Waaaaaaaaaaay too many 5-4 decisions. Is our Constitution hanging on by a thread?

Yes, our once great country is dying in front of our eyes.

Discrimination, plain and simple.

Proof for all to see.... Sotomayor is a racist and doesn't belong on the SCOTUS.

Four Supreme Court justices believe it should be flat-out legal to discriminate against white people. That’s just great.

White people in this case includes both Anglos and Hispanics who passed the test but were denied promotion because no Blacks had passed. She is indeed the quota queen.

Yet you did.

That reflects badly on all of us here at FR. You may espouse intellectual property anarchy -- but, I'll guess the the PTB here on FR are not highly pleased...

And, no, I don't plan to hit "abuse" or to copy JimRob and the moderators. If you get "bagged" it will be because others feel as I do...

4 out of 6 now shot down—giving her a nearly 70% reversal rate?

Heck of a résumé‎.

Wish Fox would go to covering this instead of the non-stop MJ coverage.

I'd hate to see her rulings that made it through!

Exactly. “Empathy” means favoring the politically connected side over the other.

I just love it!
Waiting for Sonia Sotomayor to put the court in touch with our REAL lives. Uh....while they’re at it can they do something about the other problems that touch ORDINARY AMERICANS (that includes persons of no color)...like taxes, and illegal immigration.....free rides for anyone who manages to wind up here.......
What a joke he is.

"What an embarrassment to Sotomayor, Obama, and all her other cheerleaders."

The massiah is perfect, therefore cannot be embarassed, humiliated, or shamed./s

Meanwhile, the Saudi’s get a pass on financing terrorism:

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has refused to allow victims of the Sept. 11 attacks to pursue lawsuits against Saudi Arabia and four of its princes over charitable donations that were allegedly funneled to al-Qaida.

The court, in an order Monday, is leaving in place the ruling of a federal appeals court that the country and the princes are protected by sovereign immunity, which generally means that foreign countries can’t be sued in American courts.
