David Arquette offers some reflections on Latina women and Sotomayor

What a complete and utter ass.

Transcript after the jump. Via The Daily Beast.

Can I mention something about Sotomayor since we're like, you know, it's politics? I think Latino women are - it depends on the women - but I think they are, they have great judgment but there are some that are just nuts. I would just say it - I mean, you can't - (laughs)

Your wife, Courtney Cox, is not Latina, is she?

No, she's not Latino, but I'm from Los Angeles so we know all about the Latino women. I don't know what I'm talking about but -

But she's qualified?

Oh yeah, she's qualified. But who knows if she's nuts or not! No, I'm just kidding.

Wow, that's so clearly ridiculous it doesn't even merit a comment, IMO. But I will say this:

Why would anyone think the public cares about David Arquette's opinion on Sotomayor's qualifications?!?

Quite obvious that some people should stick to scripted words and not try to speak for themselves.

Homeboy should have stuck to playing the idiot in "Scream." Or the idiot in "Scream 2." Or the idiot in "Scream 3." Or, in a true departure, the idiot in "Airheads."

I think he just has no idea how to react when there is a camera on him, you know because it dosen't happen any more.

Incredible.

OMG. Was he always that stupid? Content of his comments aside, I never knew he was so ... witless.


And, of course, his career has sank, but who cares? If I had that much money I'd be doing little of nothing too.

We Latina women aren't Crazy, We're just not all idiots like you, David Arquette AKA No one.

[0+] Author Profile Page LalaReina replied to Robyn :

As a Latina I'm wondering just how much a profanity laced tirade I can unleash in his direction I mean wtf

Wow, I didn't know that anyone could fit that much racism, sexism and cluelessness into 43 seconds. Now that's talent.

May we all be spared that particular kind of gift.

Wow... someone needs a teleprompter. lol

I bet when he gets home he's going to get a nice heard smack on the back of his head from Courtney.

So I guess I'm crazy...I'm crazy enough to put my foot...eh let me not go there.


He's from LA so he knows all about THE LATINAS...sounds like he wanted to make a horror/comedy movie over that title. Let's hope he'll make at least 20 bucks out of it.

[0+] Author Profile Page LalaReina replied to Bianca :

I'm going to try to follow your lead and not let it take me there either...but that ha-ha casual way he said it really got to me...

[0+] Author Profile Page Cheena said:

By his nervous laughter you can tell he also knows he's talking out of his ass...

Isn't that true of everyone regardless of ethnicity?

[0+] Author Profile Page Martina said:

Oh for god's sake, get a job. Read a book.

[0+] Author Profile Page Martina said:

Is he drunk?

[0+] Author Profile Page Cheena replied to Martina :

I was wondering the same thing... :?

Yes, he should stick to the "idiot" roles...

But... there are no crazy white guys! NONE!
