The money line:

"Every judge is trying to do the best that he or she can to enforce the law as he or she believes it is written."

This is really the same kind of thinking as: “Black people cannot be racist.”

Would IQ tests for Supreme Court justices be a bad thing?

This is the woman who's bragged about her getting into college and law school by affirmative action being a good thing.

It’s her job to interpret the law with the case before her. NOT enforce the law on how she “feels” it should be. A wise latrina she is!

"I think most judges have a definition of judicial activism," Sotomayor said. "It’s a ruling you don’t like."

Most American Citizens have a definition of jackazz too...

Just wait until the worm turns and these progressive laws start getting reversed.

You'll hear the phrase 'judicial activism' from Sotomayor types every hour on the hour.

This : "Every judge is trying to do the best that he or she can to enforce the law as he or she believes it is written."

Or, that : "The duty of every judge is to see that law is uniformly applied to all citizens without exception, in accordance with the intent defined by its authors and ratified by the representatives of the People at the time."

One is the voice of an activist ... the other is mine. If a law falls out of favor, it is the responsibility of We the People and our representatives to change it. This does not fall within the scope of black-robed re-interpretation. I would expect a "wise latina" to know this.

No activism here, boss.

Some just have the knack of reading invisible writing.

Might review her 2005 remarks at Duke University for possible relevance to these statements.

Unh huh. And it’s purely coincidence that a “wise Latina” and Elena Kagan were appointed to the bench.

Out of ALL the qualified candidates in the country, THEY were the very best two picks base purely on their judicial accomplishments and objective understanding of our constitution.

Yeah. Right.
