Obama picks Sotomayor for Supreme Court -- bye bye Republican Party

Then I won't be terribly shocked at your future racist phrases directed towards any 'brown or black' that discovers the failures of liberalism/socialism and checks out conservatism. I hope the surprise doesn't bother you as well.

Let me reuse the term again .. you don't have to concern yourself with what bothers me .. you sir, are irrelevant to my beliefs.

The color of skin does not enter into my conclusions about an person's thoughts. I encounter "brown and black" people who rail against socialism all the time. Often in the course of structured debates .. and I treat them no differently than I do you.

I'm not a liberal, so I can't defend liberalism .. other than it's a damn sight better than conservatism.

You keep trying, but I don't see racism.

There are a myriad of issues a latina woman would have a better perspective on than a white male, especially one from a priviledged background.

You can call that racist if you choose .. but I'll call it the diversity necessary to make the highest court in the land more just.

Here's what I call racist .. a court full of old white men.

You can call it whatever you want as you defend the "right" of old white men to control everything.

That dog ain't huntin' anymore. Time to bury it.

Your problem is that you don't see the racism that the great group of Conservative egalitarians, Limbaugh, Hannity, and Gingrich find so evident.

It is racist and also sexist to assert that somehow a latina woman would have a better opinion than a white male.

You don't understand words if you can't see that.

"As a white woman I am certain that due to my experiences I would make better decisions than a black man could."

Nothing racist about that, is there?

If you're talking about being a woman you absolutely have more experience and have the capacity to make better decisions on women's issues than a black man.

Nothing racist about that.

I'm only a racist in the small minds of people I don't care about .. like you.

But in the minds of people who know me and who've worked with me, they seek me out because they know I am not racist, but will speak truth as I see it .. like the white guy sitting next to me today while we apply a patch to a client system, and who is a partner in my business.

He finds your posts quite amusing and wondering why I waste my time talking to idiots.

No, I knew he was a man and from merry ole' England. I was simply jerking his chain. You know it is rather insulting to be called.... a woman.

As for the rest of your post, read the thread carefully. I posted her comment AND said essentially the same thing you just did.

I sussed out that you held a similar opinion, but I thought you could use some intellectual firepower as you struggled to clumsily explain yourself.
