Of course you know this was going to happen and of course they are as always wrong! The Right wing immediately went on the attack, not of Donald Sterling, but on Democrats by saying he was a Democrat. Now to me racism is racism I don't care who says it and what their political views are it's disgusting. Anyone who says otherwise is just as disgusting. But even worse given the hundreds of despicable comments Republicans have made about race especially after President Obama was elected President they should NEVER talk about it.
That being said since 1998 Sterling is a registered Republican.
Politics aside of that what can be done to Sterling. He has freedom of speech even to hate or not.
In California wiretapping is illegal so if this goes goes to court, he will win.
THE NBA really doesn't have much, yeah they suspend him and fine him but in the end they really can't force him to sell the team.
And if you think he is the only owner with those feeling you are wrong.
As for fans, yeah you might want to boycott but that doesn't hurt Sterling, it hurts the team, It hurts Paul, it hurts Griffin it hurts Doc Rivers it hurts the people who are working their asses off and having the teams most successful season. Sterling will still laugh all the way to the bank

A Good Idea
http://crooksandliars.com/2014/04/california-considers-taxation-excessive
I like the idea of taxing CEO of corporations based on what their salary is. It's a good idea. It will never happen because of rulings like Citizens United where they will just spend unlimited amounts to get a bill blocked or if it does go through the companies will move out of state.

Doubling Down
So Nevada Rancher says he doesn't have freedom of speech and it's Dr. Martin Luther Kings fault
http://thinkprogress.org/media/2014/04/25/3430830/cliven-bundy-mlk/
Sorry you do. Otherwise respectable outlets like CNN and Disrespectable outlets like Fox News wouldn't give you platforms for you to say what you want. What you and a lot of the right don't get is YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WORDS AND YOU WILL BE CALLED OUT ON THEM. If you don't like FULL FREEDOM OF SPEECH you should move out of the United States!

The Company You Keep
You are a product of the company you keep. The Nevada Rancher who has become a hero for the right because he hates the Federal Government and refuses to pay fees that he owes stepped into it by making racist comments
http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2014/04/24/3430265/bundy-racist-comments/
So add him to the guy from Duck Dynasty, Ted Nuggent all of them. If that who the right considers the best and brightest well it says something.

No Pat. Absolutely Not
So Pat Robertson wants an end to the separation of church and state "nonsense"

Allow me to speak for every sane person in America in a HELL NO
There is a reason our founding fathers put that in.

What Free Market
One of the constant cries from Republicants is the markets should decide for themselves on products.
Ladies and gentlemen I present the latest hypocrisy from the GOP:
http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2014/04/16/3427392/oklahoma-fee-solar-wind/
Oklahoma, in an attempt to get people to NOT decide what they want to do to lower electric bills, just passed and signed a law charging a tax to those who use solar energy for their homes and businesses.
So much for the free market.

A Good Choice
Kudos to the Supreme Court for letting the states decide if they want affirmative action. I thought they should overturn it completely cause colleges and employers need to hire or bring in the best people regardless of race.

The obvious hypocrites
I keep hearing from Republicants and their pundits how people keep mooching off the Government. I'd like to bring to your attention the Nevada Rancher who is in a standoff with the government. For the record let me state the facts of this case:
His heard is grazing on FEDERAL LAND
He REFUSES TO PAY THE FINE
Armed Militia are illegally helping him by sending people who illegally bring guns across state lines.
So in reality HE IS MOOCHING OFF THE GOVERNMENT
Oh wait he is white so that's why the right loves him

Just Go
So Mike Huckabee thinks North Korea has more freedom then the United States. I suggest if he really feels that way go there. Him and everyone. You don't like it here leave. You are not wanted or needed.
And by the way anyone who uses the Nazi argument like he did automatically loses the argument.

Really
So I read a letter in the L.A. Times where the writer said how the person who killed people in Ft. Hood last week "deserved better".
He made a choice. The military is voluntary. He made a choice to shoot people. He made a choice to kill people. He had easy access to guns and thought that was the right thing to do.
The only better he deserved was to be hung.

One More Thing
I find it odd how Congress is willing to send billions of dollars to foreign countries like Ukraine BUT they refuse to spend funds here. They really hate America.

Phony Argument
One of the phony arguments Republicants make is about state rights. Like they really care about that. Like Robert made when I made how Republicants are against things well LIKE PEOPLE VOTING! My question to Robert what about an individuals right?? DO they not matter?? The right to vote is in something Republicants heard of the constitution. But the only thing that matters to them in the constitution is the 2nd amendment. They don't give a shit fuck or damn about anything else.

More gutting
So the Supreme Court rules YET AGAIN against democracy and in favor of money laundering and outright bribery as they rule no limits on political contributions.
This court is disgusting
