She was first placed on the bench by Bush, I’m sure she’ll be accepted by the moderates of the GOP.

Apparently there could have been a worse choice from among the leftists Obama has available.

I am just saddened by the fact that her gender and race were the reason she made the shortlist to begin with.

When you go in to a process with a laundry list of attributes that must be satisfied to pay back the debt you owe your supporters, then everything else takes a back seat.

I never thought I would live to see a Supreme Court seat be handed out as a sop to a voting block.

I am getting too old for this.

LOL! Put on the bench by the same Bush41 that seated David Souter? Maybe history does repeat itself.

While she was named to the bench by George H.W. Bush, she was actually chosen for her seat by Daniel Moynihan. As the Democratic Senator with a Democratic Senate majority, he had the right to recommend a fair share of George H.W. Bush’s District Court appointees.

Yep, they now have cover to vote “aye” for this leftist judge. GHWB also gave us Souter. What a coincidence!
