Methinks thou doth protest too much

After having closely followed the codespeak behind the GOP side of the Rice and Gonzales debates I can tell you this:

Condi Rice
a. Came from a disadvantaged background (codespeak for African-American)
b. Plays the piano (understands white culture even though African-American)
c. Figure skates (ditto above)

Alberto Gonzales
a. Came from a disadvantaged background (codespeak for HISPANIC)
b. Went to HARVARD (even though he's HISPANIC)
c. is HISPANIC

Orrin Hatch was so filled with Hispanic love you thought he might ejaculate jalepeno juice.

And then he threatened those who opposed Gonzales with "I believe every Hispanic in America who is interested in this country and who understands what is going on here is watching this with a great deal of interest," thus outlining the campaign strategy for 2006. Pete Domenici said as much: "What I am concerned about is whether the Democratic Party thinks it is going to help them because I do think it is another opportunity for Hispanics to say, Why should we be Democrats?" The same Democrats who tried, over and over, and so futilely, to make this about the torture, dummies. But, no. Gonzales's race is the trump card over cruelty.

Yep, like Clarence Thomas, that shining beacon of hope for the black community, Alberto Gonzales, who is, indeed, the first Hispanic Attorney General and, in fact, Attorney General to all of us, will glow like a 7-11 burrito being nuked in a cheese-stained microwave, casting a beam on smiling would-be torturing Hispanics everywhere, wondrous Hispanics who toil in the fields of America, trying so hard to justify the ways of the white people who order them to do their bidding.

I can't print what he says about John McCain, but every word is just. And don't miss his last line tribute to Holy Joe.
