On Friday, a BBC blogger published comments from Fernando C. de Baca, chairman of Bernalillo County Republicans in New Mexico, on why Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) will do well in that state:

The truth is that Hispanics came here as conquerors. African-Americans came here as slaves.
Hispanics consider themselves above blacks. They won't vote for a black president.

C. de Baca's comments set off a firestorm of intense criticism, including from other state Republicans. Even the McCain campaign said that the remarks were "extremely offensive and insulting." Watch a local report on KOAT in Albuquerque, which aired yesterday:

C. de Baca has tried to claim that the BBC blogger took his comments "totally out of context." However, in another recent interview obtained by the New Mexico Independent, C. de Baca said African-Americans "took advantage" of government programs during the civil rights movement, while Hispanics were "left sucking air."

It's not just Hispanics. I know a lot of naturalized Indians around here who will stay home on Nov 4, but voted for Gore and Kerry in past cycles. They just can't vote for a black man. The conversation tends to be pretty openly racial when I'm at Indian parties.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

C. de Baca as in Cabeza de Baca = Cabeza de Vaca = Cow head??

Reminds me of that story about the Cabeza de Vaca Spaniard that got shipwrecked from Florida and made it to Aztec lands in Northern México...

But um... pack to topic. Somehow I don't think this cowboy has it quite right.

Wishing you ten-fold that which you wish upon all others.

Things are looking good for Obama in New Mexico right now...

In New Mexico, Public Policy Polling shows Obama with a surprising 11-point lead, 53% to 42%.

That's just pure ignorance.

So I guess I won't support myself because I'm both :wacko: .

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).
