Russell Pearce on Blast for Racist E-mails in New Dennis Gilman Video

Gilman skewers Pearce and brings back an old Pearce bud from the dead

From beyond the grave, J.T. Ready haunts recalled, disgraced state Senator Russell Pearce in this new video by Dennis Gilman on the controversy surrounding Pearce's racist e-mails, unearthed and made public by the ACLU.

Some of the most egregious comments in those e-mails come from articles written by notorious Colorado xenophobe Frosty Wooldridge, which Pearce forwarded on to his pals, just as he did a neo-Nazi screed back in 2006.

The mere fact that an unapologetic Pearce would call a bigot like Wooldridge a "great patriot," as he did to ABC 15, pretty much tells you what you need to know. Guess who is also a big fan of Wooldridge's work? Erstwhile Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke.

Pearce was a big supporter of ending Ethnic Studies in Tucson. I suppose he would also like it if history deletes his emails. Pearce is obsessed with his own vision of a white America. Worsley will win the primary with a 15 point lead.

excerpt: "This picture is incomplete. Many Latinos surely avoid any contact with the sheriff and his deputies. But Maricopa is also home to a brave corps of people who have tirelessly and stubbornly resisted the sheriff’s campaign of fear. They are a diverse group — Latinos and Anglos, immigrants and the native-born, street protesters and musicians, filmmakers and bloggers, and a very small number of elected officials. They don’t get much national attention. But as the worst of the outrages of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office are exposed this month in United States District Court in Phoenix, their work and their warnings are finally being recognized."

It will be interesting to see if there are enough sociopaths in Pearce's district to get him through the primary. Since this is Arizona, one never knows.

Dennis, No point in commenting on the actual content which speaks for itself. But this is a a great piece of journalistic art. Nice investigative, camera work and post editing.
