What do rightwingnuts call a non-profit that's backed by a whole bunch o' corporate sponsors, from Allstate Insurance, American Airlines, and AT&T to UPS, Verizon and Wall-Mart?
Yep - "The Admiral" over at Lake Minnetonka Liberty said that, just yesterday, in a post that tried to trash not only Sonia Sotomayer, but an established and respected civil rights organization, too.
To be fair, and so as to not take "The Admiral" out of context, he followed that up with:
I know the loony left will be jumping all over this one. I'm not comparing them with the Klan of old, but with todays Klan. The 1950's and '60's are over with, that's not what we are talking about here. Let's not make me point out the chaos they caused a few years ago with the stated purpose of disruption of commerce, looting, etc... which by the way, they accomplished.
Yeah, "right."
Now, keep in mind Sonia Sotomayor was first appointed to the federal bench by Bush The Elder - and confirmed by the Senate; she was subsequently promoted to the Appellate Court by Bill Clinton, and AGAIN confirmed by Senate vote. And her membership in La Raza was well-known, back then.
Yes, but unlike "The Admiral", they live on Terra Firma.
Oh - and they also aren't the bedrock of today's GreedOverPrinciples party. Sadly, "The Admiral" appears to be "mainstream" - "mainstream" that is, in today's republiCon party.
