D.C. Circuit Court Reviewing Judge Edith Jones' Alleged Misconduct

WASHINGTON — A council of federal judges in Washington will look into a misconduct complaint against a conservative judge who is alleged to have made racially discriminatory comments.

Judge Edith Jones of the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals allegedly said at speech in February that certain "racial groups like African-Americans and Hispanics are predisposed to crime," and are "prone to commit acts of violence" and be involved in more violent and "heinous" crimes than people of other ethnicities.

On Wednesday, U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts assigned the complaint to the District of Columbia Circuit after the 5th Circuit asked that it be transferred. The coalition of civil rights organizations that filed the complaint had requested that it be transferred out of the 5th Circuit.

Dang, I love it when they just come right out there and lay it down!! :thumbsup:

Really? Continuing to dwell on these minor stories when Obama & DC are dealing with:
1) IRS-Gate
2) Benghazi-Gate
3) Hillary/State Department Pedophiles and Sex Crimes
4) NSA-Gate, the biggest threat to American privacy ever.

And you want to talk about an alleged racist appeals judge. Check back in when you have an actual conviction.

You guys want to start threads like "Out of the Mouths of Liberals"....

Guess what... I can play that game... You want to talk about all of your "-gate" garbage (that seems to be turning into nothing)... You know how to start a thread.

Deflect much?

I told you to check back in when the charges are actually dismissed but you never seem to do, do you? HuffPo doesn't like to admit they made another mountain out of a mole-hill.

I don't give a s**t what you "told me"... I don't need your permission to post...

You don't like what I write?... I TOLD YOU TO GO START YOUR OWN THREAD...

Ann Coulter: GOP 'Deserves To Die' If It Backs Immigration Reform (VIDEO)

The GOP deserves to die if it backs immigration reform, allowing more Latinos to become citizens, right wing pundit Ann Coulter says in a new column.

The article is the latest in a series since President Barack Obama's November reelection in which Coulter paints Hispanics as lazy, poor and government-dependent, concluding that they could never vote for conservatives and immigration reform would destroy both the Republican Party and the country as a whole.

“Democrats terrify Hispanics into thinking they’ll be lynched if they vote for Republicans, and then turn around and taunt Republicans for not winning a majority of the Hispanic vote,” Coulter wrote in the column, published Wednesday.

Maine Republican explains why women don't understand health care debate

Dear Republicans: Anytime you want to start that whole "rebranding" thing, you go right ahead. In the meantime, here's another one for the "I wonder why the Republican Party is having trouble appealing to women" files, this time in the form of Maine House Minority Leader Ken Fredette, here explaining why his female House compatriots are having trouble understanding the nuances of the health care debate:

"

As I listen to the debate today and earlier debate on this bill, I can't help but think of a title of a book, Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus. And it's a book about the fact that men sort of think one way in their own brain, in their own world. And women think another way in their brain and in their own world. And it really talks about the way that men and women can do a better job at communicating.

"Because if you listen to the debate today, in my mind -- a man's mind -- I hear really two fundamental issues. From the other side of the aisle, I hear the conversation being about 'free. This is free, we need to take it, and it's free. And we need to do it now.' And that's the fundamental message that my brain receives. Now, my brain, being a man's brain, sort of thinks differently, because I say, 'Well, it's not -- if it's free, is it really free? Because I say, in my brain, there's a cost to this.'"

Get it? The problem is that the female lawmakers are obsessed with stuff being free, whereas the Man-Brain is better with money and true costs and whatnot. As one of those female lawmakers told ThinkProgress, "I thought it was 2013, not 1813. Apparently, I was wrong."

Weeeelllllll, there you have it... If it isn't Trent Franks enlightening us with more of that "legitimate rape" expertise, we have another guy who wants to enlighten us about the difference between "man brains" and "female brains"....

And they wonder why they have lost--and continue to lose--the women's vote? :rofllol :rofllol DO continue with the "rebranding" effort....

PLEASE!!! Just keep doin' what yer doin'....

God, you can't make this stuff up...

And as if Cuccinelli, and this clown aren't bad enough, the hand-picked candidate for the GOTP ticket for Attorney-General wants his law passed that says "all women who have a "miscarriage" must report it to the local sheriff within 24-hours"--in case charges need to be filed... :VeryScared:

You guys weren't really thinking you were going to win Virginia this time around, were you? :rofllol

Republicans, Democrats React to New GOP Director of African American Engagement

Reverend Doctor Joe Ellison, Jr. was appointed on Wednesday.

Local committee members are speaking out about the new position.

Virginia GOP's new black outreach chief thinks Haitian earthquake was caused by voodoo

Earlier today, the Virginia Republican Party named Joe Ellison as its new Director of African-American Engagement. The ink had barely dried on the press release when TPM's Perry Stein recalled that back in 2010, Ellison made a comment that makes E. W. Jackson look almost sane by comparison.

You may remember that Pat Robertson claimed the 2010 Haiti earthquake happened because Haiti made a "pact with the devil" in embracing voodoo. To give you an idea just how harshly condemned he was for this, he got slammed up, down and sideways for them on Free Republic. Free Republic, people.

Well, apparently they weren't too extreme for Ellison. Stein (who incorrectly said the quake happened in 2009) happened to find a WaPo article in which Ellison, speaking at a meeting of the Virginia Christian Alliance, essentially gave Marion Gordon a standing ovation.

"I know his comments angered a lot of the so-called, in my opinion, liberals," said the Rev. Joe Ellison, vice president of the Council on Spiritual Principles, who said he was speaking as an emissary of the black community.

"From a spiritual standpoint, we think the Dr. Robertson was on target about Haiti, in the past, with voodoo. And we believe in the Bible that the practice of voodoo is a sin, and what caused the nation to suffer. Those who read the Bible and study the history know that what Dr. Robertson said was the truth."
