Mayonnaise?



Puerto Rica-minica-Tex-Mex buffet does sound delicious. Sign me up!

BTdubs, why are there no Latinas represented in that video segment? Are there no women on the streets of New York who would like to share their bigoted views about Central Americans, South Americans, and West Indians on basic cable?

"No. You're black. That's it."






"To have somebody that didn't know anything about my culture telling what Latino was . . . How do we speak again? . . . How should I dress?"



"You're not one or the other. You're both, and you should be proud of both, and not be embarrassed or ashamed of it. There is nothing to be ashamed of."



I know where the Dominican Republic is! How do people not know that? It's on the other side of Haiti. Next you'll be telling me there are U.S. citizens who have never heard of St. Thomas. A likely story.

"Exactly! A reverse racist!"



"We call it that because it's the opposite of the way you're supposed to be a racist."

Also, no matter what The Today Show (at 4:12) or the Telegraph suggest, Judge Sotomayor's parents did not "immigrate" to New York from Puerto Rico. They moved to New York from Puerto Rico. Like when the Clampetts "loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly. Hills, that is." Or when George and Weezy were "moving on up/To the east side/To a deluxe apartment in the sky." They didn't change countries; they were Americans finding a new, potentially better, place to live.
