Are We About to Put a Racist on the Supreme Court?

Are we about to put a racist on the Supreme Court? It is virtually certain that President Obama's nominee for Justice Souter's seat, Judge Sonia Sotomayor, will be confirmed. But there are innumerable reasons why she shouldn't be. One is that she is clearly a racist.

It's not just her ridiculous statement that she could make "better decisions" because she's Hispanic. Her ruling against the New Haven firefighters is clearly based on race. While it is a good thing that the court she is poised to join overturned that unjust ruling, the fact remains that she based her ruling entirely on race and the effect that her ruling would have on racial groups. She clearly can't see beyond skin color.

Sotomayor is a member of La Raza, a group whose slogan is "For the race everything, for those not of the race nothing." She has by her continued membership supported this racist policy.

Sotomayor has made it clear that she has no regard for the U.S. Constitution. She stated that the Circuit Court, on which she presently serves, "is where policy is made." No, that would be Congress.

And Sotomayor is hailed as the person who "saved baseball" in her ruling against the use of replacement players. This was just another case where Judge Sotomayor exceeded her authority.

Oddly, she is supported by the same people who circulated a memo about Miguel Estrada saying "this nominee is especially dangerous because he is Latino." What a bunch of hypocrites! Now they are suddenly pretending to like Hispanic people.

Putting this woman on the Supreme Court is a danger to our Republic. Those Senators who vote for her confirmation should be ashamed of themselves.

Just like Obama, she has the hate whitey philosophy. I could only imagine the words she has used to describe the founding fathers behind closed doors.

Yes. We've already got several in Congress and one squatting in the Whitey House.

Re: And a sexist.

Sotomayor's 'wise Latina' comment a staple of her speeches

"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would, more often than not, reach a better conclusion [than a white male who hasn’t lived that life]."--Sonia Sotomayor

Impossible, since "people of color" cannot be racist.
