Turns out that even when the GOP finds a non-white to run fo office, they are too busy trying to be white to bring any diversity to the table. The following comes from the guy wanting to be Nevada’s next governor, Republican Brian Sandoval, who can’t decide whether he wants to hype his race or not.

After being asked a hypothetical question about how he would feel if his children were targeted in Aryzona-style fashion, we receive this response:

“My children don’t look Hispanic.”

So, he’s okay with a racial profiling law since his kids look white? Wow, that’s just sounds like standard GOP rhetoric. “There’s no racism because I haven’t seen any and don’t give me facts to the contrary.”

More on the backstory of this here.

Truly pathetic stuff.

Not quite in line with the story, but here’s an editorial cartoon on the general subject:

The family of a 87 year old lady used her obituary to attack Harry Reid. That’s nice, huh?

More here.

Some other “compassionate conservatives” in Utah published the names, addresses, and – in the cases of pregnant women – due dates of likely undocumented migrants in their state.

Hey! Nothing like sending your angry tea baggers to kill a brown baby that would be an American if allowed to live. And yes, that is EXACTLY the motive in those cases.

In both those instances, the perps were LDS members. This is not to say every member of that church is an evil, racist prick. You could single out any conservative religious mob for having that ilk in it’s midst. I know plenty of decent human beings that are Mormon that don’t subscribe to that kind of hate. That said, the slush fund for Prop 8 *was* helped by the church.

No, other conservative twits abound, regardless of religious affiliation.

Old-ish news, but there’s a farmer in Missouri who painted a sign on a semi trailer, denouncing Democrats as “parasites”.

Now, some folks lit said trailer on fire – twice. This is wrong, even if this hate is on the side of an interstate. It’s his land and his right to be an a-hole. I guess.

The fun part here is that said angry farmer who is pissed about people taking in below minimum wage welfare payments is himself a leech on the system, for the price of over a million dollars in farm subsidies.

Look, if folks on welfare are parasites, million dollar subsidy babies like him are full-blown leech colonies. Plus, he’s some kind of scam artist that fleeced new parents in a baby crib scheme.

Nice guy. But no worse than the rest of his party really.

A post concerning the lies and damned lies from the bigoted Republicans concerning immigration.

Wit from Ben Franklin. Sort of. Comedy Central video link.

I swear, Aryzona is being led by a complete lying, bigoted jackass.
