Who needs qualifications in the age of Obama?
Am I crazy or was Sotomayor one of the “moderates” the news media was trying to get Bush to appoint?
On April 9, 2009, New York Senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand wrote a joint letter to President Obama urging him to appoint Sotomayor, or alternatively Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, to the Supreme Court if a vacancy should arise on the Court during his term.
On April 30, 2009 David Souter’s retirement plans were leaked to the media, and Sonia Sotomayor received early attention as a possible nominee for the seat to be vacated in June 2009.
On May 13, 2009, the Associated Press reported that President Obama was considering Sotomayor, among others, for possible appointment to the United States Supreme Court.[34] If chosen, Sotomayor would be the Supreme Court’s first ever Hispanic justice (as well as the Court’s first ever lesbian-marxist.)
It’s a better pick than he could have made.
Empatía.
I would prefer that she knew how to say "intención original".
...heh heh heh... I doubt it..
Bill must be out of town.
This woman advocates for judges creating laws out of whole cloth. I suspect anyone he nominates will do the same so maybe you’re right. I am sickened.
A recent IBD ed cartoon showed astronauts fixing the Hubble,
and one asked the other if they had adjusted it for accuracy or for empathy.
Knock off the Lesbian crap.
its worse than that - she’s a marxist and a simpleton.
When the states assert their 10th amendment sovereignty, finally, and nullify the fedgov’s unconstitutional tyranny,
they also need to assert that the USSC is NOT the final arbiter of the Constitution, the state legislatures are.
The agent of other entities (fedgov is agent of the states) does not get to set the terms of the contract that gives it the job in the first place.
"Wenn ist das Nunstruck git und Sotomayor? Ja!... Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!"
She was initially placed on the bench by Bush. Another Bush mistake?
Affirmative Action pick pure and simple. Thanks to our last few administrations coddling illegals and allowing them to breed millions of citizens we will see more and more kowtowing to hispanics and softer and softer treatment for illegals as time passes.
No surprises here. We knew it would be a woman, either Hispanic or Negroe, liberal.
Obama is so predictable.
No you’re right. She was a darling of the gang of 14.
