...accused colleagues of trying to “wish away” racial inequality...

cough *** Bell Curve *** cough...

I think the 'wise Latina' meant to say 'wish away racial prejudices'. But maybe she was misquoted (I didn't read the actual article).

Who nominated, and who voted to confirm, this justice who was obviously not going to live up to her oath to support the Constitution? They share blame with those who now do nothing to condemn her abuse of the very heart of this nation’s laws.

"No equality without quality" surprisingly there's only a tiny number of matches on an Internet search dating back to a 2008 book. I recently heard it on a talk show.

It is the kind of profundity that aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideological issue (like "Justice" Sosomayor) hate.

The victim's industry rants about injustice as though we whites have only to be born and all is ours. We don't lift a finger except to dial "that" number when we want something.

On the other hand the victims and minority rights industries are very lucrative so some get the message. Look where Sosomayor is.

A maggot race baiter on the U.S. Supreme Court. Americans needed that like they needed a damn hole in the head. The lowfos sure screwed this country up when they sent all these incompetent, immature bozos to Washington.

Sotomayor’s just “dancing with the one who brung her.” Is anyone surprised?

Thanks.

BTW a leftist cannot afford to ascribe good faith to those with whom they disagree. To do so would invite serious consideration of the opposition point of view.

And because leftist ideologies are rooted in fantasy raster than reality their arguments will always suffer by comparison.

She’s not an idiot.

From her perspective, her job on the Court is to advance the agenda and cause(s) of various special interests and demographic groups.

She does an excellent job of it. As do her Leftist peers in the judiciary.

I give Roberts full props for his appropriately “tart” response. He did well on calling her out on her inferred claim to have an indisputable monopoly on the truth.

It must be wonderful to live in sotomayor's little bubble where she is right and everyone who disagrees with her is wrong.

Where is the respect for a counseled differing opinion? Shouldn't we expect that from a Supreme Court justice?

Take identical twin greyhounds and start training one from an early age, feeding it well and take good care of it. The other is undisciplined, allowed to sit around all day, and is fed nothing but cr@p. Is it any wonder that one dies better than the other in a race? People who grow up in cr@p cultures produce cr@p results.

She’s a judicial post-turtle. We can count on the Democrats to nominate political hacks who wander in off the street, and the GOP harrumphs loudly, for about two seconds, then goes back to attacking the ‘Tea Party’ because they enjoy being invited to ‘rat cocktail parties and being lionized as ‘enlightened conservatives’, like los Booshes, McCain, McConnell, et al.

Just an ideologue that couldn’t care less about the law or the constitution.
