MediaMatters – Steele tells Hannity: “If you go back and listen to that exchange, there was no attack on Rush” — A Big FAT Lie!
Among many other issues, the HATE rhetoric against African Americans and Latino immigrants, stand out as the primary causes of the GOP’s problems.
Those moderate Republicans who thought Michael Steele could help reel in African Americans and Latinos, into their imaginary BIG TENT, can kiss that wish goodbye and good night!
Brother Steele is clearly a wimp — and is totally incapable of taming and/or organizing the right-wing of the Republican Party. He will never effect any meaningful change in this party of THUGS, BIGOTS and RACIST NEO-NAZI EXTREMISTS.
Michael Steele is just another BLACK TOKEN — being used to provide an illusion of diversity. He missed an opportunity to assert himself two days ago, when he should have stood up to Limbaugh, and challenged him. That opportunity is irretrievably lost, and Mr. Steele is set to be a powerless figurehead …..a yo-yo to be kicked around like a dead football.
Sooner or later, he will resign or will be forced out.
All of them …. leaders of the GOP, have caved in to Limbaugh, the ANGRY WHITE CHRISTIAN MALE — and that will be FATAL.
Until the GOP fixes its archaic 1800′s attitude and RACIST practices and policies, I don’t see any SANE African Americans jumping ship.
As for Latinos, the now three year old Republican campaign of HATE and XENOPHOBIA, which has resulted in several LYNCHINGS, ……I think may have driven Hispanics, and for that matter, many other immigrant communities, away from the Republican Party for good.
Just before Obama took over, idiot Bush “took a final dump” on his already super-soiled legacy, by pardoning two “Hispanic Ex-U.S. Border Patrol agents,” who had been convicted of shooting an unarmed Mexican drug smuggler.
The two men, Texas-based agents Jose Alonso Compean and Ignacio “Nacho” Ramos, were serving prison terms of 12 years and 11 years, respectively, after being found guilty of assault with a dangerous weapon, defacing a crime scene and violating the smuggler’s rights.
Compean and Ramos shot admitted drug smuggler Osvaldo Aldrete Davila in the buttocks as he fled a van full of marijuana. They argued at trial that they thought Davila was armed and that they shot in self-defense, but the prosecutor said no evidence linked the van to Davila and that the agents didn’t report the shooting and tampered with evidence by picking up several spent shell casings.
They were fired after their convictions, and all charges but obstruction of justice were upheld on appeal.
One former Justice Department official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity given the sensitivity of criticizing president Bush, decried the commutations. “These men were totally unrepentant, there was obstruction of justice, they shot a man in the back. I am speechless. These are terrible clemency cases,” he said.

I have said this before: Anybody who commits an act of theft (smuggling) of any kind belongs in jail. Similarly, anyone who takes the law into his own hands — and then shoots anyone, including smugglers, in the back, “for sport,” unprovoked or just because he/she thinks he/she can get away with it (with the aid of RACIST ANTI-IMMIGRANT public sentiment) — is a cold-blooded murderer, or in this case — a cold-blooded attempt to murder, followed by a cover-up.
Compean and Ramos belong in jail. These two “thugs in uniform” were sentenced to jail by a federal jury of their PEERS.
They thought that they are above the law, and therefore chose to shoot an un-armed man, who posed no threat to them — IN THE BACK!
But, that has not prevented the self-ordained independent “Populist Propagandist,” CNN(s) and America(s) modern day Dr. Joseph Goebbels, Lou Dobbs, from describing these two VIGILANTE THUGS as “outstanding Border Patrol agents.”
No they are NOT Mr. Dobbs, especially when we all know that a racist like you will pivot on anything… anything that gives you an opportunity to demonize immigrants, especially Hispanics. These two are just but vigilante bogeymen — a “useful” conduit through which right-wing extremists like Dobbs and his filthy cousins at Fox News — gleefully HIDE BEHIND while promote their agenda of hate against ALL immigrants.
By pardoning these two, Bush has emboldened the anti-immigrant movement — A movement of Racist White Americans (Mostly Republicans) whose sole aim — is to rid America of all Hispanics, Blacks and even non-Anglo whites, if the opportunity presents itself.
Numerous cases of vigilantism and racist attacks on immigrants go un-reported in the United States. Families of immigrants are being petrol bombed, threatened and killed by racist thugs. Immigrants(legal and “illegal”) are under siege, and are terrified all over this land.
By releasing these two, George W. Bush has proven one thing — When he initiated the immigration debate three years ago, it was not a heartfelt gesture, rather, it was a despicable political maneuver that ended up falling flat on its face.

About 10 percent of Nashville’s nearly 600,000 people speak a language other than English in their homes, according to census data. The city is 5 percent Hispanic and home to the nation’s largest Kurdish community and refugees from Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
Last month it happened in Long Island, this month it is Brooklyn, New York. In August, a bunch of barbaric white youths lynched Luis Ramirez, a Latino Immigrant in Pennsylvania. Latino immigrants are prime targets for White Racists emboldened by the now three year old Republican campaign of HATE and XENOPHOBIA
A few hundred people on Sunday marched in Brooklyn to protest last week’s fatal beating of a 31-year-old Ecuadorean man — an incident authorities say may have been a hate crime.
The demonstrators — holding signs reading “No more hate crimes” — walked a half-mile in the neighborhood where police say Jose Sucuzhanay was hit in the head with a bottle and beaten with an aluminum baseball bat on December 7.
Sucuzhanay died of his injuries Friday at Elmhurst Hospital, hours before his mother arrived in New York from Ecuador, his family said. Read full article »
