Did Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor once say that "the time has come to end white male oppression by castrating every white male until they are no longer dominant in Western culture"? The urban legend debunking site Snopes.Com answers the question.

Of course not. She said only RICH WHITE REPUBLICAN MALES should be rounded up and castrated.

Get your damned facts straight.

love snopes!

love snopes!

I wonder if Bush would have chosen to go to war in Iraq if he had been castrated???? Wouldn't it lessen his aggressive tendencies. Maybe it's not such a bad idea after all.
At least do Cheney.

This is the first I heard of the castration comment but before I even read the snopes thing I wouldn't have belived it. What kind of dumbass public figure would say something like that?

My issue with her is that she does seem to come to some of her decisions with a racial bias. Maybe that is neccesary to balance out the racial bias of the other side however personaly I would prefer to get rid of it completley and I don't see this as a case of fighting fire with fire.

If you met my hyperactive, aggressive, Alpha male, corgi-terrier mutt who'll hump anything (any I mean anything) you'd know castration is vastly overrated. Plus there's been a lot of doppelganger puppies in the neighborhood even since he was neutered.

Considering the fat pigs most white males marry in the US I would say the castration is self-inflicted.

My issue with [Sotomayer] is that she does seem to come to some of her decisions with a racial bias.

What would you expect from someone who was a member of La Raza for more than 6 years?

Go behind the scenes -- not the "polite" front La Raza puts out for public consumption -- and take a look at the racist groups La Raza refuses to disassociate themselves from -- such as Mecha and other radical, anti-white (or anti-anyone who is not Hispanic) groups. All La Raza members staunchly believe in no borders, making this country bi-lingual (but only for Spanish), and reconquista of our West and Southwestern states.

Sotomayer is too immersed in the culture of groups like La Raza to be a neutral and fair judge. Just wait until her first Supreme Ct. case when it's between a Hispanic and a Black. Or any case where an illegal Hispanic is involved. Sorry, it has nothing to do with her being a female or an Hispanic and everything to do with her "pro-Hispanic race only" attitude in too many facets of her life.

La Raza is the Hispanic equivalent of the KKK only they keep it more pc and under wraps so they can continue to milk donations from our politicians.

What would you expect from someone who was a member of La Raza for more than 6 years?

Are black judges who belong to the NAACP or Jewish judges who belong to the Anti-Defamation League biased as well? The fact that she belonged to La Raza does not mean she participated in, or endorsed, every single activity of the group.

Comparing it to the KKK is pretty wild. How many people has La Raza lynched?

Comparing it to the KKK is pretty wild.

But we love to paint with a wide brush here on the DR.

If it weren't for the KKK and the Nazis we wouldn't have much to insult each other with.

Did Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor once say that "the time has come to end white male oppression by castrating every white male"...

Please Sonja, at least first ask us gals what we think of "castrating every white male" before you bring out your machete. We kinda like it when our men have all their equipment attached. Thanks!


(Yes, I'm aware Sotomayer never said any such thing. Just having some fun with it. lol)

Black Judges and Jewish judges aren't members of organizations that have been shown to have elements that wish to re-conquer parts of the United States of America to reincorporate into Mexico.

The fact that she belonged to La Raza does not mean she participated in, or endorsed, every single activity of the group.

No, it doesn't. But if she is aware of those elements of the organization and remains a member, it makes her a questionable pick.

"Please Sonja, at least first ask us gals what we think of "castrating every white male" before you bring out your machete. We kinda like it when our men have all their equipment attached. Thanks!"

Bah. Have you ever seen how cuddly and loyal and affectionate tomcats get when you excise their little cojones?

There's potential for the human race there, I'm telling ya.

The last I checked the NAACP and ADL were not advocating taking back the US for Africa or Israel.

Like I said, it's the racist groups who La Raza continues to endorse behind the scenes -- radical racist groups such as MECHA. The same group I saw in 2006 in downtown L.A. where almost a million illegals had poured into the streets with many signs saying they were going to "take back this land" and I saw MECHA members hang my U.S. flag upside down on a flagpole here in SoCal and fly a Mexican flag over the top of it.

