Dinesh D'Souza: Mexicans love me

I heard him on some RW radio show yesterday, talking about the community service he did as punishment for his crime. He taught classes in something or other, and a lot of his students were Mexican, and he was talking about how much they liked him. It wasn't that they agreed with him politically, they loved him personally. And he thought it is something the Republicans could learn from, and he's going to write a book about it later this year.

3. So, like many conservatives, he can connect to people individually...

...then hits the "off" switch when it come time to apply that more broadly?

In other words, he's an asshole in general.

4. D'Souza has zero credibility, judging from past remarks he's made.

I'll take his claim for what it's worth.

But the Sacramento Kings said:

The Kings have absolutely no affiliation with this promotion. Anyone claiming to have our support is fabricating our involvement for their own benefit.
