Assertive, but DON'T CALL HER BOSSY!
‘’Every decision we make is final,’’ declares Sonya Sotomayor of the Supreme Court, ‘’Once we decide, there is no more hope.’’ No more hope? Tell that to Dred Scott. Tell that to today’s African-Americans who are permitted to drink from the same water fountains as white people, thanks to the overturning of Plessy v Ferguson in the 1890s.
In fact, the Supreme Court constantly changes laws. Why else does Sonya Sotomayor think Barack Obama chose her for the Supreme Court except because he expected her to change laws according to their shared liberal ideology?
If Justice Sotomayor were paying attention to her job instead of spending her time giving misleading interviews to foreign publications, she would know that the Supreme Court is currently considering changing a law which she and the Supreme Court have already ruled constitutional — the Affordable Care Act. An affirmative ruling in the Hobby Lobby case would change the ACA by removing requirements deemed contrary to employers’ freedom of religion.
Nothing is forever, except maybe the ignorance of liberal justices, who have no reason to spend much time studying the law because they care more about advancing liberal causes than upholding judicial standards.
She couldn’t even make her marriage work after only seven years. How can we possibly expect her to protect the constitution for life!
I'm not defending Sotomayor or this interview, but that's a cheap shot. Clarence Thomas's first marriage only lasted 10 years.
I am always impressed by how unimpressed I am when these people speak (Obama, Michelle, Sotomayor, Clintons, etc). They attended the top schools and their intellect is astoundingly vapid.
Well, “Justice” Soderme.. got her job like any other politician...for her being a reliable partisan political hack, not for be qualified to be a judge of any court, let alone the Supreme Court.
How is she any different than say, Harry Reid would be, in the same job. Any political operator can wear the clothes and sit in the chair...and these days, too many do. For sure all of Obaba’s appointees do.
I guess I missed the part of the constitution that talked about the right to be successful.
Right
It can be about EEOA or other fascist dicta
True, why don’t you retire?
Putting someone on the Supreme Court that isn’t even close to being qualified to be there was “unexpected” to me. Making “a compelling life story” the only qualification for being a Supreme Court justice was a goofy idea. Just another indicator of how far America has gone downhill.

I’d expect something a bit more... substantive from even a middle-school kid.

What an effin moron
Har!
She’s a freakin megalomaniac
What she means is that some uber enlightened human is supposed to impose cosmic justice when people are unmeritoriously successful.
