Breaking on FOX- the president will announce SCOTUS pick around 10 am eastern.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Prop 8 upheld in California....yeehaw
...a rare political victory to be savored.
btw, Sotomayor didn’t mention a husband...is she lesbian?
Okay, no problem.
I wish it could be *better news* involving a Puerto Rican, though... she’s way too far left...
Is this woman a moderate?
I don’t think Obama can afford to have a SCOTUS nominee go down this early in his presidency. And the Dems in the Senate are not about to let that happen.
I’m not too sure what all the fuss is about, anyway. Obama got elected, we knew we’d get liberal nominees, and in any case, with Souter as the Justice being replaced, the balance won’t change. At least the person filling that seat will be a Dem appointee .. I’m tired of hearing how Republican appointed justices did this and that ...when those include Stevens and Souter.

“Except that he’s going to get us all killed or on soup lines.”
Or in jail!

Let’s just see if Senator Nelson is a liar. My guess is he will vote for Sotomayor with no problem even though she is a proven activist judge who wants to fix “policy” from the bench not interpret the law.

Apparently, Sotomayor is a member of La Raza.
Enough to make a Patriot cry.
Late to the live thread, but thanks for the ping. Looks like he went with the liberal activist judge. I sure hope the republicans find their mojo and fast! She is a nightmare. Can’t wait to read all the posts.
“Sotomayor stated that she believed that the United States, “...may never truly be fixed. Racism and economic warfare still crush the dreams of countless second-class citizens. The unfair dimensions of our culture are staggering. You cannot succeed if you are born poor; you simply cannot.””
hmmmm...looks like she ‘succeeded’. Guess she can toss out that tired old belief now...(eye roll)
Thanks for posting this info. She sounds like a nightmare!
Obama goof today in announcing her: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiRhHqlzaG4
TOTUS: “Of the many responsibilities granted to a president by our Constitution, few are more serious or more consequential than selecting a Supreme Court justice. The members of our highest court are granted life tenure, often serving long after the presidents who appointed them. And they are charged with the vital task of applying principles put to paper more than 20 centuries ago to some of the most difficult questions of our time.”
20 centuries ago?
hmmmmm...what WAS ‘put to paper’ 20 centuries ago? If we can figure that out, we might understand Obama’s ‘motives’ and freudian slip even better than we do right now.
The Koran?
No way. Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska.
Wonderful post!
bkmrq
hehe!
just kiddin’ !
:)
It had to have been a typo. The Koran is only about 1200 years old or so. NO way a lib would be referring to the Bible in that context. It was a goof ‘m sure.
