You Stay Classy, Luis Cortez!

Unless luiscortez@hotmail.com is a parody account, I think the e-mail he sent me eloquently refutes certain Republican arguments for “Latino outreach”:

Nice article pal. Let me simply explain what happened to your pathetic white party. yes, white party. not white republican party, just white party. it all boils down to laziness. first, you jackasses brought the black as slaves to work your fields because you were too fucking lazy to do it yourselves. what happened? the slaves fucked your white women and multiplied their population while the white man was getting drunk and fishing. then, incredibly, after not learning your god damm lesson the first time, you import latinos in the latter part of the 20th century to work your construction and blue collar jobs. and what happened, they fucked your white women and multiplied their populations while you were getting drunk and watching Nascar. But worse for you, this time you really did yourselves in! why!!?? because the last time, you imported slaves from Africa. A long ways from here. This time you imported them from Latin America!! Now they are not only coming to America to work, they are bringing their whole families and starting families here!! When will you jackass white people learn???!!! Mccain, you are not “The other Mccain”. You are just another fucking idiot white man! Now get the fuck out of the country and let the latinos lead you jerkoff!

Thank you for explaining this, Mr. Cortez: Hispanics who vote Democrat don’t do so because of policy issues, but because they identify the Republican Party with white people and a lot of Hispanics hate white people.

This is of course not limited to one group. The Democrats are adept at making Republicans proxies for whatever anyone happens to hate: If you hate rich people, Republicans are the party of the rich.  If you’re gay, Republicans are the party of homophobes. If you’re female, Republicans are the party of that jerk ex-boyfriend who dumped you because your thighs are too fat.

Democrats are the party of organized hatred, and the fact that key constituent groups within the Democratic coalition openly hate each other — e.g., most black people aren’t really down for the whole “LGBT” agenda — does nothing to distract from their unifying principle: Hating Republicans as symbolic scapegoats for whatever aggrieves them.

Who taught this “Blame the Gringo” ideology to Luis Cortez? Democrats.

To people like Luis Cortez, “Forward” means stick it to the gringo, just as to the disgruntled union worker, “Forward” means stick it to the boss man.

The problem is that hate doesn’t work as a policy. And when you let your personal resentments persuade you to vote for Democrats, you will eventually discover — if you aren’t entirely stupid — that the policies of the Democratic Party don’t actually make your life better. In fact, Democrats actually end up enacting policies that hurt their own constituent groups. Yet the culture of hate propagated by Democrats prevents many people from seeing through the lies.

The Lonely Conservative observes: “I don’t know how any Republican wins in this culture the left has created.”

Ace of Spades has some interesting thoughts about the 2012 wipeout.

    re: Ace of Spades….when I say it, I get endless grief. To quote Reagan…you can get a lot done if you don’t care who gets the credit.

    But he’s wrong about the bombing. While it is true that AMericans don’t generally care that we’re casually killing civilians in third world nations, they tend to get all fired up when those same nations occasionally land a return blow.

    Barack Obama remains president of the United States 🙂 I think it would be worth amending the Constitution and giving him eight more years just to watch the racist corporate owned right-wing pseudo-conservative weasels have their make-believe world shattered over and over, until you are forced to face the truth. The reality that your view of the world, your lives, even your very existence is a lie. The sheer mendacity that you so proudly display, only arouses contempt and revulsion in the minds and hearts of real Americans.

    The writer of the e-mail was correct about one thing, the American people don’t want to be slaves, and that is the world you offer everyone who works for a living, slavery and servitude in a corporate plutocracy, the new American plutocratic empire in place of the United States. No thanks, for as long as democracy reigns, and the Republic remains a nation, of the people, by the people, and for the people, we will continue to assert our sovereignty in this land.

    Perhaps you should try Russia, I hear it’s easy to buy the government there.

    Gee, I thought the whole idea of the American dream was immigrants coming to our country, having children and living a free & prosperous life. Since all the last money was spent in Obama’s first term and Obama has renewed his pledges to lower the deficits and cut taxes on the middle class, it will be interesting to watch him cut spending (which he was lying about wanting to do) and NOT raising & even cutting taxes on the middle class (which he was lying about NOT wanting to do) – I think John Boehner should wait … and wait,… and wait for Obama to come prepared to fulfill his latest + renewed campaign promises to the American people 🙂

    Are you seriously asserting that having a job is slavery, but paying taxes to fund people who refuse to work for a living is freedom? What on earth is wrong with you?

  9. JeffWeimer
    November 7th, 2012 @ 11:05 pm

    Unfortunately, that which you decry (corporate plutocracy) will only increase under Obama – only the very rich or very connected will thrive. And we will all be slaves – you happily and denying it all the way.

    And my views, my life, my existence are real. Else I wouldn’t be typing to you today. And I’m a real American, too. Get over it. We disagree, we won’t be quiet. We are right, even if we didn’t win this time.

    What is the difference between the incarceration of Pussy Riot and Nakoula Basseley? One was in Russia, the other here – they both embarrassed their regimes.

    I had a carload of Luis at one of my rallies, leaning out the windows of their truck and shout that they were taking over! taking over!

    “You’re taking over?” I asked.
    “That’s right, man we’re taking over!”
    “When you take over, who’s going to hire you?” I asked.
    Morons actually stopped and tried to think it over.

