Has anyone mentioned the 14th Amendment in regards to this woman’s judicial philosophy?

That appointment of his is so liberal, you can tell she’s a liberal by just looking at her. She seems to have a very angry way about her. I believe she clearly has some axe to grind. Perhaps it’s just me.

This lady is probably somewhere on the far left between Ruth Ginsberg and Karl Marx on the ideology scale. Of course, she’s a trade for Souter, no great loss or shift on the court. We should all pray daily for the health of all non-liberal judges on the courts while this little tyrant is in office.

“Where was NOW when Sarah Palin was being taken apart like a plucked chicken? Where were they when Carrie Prejean was being roasted and lambasted? NOW is comprised of the biggest bunch of liberal hypocrites this side of ACORN.”

Remember according to NOW, only liberal women have rights. I think in the name of intellectual honesty, they should rename their organization to the National Organization for Some Women(NOSW).

Well... I guess if you define a judge who says things like:

“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.”

and

“the court of appeals is where policy is made.”

Then, yeah - sure, she is progressive. To me - this is worse than any Supreme in the last 100 years. If we have had judges “make policy”, yet not openly admit it - then what will a judge do who openly states it as a fact? What about that old ragged piece of paper known as the US Constitution? OH - yea -we walked away from that years ago (except to protect the “rights” for now “protected” groups.)

I find it interesting that a group created by women, for women’s issues that is populated by women and run by women begins crying about sexism.

Don’t they see the irony?

Could someone please explain how “living the life of a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences” makes someone better able to apply the provisions of the U.S. Constitution to reviews of lower-court decisions...

To the gulag with you!

This is our chance to make clear to America what President Obama actually believes.

We cannot allow the politician who sold himself as a professor of constitutional law to escape from the views of his nominee. We need to clearly and unequivocally demonstrate Sotomayor’s views on abortion, infanticide, private gun ownership and other issues, and then we need to link Professor of Constitutional Law Obama to those views.

Our erstwhile president, ever his bumbling self, has already taken pains not only to call attention to his nominee's ethnic background, but to characterize her as someone who represents Hispanic values. In doing so, he set the table for his own political demise. Someone who feels deliberately killing a child is a constitutionally guaranteed right? Barack Obama may believe that to be the case, but that's not what most Hispanic Americans believe. Nor do they believe, as the president does, that it is right to suffocate or starve a child to death.

President Obama’s election meant the murder of 50,000,000 children in America by abortion, plus others abroad through his funding of abortion groups abroad, including China's brutal one-child (forced abortion,) policy. With this political blunder, he may have given us the opportunity to prevent that.

Of course. That's what the New, Living Constitution says.

I am glad I’d already completely finished my Marie Callender’s turkey and mashed potatoes BEFORE I saw your
Olbergandy pic on #10. Woulda been “you owe me a new monitor” time.

I love the new euphamisms of the left, i.e. “progressive”.

Progressive = Marxist

I use the all around term Leftist so I dont have to parse doctrine.

I completely agree. They do not stand for WOMEN, they only stand for LIBERAL women who agree with their agenda.


[Sorry for the blurriness... not sure how that happened...]

I wonder...

Is there ANY way to protest the use of our tax dollars to foreign countries (like to Mexico to fund abortion)? Is there any way to sue the IRS or another part of the Federal Government claiming that the use of funds to promote abortion and such is a violation of our right to worship freely? My money being used to fund abortion makes me a party to what I view is murderous activities, and puts the innocent children’s blood on ALL of our hands without any option to dissent, or not participate... Is there some kind of conscientious objection law anywhere besides in regards to military service???

So many questions... Guess I should go back to school now that my kids are older...
