We are told by the likes of Schumer and Obama that to oppose the nomination of Sotomayor is to "spew nonsense." As if asking the right questions of a nominee is not responsible, patriotic and vital. Miguel Estrada was a talented Hispanic nominee for the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals who was opposed vehemently in 2003 by these same Democrats, in part because he was Hispanic, and {shudder} might have someday become the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice. But is not a flaming liberal!
{ At Estradas confirmation hearing, Schumer called him a stealth candidate, flying under the radar, heading for landing on the D.C. Circuit court. Im scared of what will happen if he is confirmed. } WSJ He Is Latino Why Dems borked Estrada, in their own words.
