Tom Tancredo's Race To The Bottom.


That's Tom Tancredo, the badly-toupéed, two-bit racist who pals around with karate-chopping, two-bit racists:

For years, conservative writer and activist Marcus Epstein has worked with the mainstream of the immigration restrictionist movement. He wrote speeches for former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., during his presidential bid, and he’s still working as the executive director of Tancredo’s Team America PAC, alongside Bay Buchanan.

Epstein has been targeted for years by civil rights groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the One People’s Project, who have obtained Epstein’s guilty plea to a hate crime he committed two years ago.

From the U.S. Attorney’s factual proffer:

On July 7, 2007, at approximately 7:15 p.m. at Jefferson and M Street, Northwest, in Washington, D.C., defendant was walking down the street making offensive remarks when he encountered the complainant, Ms. [REDACTED], who is African-American. The defendant uttered, “Nigger,” as he delivered a karate chop to Ms. [REDACTED]’s head.

Epstein has pled guilty and will be sentenced on July 8, although he changed his plea to water down an admission of guilt into the belief that “the government could prove me guilty.” A spokesman for Team America PAC confirmed that Epstein is still at work until he leaves for law school in the fall, and an official statement is forthcoming.

Ironically, Tancredo has taken a large public role, telling multiple cable news outlets, that Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor “appears to be a racist” and the civil rights group La Raza is a Latino KKK without the hoods or the nooses.”

Tom Tancredo alleging racism is like an arsonist yelling "fire."

Felon's Assault.

From ThinkProgress, further evidence that felonious burglar G. Gordon Liddy is insane:

Yesterday on his radio show, conservative host G. Gordon Liddy continued the right wing’s all-out assault on Judge Sonia Sotomayor. First, just like Tom Tancredo, Liddy slammed Sotomayor’s affiliation with the civil rights group La Raza — and referred to the Spanish language as “illegal alien“:

                LIDDY: I understand that they found out today that Miss Sotomayor is a member of La Raza, which means in illegal alien, “the race.” And that should not surprise anyone because she’s already on record with a number of racist comments.

Finished with the race-based attack, Liddy moved on to denigrate Sotomayor’s gender:

                LIDDY: Let’s hope that the key conferences aren’t when she’s menstruating or something, or just before she’s going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then.

Finally, Liddy disputed the entire idea that there’s anything wrong with the paucity of women and total lack of Hispanics on the Court:

                LIDDY: And everybody is cheering because Hispanics and females have been, quote, underrepresented, unquote. And as you pointed out, which I thought was quite insightful, the Supreme Court is not designed to be and should not be a representative body.

Nothing Like A Smart Hispanic Woman To Freak Out GOP Confederates, Eh?


Pat Buchanan doesn't think Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayer is very smart, Mike Huckabee thinks her name is Maria, and FOX News and the rest of the nuts on the right are sure that the socialist Obama has nominated a Puerto Rican she-devil.  
That's one helluva big tent those GOP Confederates have pitched, isn't it?
