"I said you were distorting what they said...." Yes you did. And you were wrong then just as you are wrong now. Here's the article I was referring to when I made my comment..... Message 19588437 Had you followed the discussion, you would have know that's where I got my comment from. As for whether it is perceived to to be a racial issue, here's a good way to tell....... When a group makes a list of those things they deem "dangerous" about someone they oppose & that person's race is listed among those items considered "dangerous", it IS a racial issue. If it had nothing to do with Estrada 's race, "he is Latino" wouldn't have been on that list . PERIOD. Estrada 's race was considered one of the major factors making him "dangerous". That's a fact. There are no if's, and's or but's about it. These "special interest groups" & Senate Democrats are openly acknowledging that because he's "Latino", he's going to be treated quite differently than if he were, say, a white male or an Asian American, etc. That's very wrong to so obviously & openly admit that racial discrimination will be a major factor in Estrada 's nomination process. Next thing, someone is going to tell me that Affirmative Action guarantees everyone is treated equally everywhere in the USA & my elected Democratic representatives are 100% in agreement.
