Too Stupid to know you are Stupid

Think Progress has an audio capture of this if you want to hear it, but I just cannot believe the things that come out of right winger mouths. Even if Liddy was thinking this, you would think he would keep his stupidity to himself. Guess it is good that we know what moron's represent republicans and conservatives:

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.

Well, if all they've got is name-calling, does that mean they're unable to find any real dirt on the woman? No tax-dodged limousine rides, no under-the-table nannies, no cell pictures of her with a bong? That's good, right?

Mathias, it's G. Gordon Liddy. Really - did you expect anything else? THIS is why I don't listen to commercial radio anymore. LOL

@RG guess you are right, I shouldn't be surprised... just because I try to think about what I am going to say before I say it, doesn't mean everyone else does.
