I spent last week arguing with my Jewish friends that she, not Benjamin Cardozo, IS the first Hispanic Supreme Justice nominee--more on that in future posts. This week the focus has been whether or not Sotomayor is a racist. Funny isn't it that when an ethnic minority is proud of their background, it's called racism? Maybe she was a little too proud of being Latino so they had to figure out a way to bring her down a notch.
So a Latino organization called La Raza, the Latino version of the NAACP that Sotomayor is associated with, has most recently been equated with the KKK and Rush Limbaugh is calling Sotomayor a "reverse racist."
Watch the first clip by Sotomayor's detractors and then the second from the president of La Raza.
