LIVE THREAD- Obama annouces SCOTUS pick (Sotomayor) at 10 AM

FOX NEWS ^ | 26 May 2009

[SE Mom]

Breaking on FOX- the president will announce SCOTUS pick around 10 am eastern.

[Cboldt]

Foxnews confirms that pick. Sotomayor.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

All are very liberal activists. Wood or Janet will be his choice to stab us in the back. Remember... he blocked Bushes nom but he has ordered his choice in pass hearings quickly (July).

FoxNews Alert confirms it to be Sonia Sotomayor

[DogBarkTree]

SOTOMAYOR! Great/ Legislate from the bench why dontcha, puta.

[popdonnelly]

Given the left-wing activism of this President, the pick is bound to be a bad one.

[SE Mom]

I swear Bah- not a DAY goes by that he’s not on tv.

Looks like Sotomayor is the one..

[tiredoflaundry]

The Judge on Fox says this was the most liberal pick *O* could have made.

Lev 19:15
‘Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly.

Notice nothing about “empathy”.

FoxNews

Judge Napolitano says Sotomayer is the most liberal of the 8 prospects.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

How is it leaked so quick did Rahm leak it? They are so tacky...

[GreaterSwiss]

At least Bush 1 appointed her too... Like Souter :-)

[McGruff]

Looks like the battle has already begun. The Case Against Sotomayor.

[popdonnelly]

Yep, it’s a bad one.

Bound to be praised by leftist academics and their reflecting mirrors in the news media.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

LOL and feminists say Wood is most liberal.

[Miss Didi]

Karl says Barry has to win over ONE Repub on the committee...no problem there. Karl thinks it will be a victory politically but not on policy. Laura Ingraham thinks it will be the most "unconfirmable" choice while he is so wildly popular (rolling eyes). Bill Kristol thinks it's going to be Gov. Granholm.

[TomGuy]

FoxNews

Sotomayer was initially appointed to the Federal bench by .... GHW Bush.

[popdonnelly]

Will the leftist crowd that criticized Roberts and Alito criticize this nonentity?

[SE Mom]

Nappy said he predicted Diane Wood- would have been perceived as a consensus builder- Sotomayor is a clear idealogue.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

I just checked the wires no name is leaked. Diane Wood looks to be the choice for what Obama said on C SPAN.

[khnyny]

Judge Napolitano on Fox is saying that Sotomayor is the most liberal of the bunch. Says that Sotomayor is NOT a consensus builder and that Obama is making a statement with this pick.

Let the games begin. It’s going to get ugly.