And NOT ONE WORD of protest about any of it by La Raza. La Raza keeps their nose clean in public 'cause they want our tax dollars.

LA RAZA

Would YOU, Rcade, be happy belonging to, and be a proud 6 year member of, an all white organization which called itself "The Race"? Whose motto still today is "For the race everything, for those outside the race nothing." Would you?

Black Judges and Jewish judges aren't members of organizations that have been shown to have elements that wish to re-conquer parts of the United States of America to reincorporate into Mexico.

Sarah Palin's husband belonged to an Alaskan separatist group. The Republican governor of Texas suggested his state might see a need for secession in the future.

The idea that "elements" of La Raza want to reconquer the U.S. has no bearing on Sotomayor. "Elements" of any group are stupid.

La Raza does NOT advocate reconquista, Chris.

How sad that you are so far in the tank over this issue that you post an Ann Coulter link.

Whose motto still today is "For the race everything, for those outside the race nothing." Would you?

#17 | Posted by CalifChris

That is a lie Chris.


"Another misconception about NCLR is the allegation that we support a 'Reconquista,' or the right of Mexico to reclaim land in the southwestern United States. NCLR has not made and does not make any such claim; indeed, such a claim is so far outside of the mainstream of the Latino community that we find it incredible that our critics raise it as an issue. NCLR has never supported and does not endorse the notion of a 'Reconquista' or 'Aztln.' Similarly, NCLR's critics falsely claim that the statement 'Por La Raza todo, Fuera de La Raza nada,' ["For the community everything, outside the community nothing"] is NCLR's motto. NCLR unequivocally rejects this statement, which is not and has never been the motto of any Latino organization."

I'd never heard this line before.

She's qualified, she's experienced, she will get confirmed.

But if she were a White male, and said being a White male would lead to better decision making than a Latina Woman, the racist tag would be thrown and it would stick. As it should. What Judge Sotamayor said was racist, we all know its true, its just that given the fact that she is a Latina Woman, we're choosing not to make a big deal out of it... which I think may also be pretty racist.

Would YOU, Rcade, be happy belonging to, and be a proud 6 year member of, an all white organization which called itself "The Race"?

If I was a member of a racial minority, I might join a group for the advancement of that group.

The National Council of La Raza is the nation's largest Hispanic advocacy group. The group is respectable and includes many Hispanic leaders from all political persuasions among its membership. Both President Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain gave speeches to the group during their presidential campaigns.

Do you think they would have done that if it was -- as some are claiming -- like the KKK?

the time has come to end white male oppression by castrating every white male until they are no longer dominant in Western culture

She also is a rapist, child molester, mass murderer, thief, and finally didn't do all her homework in school.

ugh...

I don't think La Raza was considered the equivalent of the KKK when John McCain spoke at their conference last year :

blogs.suntimes.com

Or when George W. Bush spoke there...or Karl Rove...

Tancredo et al are just throwing mud against the wall.

"I don't think La Raza was considered the equivalent of the KKK when John McCain spoke at their conference last year...Or when George W. Bush spoke there...or Karl Rove..."

And this is a recommendation of La Raza how?

La Raza Unida ("the Unified Race"), also known as the La Raza Unida Party, is an association of groups formed in the late 1960s and early 1970s with chapters throughout the American Southwest, most prominently in California, Colorado and Texas. As the organization explains, "La Raza Unida [in Texas] organized around electing Chicanos to Boards of Education and City Councils. ... The spirit and force of La Raza Unida was truly embodied in Texas under the leadership of Jose Angel Gutierrez, a student and [the] President of the Mexican American Youth Organization." Gutierrez, an open borders advocate who founded La Raza Unida, has stated, "We have an aging white America ... They are dying. ... They are sh---ing in their pants with fear! I love it! ... We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him."

