John Leguizamo's joke in question
by Liza Sabater
New York Post Online Edition: news
Latin comedian John Leguizamo said he refuses to believe there are any Hispanic Republicans, claiming that's "an oxymoron," because "Latins for Republicans - it's like roaches for Raid."
I still think this is an incredibly witty remark. I wish I had written that. I'm so jealous because I do feel the same way. Add to that one racist Latinos --and there are a lot more of those than most people want to believe.

Well, it's sad but not really surprising that there are white/light-skinned Latinos who are racist against black and/or darker-skinned Latinos. (Hello, just think of the many anti-Castro, pro-conservative Cuban-American Republicans in Florida.)
