According to WorldNetDaily, Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor is a member of the controversial Hispanic organization known as “La Raza” which promotes amnesty and open border policies.

I can’t imagine this could be much of a shock to anyone that she would be a member of that group.

As I said yesterday, republicans should vigorously make their case against her to the American people based on her long record of judicial activism.

The area we should steer clear of is in talking about stuff like this. The democrats are going to hammer the fact that she’s a Latina, blah, blah, blah.

For us to take the bait and start talking about her membership in La Raza is inevitably going to escalate until something is said that offends Hispanics and the democrats are going to jump on it.

Obama chose this woman because of her race and her gender. Republicans need to talk about her record and leave the phony identity politics to the democrats.

Let’s stay focused on her judicial activism and save the immigration debates for another time.
