If you follow politics at all,you have probably heard about Sen. Jeff Session’s racist statements.So,isn’t it hypocritical of him to question Sonia Sotomayor about her remarks?He is the last person that should be jumping down anyone’s throat regarding racism!

While he’s grilling Judge Sonia Sotomayor about her level of fairness,many have questioned whether Sessions can be impartial & fair towards her.Here’s more on that from NPR:

“In July, Sen. Jeff Sessions has a chance to pbum judgment on the nomination to the Supreme Court of Sonia Sotomayor, whom several conservative pundits have criticized as being racist. The lines at issue are from a speech Sotomayor gave back in October 2001, when she said:

I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.

But some wonder whether Sessions can evaluate Sotomayor fairly.

In 1986, then-U.S. Attorney Jeff Sessions was himself in the hot seat after being nominated by President Ronald Reagan for a federal judgeship. His nomination was later rejected by the Senate Judiciary Committee, in part because of testimony by J. Gerald Hebert, a former senior trial attorney in the civil rights division of the Department of Justice.

The ‘Communist’ NAACP

In a recent interview with NPR’s Michel Martin, Hebert, who had several encounters with Sessions prior to his nomination by Reagan, recalls:

“When the NAACP would come up, he [Sessions] would snidely remark that it was a ‘pinko’ organization, or communist inspired,” recalls Hebert. “[Sessions] seemed to have a unprogressive attitude toward race and equal opportunity.”(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest of this insightful article here.

Men like Jeff Sessions drive most minorities as far away from the Republican party as they can get. Because it’s so obvious that he still holds the same views that got him into trouble before.
