Video: Maddow Asks, Is NCLR the Largest Latino Advocacy Organization in the US…or the Klan?

Last night we reported on former Republican presidential candidate Tom Tancredo's  attack on Judge Sotomayor, in which he called NCLR "the Latino KKK Without the Hoods..."

That last line is classic.

What I just don't understand is, with all their Hispanic outreach talk, shouldn't the RNC be all over themselves condemning Tancredo's slander of the largest mainstream Latino advocacy organization in the US, which has consistently honored Republican candidates with awards for serving the community?

How can the RNC possibly justify not doing that?

this is great article.

This is an interesting video. I agree, how can the RNC possibly justify not doing that? It is beyond me.