    In the middle of the Teapot Dome scandal which wracked Warren Harding’s Administration, a reporter asked the President if he felt under siege by his enemies. Harding replied, “My enemies, I can handle – but my damned friends …”

    The Cortezes and the Aaron Browns are buffoonish and don’t bother me at all. But now Herman Cain is calling for a new 3rd party. My answer, posted first at Ace a bit ago:

    I like Herman Cain. He’s a great conservative and explains the philosophy well and clearly. He was an awful candidate, his policy of 9-9-9 was simplistic and didn’t actually add up, and he had no convincing answers to the scandal allegations despite a 9-day heads-up they were coming.

    But with this third party talk, I am SICK of it. I hear it every two years at least. TALK IS CHEAP. You f-ing whiners who keep talking this crap need to just get out and DO IT and leave the rest of us the Fluke alone.

    This is still America. It costs you NOTHING to form a third party. The Libertarians did it in a guy’s living room. Howard Phillips just announced the Taxpayers Party (now Constitution Party). Pretty simple.

    So quit your incessant kvetching and whining and go out and start your own party. Invite all your lunatic fringe friends. Serve cookies and Kool-Aid. We wish you well, sincerely (almost, mainly we wish you GONE).

    Don’t complain about how few join you, and don’t EVER come back. Hasta la vista, baby!

    Democrats were the party of slavery and Jim Crow. They opposed anti-lynching laws, de-segregation, and civil rights for Blacks until the mid 1960’s. It’s utterly amazing that in the last 50 years the Democrats have been able to twist the tale around so that it’s the Republicans who were and are the racists. I guess that’s what happens when a populace is ignorant of history.

    And how’s that been working out for you all the last four years? Democrats don’t have a clue about how to run the economy. They think it’s some magic box that just spits out cash whenever they squeeze it.

    Ever hear the story of the golden goose? Well the goose just died yesterday. It was already sick but kept going in hope that a vet would come along on Nov 6. but that didn’t happened and now the “slaves” own the plantation.

    Know how that worked out in real life? when the slaves realized they had no clue of how to work a farm or to run things, they went back to the plantation and were rehired by the very “slave owners” they had left only now the wages they earned didn’t give them a life even half as good as the one they had as a slave.

    I’m not saying slavery is good but someone’s got to steer the boat and too many hands on the tiller will lead to disaster just like when an ignorant deck hand mutinies and tosses the Captain overboard.

    You all don’t know how to run a country. You all either come from 3rd world hell holes or have lead a pampered life living in your momma’s crib.

    Good luck on managing a 30 trillion dollar economy. Especially when the EU takes a dive and the Muslims come knocking.

    Don’t call us for any help. We’ll be busy watching the show.

    II gather that Dai Alaneye hasn’t read any actual intelligence reports on the incident. ‘m just going by what the CIA said. Maybe that doesn’t match your world view, but it makes a lot more sense than “they hate us because we’re free.”

    As long as I’m in the educational mode, you might not like what you find if you explore the documented relationship between occupation and terrorism, either. But that won’t make it false.

    Couple of things wrong with Luis’s premise here.

    First, he buys into the whole, white man is keeping us down, he needs to “let” us take charge. If you want to take charge, Luis, you need to compete, in education levels, business ownership and run for some offices. That’s how you do it. Nobody gets power handed to them and nobody is preventing you and yours from having any. The limitations you perceive are self-imposed.

    Second, you say Hispanics are coming over and mixing with white women? This is very ironic, considering Luis family history is likely that of a Mayan who mixed with a European Spanish conquistador back in the day. Who were the slaves then, Luis? Oh that’s right. Your relatives. Should we hold that against you even if you weren’t born yet, as you are doing to us? Historically illiterate hypocrite.

    Man is that guy insecure, or what? Anyone want to lay odds on the fact that he has yet to “f*ck your women?” (Other than the ones who operate that particular concession as a business, that is.)

    As far as I’m concerned, most of the thoughts on yesterday are nibbling around the edges.

    The Long March Through The Institutions has won the day for the left. Only a similar long march has much chance of peacefully winning it back for the right. The good news is that’s started. The bad news is, there might not be much of a country left to fix.

    That’s why he said what he did yesterday – to put the onus of responsibility on Obama – the ball is in O’s court. Let’s see what O does with it.

    Obama, if he has his way will do away with the Constitution, and no amendment will be necessary.
    Russia is drifting back under Putin, who expects Obama now to be flexible.
    We have many who openly espouse and state they voted for ‘collectivism’ with their vote for Obama–you know so they can help their fellow man.
    Maybe we’ll get to try Russia for ourselves.

    Yes, Luis, the biggest demonstration to your ignorance is your distortion of history.

    But being that your are clearly a leftist, no surprise there that you are so incapable of either truth or reality.

    The “pathetic white party” that you are ranting about were all Democrats, you moron.

    The party that supported Black Slavery and Segregation in the South was…….Democrats.

    Lincoln was a Republican.

    Alabama governor who advocated segregation….George Wallace..a Democrat.

    There is enough historical and empirical evidence in the US governments that shows through bills that it was the Republicans during the 50’s that were trying to end Segregation. And the Southern Democrats with other Northern Democrats that torpedo the bills.

    It was JFK who, like a typical Democrat saw the potential of Blacks as a voter base, as a means to an end. Not as equals and thus he pandered to the black to bring them back to the Democrat plantation.

    The only racist is You.

    You ignorant peasant.

    Jim,

    You are correct.

    Can someone explain why the Republicans are always silent on the historical facts?

    I did wonder if the new film, about Lincoln, might mention the fact that he was a Republican. But, personally, I won’t go to see it.
