Republican Race-Baiting

Eric over at Is That Legal? tells us about Republican Congressman Burr criticizing Edwards for daring to suggest that Howard Coble's approval of Japanese-American internment and his statement that it was for the safety of that 'endangered species' were maybe a wee bit wrong.

Burr goes onto say:

"If John Edwards spent less time pontificating about who should serve as chairman of a House subcommittee and more time focusing on the qualifications of a judicial nominee, perhaps Hispanics in this country could have something to cheer about with Miguel Estrada," Burr said.
