Are we having sympathy for her because she’s simply a female? I know lots of unattractive, over-weight women who are mothers, wives, etc.

If Obama chose her......

I don’t particularly have sympathy for her as a woman,,I do feel pity for ugly people and think it is unkind to use that as a reason to bash them.

There is probably enough to object to without resorting to this tactic and without resorting to using fantasy as an objection.

Sympathy because she’s a female? Pleeaaasee.

As if any of the males on the court (with the possible exception of Roberts) are very pleasant to look at. Bork looked like some kind of retarded Colonel Sanders, which didn’t make him any less qualified. Sorry, I’m not generally one who makes comments like this, but if she were a man, ugliness wouldn’t be an issue.

THAT SAID, some lefty types joked that Roberts might be gay because he’s good looking. So maybe it’s because, for a woman, ugly = lesbian? Not sure when we reached that conclusion as a society, but if so, I guess maybe a male justice would be suspect if he looked gay? But not just because of ugliness.
