WASHINGTON (AP) - Spinning a Supreme Court decision in its favor, the White House said Monday that the justices' reversal of a ruling that high court nominee Sonia Sotomayor endorsed as an appeals court judge proves that she follows judicial precedent.

Are they really trying to spin this as good news?

She got overturned by the supreme court so that makes her fit to join them?

How longbefore even the MEDIA will be embarassed by what they say?

My guess is about 300 years.

In other news, up is down, good is evil, and hot is cold.

This administration is incapable of telling the truth.

A surprisingly effective tool of rhetoric is to simply declare that a fact in flagrant contradiction with your opinion proves validity thereof - and let your opponent tie himself in knots trying to unwind that absurdity while you move on to other things.

He said he was not concerned that the reversal would cause her trouble in Senate confirmation hearings, and he doesn't see anything in the decision that would prevent her from assuming her Supreme Court seat.

Unfortunately, he is most probably correct about this decision not affecting Soutermayor's confirmation.

Well then.

By the same logic, President McCain should immediately go to the White House and assume his duly elected role as the POTUS.

And sometimes the overuse of such tools puts a spotlight on just how large a liar the maker of such statements is.

I feel confused and woozy like someone is running an engine in my root and I've breathed too much carbon monoxide.

I did get a laugh from the ads which showed up when I loaded the page.