I take this comment like i take Swift. It is meant for Shock Value, but problem i have is the idea that instead of Working harder and earning it. The way She feels to get it is to Handicap the white man. You see that belief she has in her Ruling on the firefighters as well. The last thing she wants is a level playing field she, she feels that all white men must pay for the sins of there fathers and that is BS. Plain and simple.

that's cutting off the head above the shoulders, right?
gee, i hope so!

This castration philosophy has been a part of the Feminist Agenda - with some lezzy overtones, naturally. What I want to hear is her refutation of female superiority, a denouncement of male bashing [though officially approved by VP Biden], and some indication that race and gender do not play a role in determining the credibility of witnesses, and the guilt or innocence of criminal accusations.

Not going to happen. Like so many others she stood mute, or confined her comments to whispers among friends, but she wouldn't have the approval of NOW and NARAL, etc., unless she signed on to the Agenda.

Like Obama signed on while in the Illinois legislature. It's the way to the top of the Democrapic Party.

OGGIE: Not going to happen.

ahhh come on!

hey AX: Black Judges and Jewish judges aren't members of organizations that have been shown to have elements that wish to re-conquer parts of the United States of America to reincorporate into Mexico.

how do you know?

GREENIE: a White male would lead to better decision making than a Latina Woman

the rest of the sentence and quote, asshat, is: than a white male who hasn't lived that life.

now maybe we might should be discussing: "hasn't lived?"

no? well, i thought not. do you by chance own an iphone? :-P

"the rest of the sentence and quote, asshat, is: than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

Who gives a crap? Why the racial distinction?

You're saying you wouldn't have a problem with Judge Roberts saying that he would make a better decision than a Latina Woman, no matter what the rest of the quote is? Spare me whatever rehearsed answer you've come up with to rebut people who have a problem with a woman who is obviously hung up on race.

Ichiro, why didn't she say that she'd make a better decision than a Latina Woman who hadn't lived that life? Huh? Why a White Male?

Only if Snoops is responsible for the stuff other people write that he lifts and posts here without attribution in the hopes that people wikll think he can actually string more than three words trogether and write in complete sentences. (The site for Snoops's plagiarism du jour is www.discoverthenetworks.org)

He also seems to be believe that "caucasoid" (not "caucasian") features found on 9,000 (+/-) human remains retrieved from the river near Kennewick, Washingtohn means the skeleton is that of "a white man." But that's probably because he had to either figure it out for himself (in which case he gets an error message) or he retrieved the misinformation from some white supremacist slash Nordic renaissance site.

"9,000 (+/-) years-old human remains..."

You're saying you wouldn't have a problem with Judge Roberts saying that he would make a better decision than a Latina Woman, no matter what the rest of the quote is?

Judge Roberts is a white man. He was never invited once in his career, I will bet, to an event about white judges or male judges or asked about how his white male perspective informs his work.

Judge Sotomayor is a Hispanic woman. She was invited dozens of times to events about Hispanic judges or female judges and asked how her Hispanic female perspective informs her work.

You must have ruled at dodge ball.

Would you have a problem with a white Judge saying he would make a better decision than a judge of a different race/sex? Its a yes or No question.

And by the way, my answer to that same question is Yes. I would have a big problem with a White judge saying he would make a better decision than a judge of another race or sex.

But in the end what does it matter? She is going to be confirmed, and in reality won't have much of an effect on this court since she is replacing Souter.

He wasn't an Indian doc. What's your point?

Would you have a problem with a white Judge saying he would make a better decision than a judge of a different race/sex? Its a yes or No question.

It's a yes or no question only if you insist on being overly simplistic about a complex issue.

If a white judge had been asked many, many times in his career to describe how being a white judge informed his work, I would judge his comments in full, not cherry-pick one sentence and make a mountain out of a molehill.

I took Sotomayor's "wise Latina" remark to mean that a judge brings his or her life experience to the bench, and a diversity of such experience in a court makes for better judgments.

When you DS libs are presented with any facts at all, you attack the person that put forth the facts instead of refuting the facts. You throw a bunch of shit into the air and run for cover.

