G. Gordon Liddy On Sotomayor: ‘Let’s Hope That The Key Conferences Aren’t When She’s Menstruating’

G. Gordon Liddy looking angryYesterday 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.

1. Paging John Cornyn to the apology phone!

[Libertyfirst]

41. it would be nice to get a couple of Latino congresspeople from Texas

and maybe we will if they continue this stupidity.

[leftstreet]

2. I thought he was dead n/t

[havocmom]

7. just his brain

[glitch]

17. DUzy. :) nt

[hobbit709]

3. How stupid can these clowns get?

:wtf: That makes Oxycontin Boy look smart in comparison.

[Captain Hilts]

4. Prolific use of the word 'bitch' for 'complain' reinforces irrational anger as a female thing.

Liddy's batshit crazy.

[jgraz]

5. What. The. Fuck.

Holy shit, why is this asshat not a universal pariah?

[NewJeffCT]

12. He's a Republican

so, any mistakes he makes can be written off tomorrow as a youthful indiscretion...

[LaurenG]

6. Lord knows Liddy is a sexist Neanderthal

He's such a pig. (no offense to pigs)

[Taverner]

37. I was gonna say, I've never seen a Pig make comments like this

Usually just an "oink oink" here and an "oink oink" there

[AlexanderProgressive]

56. kicked to expose sexism n/t

[NewJeffCT]

8. holy shit is that horrible

did he ask the same question of Sandra Day O'Connor or Ruth Bader Ginsberg? How about Sarah Palin?

[iamthebandfanman]

9. w..t...f ? n/t

[scheming daemons]

10. They continue to make the job easy for Democrats

With quotes like this, the Democrats will be a majority for a VERY long time.


Doesn't Liddy realize that 53% of the voters in this country are women?

[EOTE]

11. Keep it coming, assholes!

Every time these assholes open up their mouths, they further discredit an increasingly irrelevant party. Maybe Liddy should get a prime time comedy show with Tancredo?

[MercutioATC]

13. Did somebody say G. Gordon Liddy??

Sorry, but all G. Gordon Liddy threads MUST contain this pic.

Don't shoot the messenger...

[11 Bravo]

18. That's just wrong.

On so many levels.

[leftstreet]

21. you are cruel

:rofl:

[CreekDog]

31. I finally agree with flag burning

:wtf:

[Mari333]

49. LOL

[mtnester]

32. Yuck

Eye bleach,..STAT

[htuttle]

36. Just about to post that myself

It's the law.

[myrna minx]

55. Oh, how I want to unsee that disturbing image.

[guitar man]

14. Oh STFU Liddy

The only people I see on the rag these days are impotent, insignificant dried up old right wing crackers that are beside themselves because Obama and the Dems won the election. Just go away and take the rest of them with you Liddy, the days of the "White Male Christian Power Structure" as O'Really put it are coming to a close. Hopefully your kind will die of soon and we'll be rid of you. :grr:

[hankthecrank]

15. Its funny you can still talk with your shoe in your pie hole

dam that is going to leave a mark!

[Mike Daniels]

16. Jesus. They act like they're in some filter where only they and their supporters hear their crap

I know you want to keep your base energized but there's energizing the base and then there's just plain alienating everyone outside of your base.

The way Rush, Liddy, and the other loudmouths are going on they must think the Republican base is large enough to win the next election without support from independents or cross-voting Democrats.

[blogslut]

19. Hey, Gordon!

oink

[Algorem]

20. hundred year old nuts can get pretty low.

[omega minimo]

22. Women with PMS feel like men feel every day. TAKING NO SHIT. GORDON.

:scared:

[boobooday]

23. I can't believe this criminal still gets a microphone plugged in n/t

[BlooInBloo]

24. /facepalm

[MineralMan]

25. Summbitch should be more worried about her hot flashes

and mood changes, I'd think, given her age. What a moron! Another marginal winger jams his foot down his throat.

More wingers who have no real power, who don't hold any elected office, running their mouths. Marginal.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

26. if he were not such a lunatic, i would be sad. however this diatribe

made me giggle a bit

[madrchsod]

27. stay classy gordo....

there must not be any women listening to your talk show...

[RebelOne]

28. She's 55, so I doubt she is still menstruating. n/t

[peace13]

29. He wouldn't know. n/t

[SoCalDem]

30. I guess Liddy never bothered to google "menopause"..

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

33. I guess Gordon has felt neglected by Keith Olbermann lately

'cause that's a blatant bid for becoming Worst Person in the World if I ever saw one.

Shut up, Liddy, and have another serving of Apple Brown Ratty while you're at it.

[ismnotwasm]

34. Hey Liddy

Keep your nose away from crotches Okay? Bad dog.

[Missy Vixen]

35. Every woman on Liddy's staff should have given her notice

over that comment.

Nice to know how little G. Gordon Liddy thinks about women, isn't it? :mad:

[sutz12]

38. Isn't this the "shoot them in the head" guy?

:shrug:

As stupid as he is ignorant.

[Cleita]

39. At least she has an excuse to be on the rag. What's his?

This is really the most ignorant statement referring to Judge Sotomayor's fitness to serve that I have read yet. Why isn't that ass in prison? He belongs there for his past criminal actions.

[librechik]

40. So, they are courting the hatred of both women and Hispanics...

you go, GOP

keep it up, cuz you are about to fall into the deepest hole American Politics has seen since McCarthy drank himself to death.

[Karenina]

42. HEY GORDON!!! Getcho jenky ass booked on EVERY mawnin' show

and spout that shit to the heavens!!! Das tut Dir GUT!!! :rofl:

[Sparkly]

43. Wow.

:wow: Quite the Neanderthal.

(Apologies to Neanderthals.)

[Bluebear]

44. Ay yi yi.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

45. Liddy's a (self-proclaimed) tough guy so doesn't mind the pain on his knuckles when drug.

[Ignis]

54. I LOL'd. Thanks! (nt)

[timtom]

46. Seeing as how she's about 55

that's probably not in the cards.

HOWEVER...a horribly ugly and shameful thing to say!!!

[Neecy]

47. you know.....

As a woman, yes, this offends me deeply.

But the attacks launched against Sotomayor because her parents are from Puerto Rico are so shocking, so hateful, that I'm just left gasping. I feel bad for hispanics in this country because they must feel like they're literally under assault.

[AspenRose]

48. Just when I think they can't get any lower.

Would they dare say anything like that about any of their republican goddesses? I doubt it.

And since when are people with ancestry from PR "illegal aliens?" Way to muddy the waters, asshole!

[MinM]

50. when they considered murdering Jack Anderson

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x2146163 :yoiks:

[ohheckyeah]

51. Why does this thug

have a radio following and appear on Fox News? Not only is he a thug, he's a racist, sexist pig.

There goes the Hispanic Republican vote.

[Are_grits_groceries]

52. The sound you hear

is the movement of Hispanics and now women away from the Republican party. I'm sure before it is over anybody over 55 will be on the move also. I'm not sure who will be left except stupid, white males.

[alsame]

53. What a good way to insult all female voters. Keep talking, pig. n/t

[spanone]

57. good, we can add liddy to the list of talking heads for the gop.....

[agentS]

58. Stay Classy, Republicans

Next week, they'll be blabbing about breast milk discharges or some crap like that.

Or yeast infections. They haven't touched those yet, AFAIK.

[Pharlo]

59. Well, back in the day,

Rep Gingrich did say that women were not suitable for combat positions because they were prone to 'infections'.

Not that he specified yeast infections, but the issue was raised.
