Jeffrey Toobin: Sessions Says Only White Men Are Without Prejudice
You knew Jeff Sessions wouldn't be able to hold back his true feelings about race. Jeffrey Toobin calls him out for his gender/ethnicity prejudices. Really, only white, superior men are unbiased and understand the ills caused by racism and sexism because they are a blank slate. Sure thing there Jeff.
Jeff Toobin captured the entire philosophy of the Republican Party, embodied by Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, only white men are oppressed. Only white men are unbiased and without prejudice.
JEFF TOOBIN: What’s worth noting about what Jeff Sessions -- the line of questioning, was that being a white man, that’s normal. Everybody else has biases and prejudices[,] . . . but the white man, they don’t have any ethnicity, they don’t have any gender, they’re just like the normal folks, and I thought that was a little jarring.
Good on Toobin
Yes, because our history shows that white men have been oh so kind to minorities and the ladies. That's what's inside of a mind like Sessions.
And let's remember what Sessions said about Roberts.
During the John Roberts confirmation hearings, when Roberts argued against applying discrimination laws in memorandum, Senator Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III was adamant in defense of judges who "respected precedent"...read on
you're kiddin' me!!! Stop, the laughter is killin' me... really, knock it off with this crazy stuff... white men have no prejudices.... hahahahahahahhahaha!!!
How the hell did this clown get elected?
Oh..........nevermind.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
You know the land of peace, friendship, tolerance, and unicorns...
I wonder if some kind grassroots organization would consider a push-poll re:secession.
A throwback to simpler times when white men dragged their wives behind them by their hair.
That cracked me up. I guess then the Civil War, Jim Crow, and Native American genocide never happened... it was those blasted bloggers.
...he uses big words like 'particularly' and 'delicatessen.' -- Jack
Sessions: "Muh Deah Miss Sotomay... errr... Ah got all dee cotton pickahs chosen for muh plan-tashun disun yeeah".
Read muh lips, Miss Sotomay... errr, no more brown hangin' round.
Hit the road, y'all and leave us whistlin' Dixie.
Signed, Jeff Davis Beauregard Lee Sessions (Racist R. Alabamy)
That's probably how most of the world views this lost tribe still fighting the civil war, traumatized by integration and progress.
Now if you could just do something about this recurring nightmare!"

... if God had intended minorities to be "pure" he would have made them white as the driven snow, just like him. Not brown and black, like all those "bad" people...
Praise White Jesus!

Nah - at this point, I think she's only breathing hard...
I really gotta wonder about Sessions' definition of "normal folks". Guys like him honestly believe that they representive the mainstream, conventional wisdom and common sense. Pretty scary, eh?
How dare that fucking Yankee Toobin question a southern white man!
Go pay your Klan dues.
I also notice that in the fucked up mind of institutionalized racists like Sessions, only minorities play the race card.
you would understand the burden the white man has been carrying on
his shoulders since God placed the world there.

But have you ever been gay? Seems gayness can come and go according to Larry. Kind of like the different desires for foods. One day you crave pizza and the next it's all about salad. Ya just never know what's next....according to Larry and not that there's anything wrong with that.

see race everywhere. Well duh! We can't get away from who we are and what racists think of us. And we're not hysterical either. What is hysterical is when Sessions calls Sotomayor prejudiced. It's so rich it's nauseating.
I've never seen change without a fire
Why the Federal Judiciary wouldn't have his cracker ass on any Federal Bench.
That is why he's major pissed - that a Latina, or a woman, period, might get a seat on the SCOTUS before HE DOES.
Jeff, just put on the hood and robe, get a cross and set it on fire on the Senate floor, invite David Duke and CALL IT A DAY, already.
I needed the laugh.
The only thing funnier than that is Clayton Bigsby

I have that Chappelle skit on my i-pod. Every once in awhile I watch it on the train coming home after a shitty work day. Hilarous.

White men certainly get court cases dismissed without prejudice
Meaning they can raise them again.

I think Eugene Robinson beat Toobin to it with his op-ed today in the washington post.
When exactly with the old white guy pity party be held and where? I know for so long they have suffered such injustice that it's almost unspeakable. Wait, it is unspeakable because it isn't true.

Of course not; you have histories and relationships and memories and all that untidy nonsense that contributes to the generation of opinions. How awful for Sessions that he is incapable of having opinions! If he did, though, he'd have bias, and that's obviously not possible for someone as mainstream and normal as he.
The irony of course is he's questioning the validity of her objectivity due to her cultural perspective by demonstrating his own failed objectivity due his own cultural perspective.
A perfect question from Sessions would be: How can I know you won't be as bigoted and ignorant as I'm being by asking this question?
...that a hopeless racist like Sessions doesn't have within himself to ask.
But he doesn't have a cultural perspective, see, because he has no culture. He's a blank canvas, a "normal person" who has no family history, no ethnic roots, no personal history, and no memory. He was formed whole from the ether, and as such is the only kind of person alive who can see everyone else clearly because he has no unique experiences to color his perspective.
Thank you, Jeff, for bringing us biased bigots enlightenment!
Jeff Sessions, you're no Star Man.
Yglesias writes, "I would pay good money to hear Sonia Sotomayor say, 'Senator Sessions, I think it’s ironic to be facing these questions from a man whose judicial nomination was rejected by this very committee on the grounds that he’s a huge racist.'"
Starve the WAR Beast...
... Feed Americans.
... I really think Nancy Pelosi shouldn't have quashed Rep. Sheila Jackson-Lee's resolution pertaining to Michael Jackson.
Having idjits like Peter King go on the record to espouse their hatred and racism is worth every penny.
and all the other Republican racists questioning Sotomayor doesn't matter one bit. They are irrelevant eunuchs and she's swating them away like tiny, little gnats.
... she's an accomplished jurist, and I'm sure she's had plenty of experience facing down the good ol' white boys club.
I see no need to insult irrelevant eunuchs by comparing them to republicans!

Mormon.
Southern Methodist, according to his bio.
Do Methodists think white folk are native to North America?
None of the arguments that these Republican Senators are going to hold water. Here is a great analysis of the New Haven Firefighters case, as Justice Ginsburg saw it in her dissenting opinion.

b. Being a member of a particular ethnic group, especially belonging to a national group by heritage or culture but residing outside its national boundaries: ethnic Hungarians living in northern Serbia.
Is Toobin a Mormon? Caucasians are not native to North America, you magic hat toting Mor(m)on.
republicanism is a mental illness.
How else can you explain 1 sessions running for and getting elected?
Do you think a sane person would vote for such an idiot?
There is no other explanation, republicanism is a mental illness.
They should all be checked into republican rehab! They need help!
I am reading this from EU, and cannot stop laughing about Jeff Sessions.I got interest in Politic after the invasion of Iraq, and have been concentrating my days seeing C-Span, MSNBC, CNN, while reading C&L, Raw story, Huffington and Steve Clemons site.
One of the biggest liar I felt was our dear "Jeff Beauregard Sessions III" that always seems to 1) Remind every one that he was a procecuter. 2) The more he talked the more he turned red. 3) Always agree with the party right or wrong, that good all boy will care for the peop..., for Yo..., No for the party were the money is!