You look up the facts on La Raza Unida and tell me what is wrong with my post about them. Don't confuse it with la raza. Two diferent organizations.

"I took Sotomayor's "wise Latina" remark to mean that a judge brings his or her life experience to the bench, and a diversity of such experience in a court makes for better judgments."

Then why did she bring up the race of other judges, and why specifically White judges? Would her experiences make her better (and she did say better) than a Black judge? How about just a more privileged Hispanic female judge?

We can do this dance from now until she retires from the Supreme Court, but I don't think anyone can say with a straight face that if you switch her statement around and have a White Male judge saying the same line (races reversed of course) that that judge would still be up for consideration to the Supreme Court.

He wasn't an Indian? Of course he was an American Indian, you boob. There's absolutely no evidence that anyone, other than the ancestors of the people who've been called "Indians" for the past 500 years or so, lived in North America prior to 1492 (with the sole exception of a small, failed Norse colony from Greenland at L'Anse aux Meadows in Canada circa AD 1000). Kennewick Man sure as hell wasn't "a white man," as you've erroneously claimed, and you continuing to say so marks you as, at best, ignorant.

Since this thread is about Judge Sotomayor, and she has nothing to do with the organization you mentioned, who the flip cares?

Then why did she bring up the race of other judges, and why specifically White judges?

She said today that she was making a play on words in response to Justice Sandra Day O'Connor quoting an axiom about "a wise old woman and a wise old man."

That's an absurd premise. White male judges are never asked how their whiteness and maleness informs their work. If they were asked, they would have quotes to explain too.

Sen. Graham kept trying to make the same point you're making -- boo hoo, woe is me, the poor white male who can't say anything un-PC. Even if it's true, who cares? Are a lot of white males out there suffering from trouble their mouths got them into?

Sniper, I think you may be able to save yourself at least a little embarrassment if you ask yourself this question (and provide an answer that you are absolutely certain is, in fact, accurate): "Do I know the difference between the use of the terms 'caucasoid' and 'caucasian' when it comes to matters of physical anthropology?"

What's your point?
#42 | Posted by Sniper


Not to put too fine a point on things, Snoops, but, basically, I think I can sum it up this way: you're an ignoramous.

"She said today that she was making a play on words in response to Justice Sandra Day O'Connor quoting an axiom about "a wise old woman and a wise old man.""

Right... when did she say this? Today. At her Supreme Court nomination hearing. Right, that totally explains everything.

"That's an absurd premise."

Why, because it proves the hypocrisy of those who try to get White men fired for racial remarks? If a White judge ever said he makes better decisions than a black/hispanic/asian/indian/
etc Male/Female judge his Supreme Court aspirations would be over.

"Even if it's true, who cares?"

I would hope everyone would care about racism.

"Are a lot of white males out there suffering from trouble their mouths got them into?"

Don Imus says yes (And the kids he was about to do a charity for suffered a lot too).

Right... when did she say this? Today. At her Supreme Court nomination hearing. Right, that totally explains everything.

She said it in the speech the remark was taken from too. The context of her remark was clear.

I love that context is taken into account when its a person of another race making racist comments.

She said she'd make better decisions than a person of another race. If a White man had said the same thing, his career would be over. Its that plain and simple.

Giving her special treatment because of her race, is just as racist as denying her a position based on her race.

So your position is that when people make potentially racist comments, the context should be ignored and their careers should be over? And since Sotomayor's career is not over, it should be ended in the interest of racial equality?

That is a microscopic issue to base your opposition to a Supreme Court justice on.

My favorite moment of the Jeff Sessions segment today was when he was trying to put Judge Sotomayor down by saying he preferred the philosophy of Judge (forgot the name), and then cited it.

Without missing a beat Sotomayor smiled and pointed out that the judge he had just cited was in the gallery there supporting her nomination.

: )

"So your position is that when people make potentially racist comments, the context should be ignored and their careers should be over?"

