Long-life Texas GOP Latino Leader Leaves Republican Party After Herman Cain Advocates the Death of Immigrants

The Republican Party lost a long life Republican, Lauro Garza, who is a Texas Latino GOP leader due to the continued betrayal of the Republican Party.  The Republican National Committee lacks the spine to moderate the extremism coming from 2012 Presidential elections.  However, note how these same GOP Presidential elections will not touch the “Church of Latter Day Saints / Mormon” issue.  Obviously marching orders were given to not attack members of the LDS Church, HOWEVER, marching orders should have been given a long time ago to do away with referring to Latino / Hispanic immigrants as roaches, rats, cows, shooting them like feral hogs, and now we see Herman Cain advocating the death of Latino immigrants.

FOR THE CRITICS:  Lauro is a long life Republican, staunch advocate of 2nd amendment rights and hunts religiously.  He is one of the most pro life activists ever known to man in Tejano history.  He is a conservative and like him, I believe the Republican Party ought to be disciplined for allowing jokes and extreme anti-Latino rhetoric to take place.  2012 will be a cleansing period for the Republican Party, and we hope that Republican Senate Candidates who live in high Hispanic populated states will take a tone different than the tone Herman Cain has taken.

We all know the outrage we would hear if anyone made any jokes about the Jewish community and the Hitler camps.  Equally heinous would be any jokes and remarks made of slave lynchings and hangings, therefore, the Latino will NOT support support any candidate who has a history of demonizing the immigrants.  So far, Mitt Romney, Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain and Rick Santorum will be remembered as tools who are trying to get popular in demonizing Latinos and immigrants.

From the Texas Director of SOMOS REPUBLICANS who is leaving the Republican party due to lack of Republican leadership in moderating extreme anti-Latino rhetoric:

GOP leadership:  Beyond Reprehensible

 

How much distance has been travelled since President George W. Bush left office?  To us at Somos Republicans, the answer is, “Way too much!”  We fear that for most of the Republican Party, the answer is, “Not far enough!!”

Today, we find the Republican Party has strayed from its roots and its founding principals so far that they can no longer be seen.  We saw this yesterday, in the glare of broad daylight, when a leading presidential candidate, Herman Cain, not once, but twice, advocated for the murder of innocent people and that was met with cheers!Somos Republicans, America’s largest organization of conservative Hispanics, was alone in its criticism of this loud mouth hateful bigot.  He says he was “joking.”  Nobody here is laughing!  The fact the GOP allows and applauds such outrageous thoughts is beyond reprehensible.

To us, the idea of allegedly “Pro-Life” people shouting for the un-Constitutional use of deadly force is unbelievable.  Then, too, we shouldn’t be surprised since Republican leaders have been advocating for the nullification of the American Constitution in states like Arizona, Georgia and now Alabama.  When did Republicans, once synonymous with “conservative,” become so liberal as to attack their very own Bill of Rights in the 4th and 14th Amendments?!

Where is Republican leadership?  Where has the guiding principal of “Morality” gone?!  If the Republican Party cannot or will not rebuke this hateful bigot and others like him who wear the mantle of “Republican” then perhaps the time has come for a rebuke of the Party itself!

Ronald Reagan left the Democrat Party saying they had left him.  Perhaps, I shall do the same because the Republican Party has become radical and unreasonable.  President Reagan must be tumbling in his grave!

    Now that he’s left the Republican Party, perhaps he can start referring to the Democratic Party by it’s proper name, as opposed to the improper “Democrat Party.”

    • DeeDee Garcia

      Lauro is NOT going to the Democratic Party. If you believed that, I’m sorry you did not understand. Have a nice day.

    • GREECE AHOY

      Oh, I thought you ment “The Plantation”

  • Texas

    Good for him! H Cain should ashamed of himself. Less than 50 years ago ppl advocated the lynching of blacks. If was a joke andirons wasn’t funny.

  • Damon

    Everyone catches on at their own pace but where was this outrage when the GOP was cheering executions and letting people without insurance die or booing active service men? Funny how the “niggerhead” ranch didn’t draw this much ire or force any resignations. How about Cain electing to sit the whole civil tights movement out, moving obediently to the back of the bus. And pretty much anything coming from Rep Bachmann should’ve at least raised a Latino eyebrow or two.

    The obvious point here is nothing is an issue as long as it effects the “other” guy. No progress will be made until we get the whole brothers keeper thing down. It’s commendable the Latino wing of the GOP is up in arms about Cain’s ridiculous comments but the next time you hear a disparaging word about Gays, Blacks, Jews, women or alike ask yourself what they’re saying about you when you’re not around.

    Doesn’t matter much. There are 100 more just like him who think they are republicans without the huevos to think for themselves.

  • tiponeill

    The Repubs have written off the Hispanic vote – none of this matters. They are tied to their old white male christian “base”, and so Rick Perry allowing Hispanics to go to college makes him too “liberal” .
     Soon “Somos Repus” will be as small and kooky a group as Buddhist Repubs or Log Cabin Repubs or Planned Parenthood repubs or NPR listening Repubs or Muslim Repubs or…….

    Well, you get the idea – the straight white christian male party.

    Cain is an idiot.

    Intolerance is unacceptable.

    That should read lifelong; not long life…

    This is why Ron Paul should be the front-running man for the GOP. He’s a kind, sensible man who doesn’t say things like this. 

  • Kari Hope

    People better wake up. This isn’t St. Ronnie’s party any more. They are the tea party’s extremists who could care less about immigration reform, income inequality, healthcare, ss, medicare, and tax reform. Better educate yourselves, and pronto!
