I was a paramedic in the Bronx in the late 1980’s. Most people who could get out, got out. Much like Sotomayor. Too bad she couldn’t just say that, “nice place to come after Puerto Rico, but we got out as soon as we could.” Instead she has to act like she still wants to live there. And did she ever go back to tutor, mentor, or do anything for her old neighborhood? Doubt it.
BTW, I can’t stand people (usually liberals) who think that by speaking slowly, they sound more intelligent. I heard about five minutes of her confirmation hearings and wanted to puke. Interesting that if you listen to old audio of her, ranting about the wise latina BS, she speaks in a normal cadence, but for the Senate, it was like playing an old record on the slow speed.
It’s called “condescension”
She knew the fix was in and she needed to play these rich old white men
Maybe a new form of torture would be to let her and Senator Susie Collins work as terrorist interrogators
