NPR picks up Rosie O’Donnell talking points.
Since there are no Muslims on the court dont be surprised if Obama doesn’t pick one.
Nina Totenberg - no surprise.
No, too many people who think they are god on the court.
too many catholic speakers of the house?
Too many Greeks in the restaurant business.
Too many Jews in the entertainment business.
Too many blacks in the NBA.
Etc.
Such envy leads to pogroms and other noxious actions at worst. It says more about the lack of achievement/self worth among those inclined against an ethnic/religious group than anything else.
speaking as a catholic, it appears that catholics are the marxist’s best friends. Next to lucifer, that is.
Currently we have two Jews on the court. Reliable rumor has it that Obummer’s most likely pick to replace Stevens is Elena Kagan (Jewish). Another possibly is also Jewish (Merrick Garland). Either one would make one third of the court Jewish. IOW Jews overrepresented by a factor of about 15 relative to their numbers in the general population.
Even if you have six Catholics on the court, they are not overrepresented by anything close to a factor of 15. But do you hear NPR kvetching that the court has too many Jews? Of course not.
(Note: I am allowed to point this out because I am Jewish.)
My complaint is that there aren’t enough Catholics on the Supreme Court. After all, they’re doing a better job (with the exception of judge Sotomayor) than the other members of the Supreme Court, so let’s have more of them.
Isn’t Sotomayor a Voodoo Priestess?
Finally, Why wasnt this written last year during Sotomoyers confirmantion?
