Dems have the nerve to call judges who believe in the Constitution “out of the mainstream”. Sotomajor is so far out of the mainstream she might as well be in the Sahara Desert.

Well said. If confirmed and she’ll likely be, she won’t be serving all the people or our country as she should.

Is no one supposed to ask questions about qualifications, simply because this nominee is Hispanic and a woman? Have we become that mindless?

Is this a trick question?

Question: When does the USSC become a domestic enemy of the Constitution?

Personally I would have thought the 25Jun05 ruling legitimizing of theft and larceny via “Immanent Domain” would have been a good, defining point.

Thanks for the ping jaz.

Dr. Sowell is right on the mark as usual.

Besides reversing another Sotomayor vote, wasn't one of the justices reversing her the very guy she's replacing?

And that guy is not exactly a right-wing wacko.

"Have we become that mindless? "

Yes, but the situation is FAR worse than just this case or the Fire Department brouhaha in New Haven. Alexander Cockburn's riotous take on this: "Sotomayor and the Last of the WASPs".

There was another decision of her’s that got overturned by the SC (not the Conn. firefighter case) for which Souter wrote the majority opinion for the court. I believe that’s what he was referring to.
