Obama and Sotomayor

[cowboy45]

Do you think the wheels might be getting a little loose on Obama's Sotomayor wagon. I wonder if they have checked her tax returns and if she has a nanny or housekeeper that might be illegal?

Correction: she probably wouldnt need a nanny. Have you seen a closeup picture of her? I think it is illegal in most states to get that drunk if you know what I mean.

Very hard on the eyes and x100 uglier on the inside.

Not much worse than a racist activist on the bench, iirc, the SCOTUS has overturned 60% of her rulings that made their way to them.

 

[cowboy45]

It took almost a year to confirm her to her current post.

I joined GOA for this reason (well among others lol). The fact that they make it easy and painless to contact your reps via email about all gun related issues. take-action

I wish they would stop calling her an immigrant.. .when you come from a commonwealth to the parent country it is just moving, not immigrating..

I hadn't heard about that one. Who's calling her an immigrant?

 

[biglucky]

All the media drones. Hell I am pretty sure that Maobama called her an immigrant in his love fest introduction of her when he announced she was his nominee...

D , we say "Uglier than a mud fence dobbed with lizards" up in North & Central Texas. Sounds descriptive.

ebk06- Please contact the admin/mods and see if they can make your link a sticky. It needs to be where people can see it. Not in the back of off topic area. GREAT LINK, I have forwarded it to my Texas hunting buddies!

"Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."

Ugh. However, to put it into its proper context, the New York Times allegedly has the whole thing starting here, the part I quoted is found about a third way down page 5.

I think the important part for us is that she apparently believes that the Second Amendment is not an individual right. And the notion that it's OK to make policy from the bench.
YouTube - Sonia Sotomayor: Courts make policy full clip

I think she is another example of how Affirmative Active is merely racism masquerading as equality and justice.

Guess the next thing we are going to hear is McCain emigrated from the Panama Canal...

McCain can imigrate Back to Panama for all I care.

here we go.

Wow. Put into context, it's no better:

Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging. Justice O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am not so sure Justice O'Connor is the author of that line since Professor Resnik attributes that line to Supreme Court Justice Coyle. I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement. First, as Professor Martha Minnow has noted, there can never be a universal definition of wise. Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life.

And "national origins"? She's from Puerto frickin' Rico! She's a natural-born American!!! There is no difference in national origin!!!

I think her parents were from Puerto Rico and she was born in NYC. Not that I care either way. She's still not fit to judge.

She looks just like my wife's aunt. She's (aunt) a digbat, too.
