not similarly blessed goes beyond a “little,” a fact that would have become instantly clear had a white male said the same thing. So reliably in the tank for the Democrats has this tool become that he’s now defending a remark Sotomayor herself won’t defend.
But never mind that. I challenge you to get through the part where he talks about women’s “insides” being different from men’s “insides” without giggling.

I’m cool with that too. At least 25% of each.

I didn’t say that white wise males could make better decisions than Latinas…therefore I’m well within the rules.
Seriously, these hypocrites make me sick.

I believe a wise white man will reach a better court decision than any other race. Especially latinas.
……….
Hmm, what changed here so that my comment is unacceptable, but Sotomayor is going to be on the Supreme Court?
…….This country drives me absolutely nuts sometimes.

How many wise Latinas signed the Constsitution?You know-the document that defines the role of judges.
I think I would make a great Supreme Court Justice in…fill in the blank.

The Supreme Court is weak. Everyone knows Supreme Courts were better and stronger when everyone on them was white and male.

Undoubtedly what they were thinking when they crafted the Nuremberg Laws.
(Note to hyperventilators: I’m not equating the two, I’m answering the man’s question.)

Unmarried woman went 70% for Obama. Unmarried woman are a social problem–essentially just another aggrieved minority.

My dad was a WWII Vet. He told me often that if Satan himself openly ran on the Dem ticket the Democrat party would support him.
Never understood that when I was little. Dad was obviously smarter than I thought.

Entagor on Specter: What’s wrong with a little rat moving on to a bigger piece of cheese?

“My dad was a WWII Vet. He told me often that if Satan himself openly ran on the Dem ticket the Democrat party would support him.”
From his mouth to Satan’s ear, apparently. What prince of darkness worth his pitchfork and pointy tail wouldn’t be expected to take good advice like that?
So now we know.

I didn’t think this vile turd could grovel any lower. Boy, was I wrong.

As Glenn says, we are truly in the best of hands.

Your right Sen Specter so i guess i could say White men make better CEO than black men or maybe white women make better mothers than Latin women.Thanks for your insight it makes me feel better you small mind little jerk.

Of course there’s nothing wrong with a little ethnic pride as long as your not white. Then it becomes racism and you should be very, very ashamed of yourself. Wake up America! The liberals hate white america and plan to breed you right out of existence on this continent.

“When she refers to being a Latino . . .”
Maybe Spector doesn’t understands the different insides?