I realize the silliness of comparing an appellate court judge and supreme court nominee to a radio DJ, but that is exactly what people tried to do to Don Imus.

If you were being sued and the person suing you was hispanic, would you be happy or a little concerned to see Judge Sotamayor behind the bench at your trial?

Bias and racism aren't microscopic issues to base opposition to a supreme court justice on. They're astronomically large.

If you were being sued and the person suing you was hispanic, would you be happy or a little concerned to see Judge Sotamayor behind the bench at your trial?

Knowing what I know about Sotomayor's long record as a judge, I wouldn't be the least concerned about racial bias.

Bias and racism aren't microscopic issues to base opposition to a supreme court justice on.

That's not what you're doing, though. You're saying that because a single sentence she made in a speech sounds racist to you, that's all you need to know.

I firmly believe that POOR and not RICH men of all races should be castrated unless they can prove themselves and their spawn to not be a burden to society, and therefore our government.
Is there a pill that men can take? Breeding should be done only by people with brains and means. Presently, looser deadbeats get welfare and food stamps, an medical care that we all pay for for their illegitimate kids. We are kind of condoning this behavior in this country.
The normal family men who are trying to work their tails off to have a family are denied all of these things. The rich men are having to pay more of their share through the famous "hillary tax".
castrate the losers and spay and neuter all of the hater racists too.

Boil down what she said: A person of a certain race and sex would do a better job than a person of another race and sex.

Ignore who she is, what she is up for, and who she was appointed by, its a racist statement.

As I said, you're making an important issue -- Sonia Sotomayor's fitness or unfitness for the Supreme Court -- into a microscopic one.

No one could survive the standard you've created here for her, in which one sentence is taken out of context and used to tar her entire career. Under your standard the Supreme Court would be nine empty chairs.

There are racist remarks on record by the 9 current justices?

I'm not ready to believe that there aren't any Judges in this nation that aren't racists.

And she said the same comment 7 times over the years--so it's not an isolated comment.

It's racist and she FINALLY came out and said it was "BAD".

As for La Raza--they have members who extort racism and hatred for whites.

Sotomayor also was on the board of PRLEDF for 12 years.

They strive for 'poor people'--including the statement and filing lawsuits against the gov't for Medicaid to provide funds for poor women to get abortions.

Because 'when the gov't doesn't provide poor women with Medicaid to get abotrtions--it is the same as slavery.'


Another out of the mainstream organization that she raised money for for 12 years.

They better give this scrutiny.

After all they skewered Alito over CAP --some college club at Princeton he barely remembered. Accusing Alito of being a bigot.

Relax. Most of the judges in the US are white males, and thus unburdened by racial grievances that might cloud their judgment.

Are black judges who belong to the NAACP or Jewish judges who belong to the Anti-Defamation League biased as well?

Possibly.

Most of the judges in the US are white males, and thus unburdened by racial grievances that might cloud their judgment.

Most of the judges in the U.S. are white males who've never been asked how being white or being male affects their judgment.

Under the impossible standard that GreenDad espouses, any Supreme Court justice nominee who is a woman or a minority is going to be a racist or a sexist, because it's easy to take a remark about race or gender and make it seem like bias.

Sotomayor's not a racist. She's been a respectable jurist for 17 years at the appeals court level and was a respected figure in the law for many years before that.

Her comment was blatantly racist.

Does that mean she's actually a racist person?

I don't know, nor do I care. Regardless of her qualifications the Dems are going to approve her, no matter what.

This is precisely why I haven't even bothered to look into her resume or really comment on her much at all.

She could be horrendous and the Dems would still approve her, in lockstep.

And she can't be so bad,considering I never heard of her before,I consider that a plus

Quick Question/Observation:

What does it say right under the Snopes Logo?
oh yeah, "Rumor has it", in case you missed it...

Get a life you wienie and do something about it.

Rove's permanent Republican majority didn't pan out too well did it. Cheer up, the Republicans ruled long enough to destroy the middle class, they achieved their goals.

"I want to leave the U.S."

Who is stopping you???

"She could be horrendous and the Dems would still approve her, in lockstep."

The Dems don't do anything in lockstep unlike the Republicans. When was the last important vote when the Dems voted 100% either way, now, how about the Republicans???

from above...

Sniper, you're saying Sotomayor is/was a member of La Raza, but you're making a distinction between "La Raza", and "La Raza Unida".
SanAn was just saying that since Sotomayor is NOT a member of "La Raza Unida", why did you bring it up.

"We need a Female latina on the S.C. My ass!"

Who's talking about "needing" one?

"As long as its Ok for the Left it's a good thing... Any opinion to the contrary is attacked and spat upon..."

Are you suggesting left-wing opinions aren't attacked on DR?
LOL, really? I've been attacked from BOTH sides, and not always without reason.

"You Idiots don't care if they burn and rewright the constitution as long as it reflects your fucking agenda!"

Ouch, please don't talk about Dick Cheney that way, he's very sensitive.

"We need a Latino Woman on the s.c. like we need a hle in the head."

Again, who's talking about "needing" one? We don't "need" a Latina on the bench, but her being a Latina isn't going to hurt, is it?
What are your thoughts on the two Italians on the bench?

"The first latina woman on the S.C. Who cares... Can she do the job. I DON"T THINK SO."

You don't think she's able to sit on the SCOTUS and be effective?
Really? Why?

"You dont care if SHIT is sitting on the S.C. "

Obviously, we care quite a bit.
Just out of curiosity, though, whom do YOU support that's currently on the bench?


Gosh Rogue, are you trying to live up to your chosen name in declaring that "La Raza" doesn't mean "The Race" and is not so understood among Latinos using it in the context of the organization.

Here are some definitions of "Rogue."

rogue

Noun
1. a dishonest or unprincipled person
2. a mischievous person
...
4. an inferior or defective specimen

Adjective
1. (of a wild animal) having a savage temper and living apart from the herd: a rogue elephant
2. inferior or defective: rogue heroin [origin unknown]


There's a lot of parsing going on in your attempt to minsinform us concerning the meaning of "La Raza" in the context of the organization to which sonia Sotomayor belongs and has worked.

When the term "La Raza" is used, it unequivocally means the race. I'm providing definitions for "raza" as it may be used in other contexts for perusal.

raza
feminine noun
1. race (humana)
raza humana -> human race
la raza blanca -> whites, white people
2. breed (animal)
de (pura) raza -> thoroughbred; (caballo) pedigree (perro)

raza [rah’-thah]

Rogue, you use "we" when referring to Latinos. I didn't know that you had a horse in that race also.

Wow! A double minority. I can understand why you support Sotomayor. She would be for special privilege cards for you. You're acting in your perceived self-interest. That's logical and intelligent. But what's in your self-interest has a reciprocal element, which is negative to others. For every "right" granted to one, there is a covalent "liability" burdening others. I can understand why you choose your advantage. And Rogue, this time you win. A racist favoring your interests will sit on the Supreme Court. Congratulations.

Dissembling with your headline, ARCADE? Yes indeed.

Sonia Sotomayor may not favor white male castration. Whew. You're safe. But she certainly does hold many other noxious views. And the fact that she does not favor "white male castration " doesn't make her other views, which seem less obviously extreme, any less unfair and prejudicial in their application.

What the hell are you blathering about?

The bones were not American Indian. They were European or maybe North African. They can't tell skin color but the bones don't lie.

If the magnitude of your daily walking around stupidity even comes close to matching the breadth and depth of your ignorance as paraded regularly hereon the DR, you're definitely in for a rocky ride.

That said, please point me in the direction of a reputable, credible authority on Kennewick Man who interprets those bones as anything other than ancestral to modern American Indians.

I realize you're absolute rubbish when it comes to actually supporting what you say but, please, make an exception in this one case and give it a whirl.

from above...

Under definition of Rogue:

"Adjective
1. (of a wild animal) having a savage temper and living apart from the herd: a rogue elephant
