OBAMA PICKS FAR LEFTY 4 SC

Sotomayer is (of course) a far far left activist judge who believes in legislating from the bench…

Any media talk of a tough confirmation will be a lie…
Any media talk of moderation will be a lie…

Any media talk of her moderating after being on the SC will be a lie…
(the SC lefties never moderate, there is no record of that, ever)

Any media talk of her track record being moderate will be a lie…
(sample judicial opinions: settling a baseball strike in favor of those
poor baseball players, avg salary $1 million; ruling that something
from Seinfeld was copyright-protected; ruling that white firefighters
have no reverse discrimination claim…)
(scant mention of her Catholic school education so that the hypocrisy of her pro-abortion views won’t be SO obvious)

Sadly, a Bush (of course) started her promotions so that will be said a thousand times as some sort of moderate signal…its NOT…
As expected, a radical kook lefty prefers radical kook lefties.

How sick is it that these commentators think that POLITICS is a solid foundation for selecting a judge?

God save us all, 'cause sure as death and taxes nobody else will.

She was also in Mr. Kotter's class.

That should give her a solid 10 on the Compell-O-Meter.

Judge Sotomayor is exactly what Obama wanted... a nominee who is unashamedly activist and admits it, and one who is 'cool.' 

Nominating the first Hispanic woman to the Supreme Court also heightened Obama's coolness factor.  By showing He is hip and cool by nominating another hip and cool leftist, Couric and the leftist media are left breathless.  After all, the 'life story' part of the process will overshadow the nominee's judicial view.

Team Obama turned in a nominee who - unless the GOP grows a backbone - could well turn out to be the most activist in court history.  She has a compelling life story and above all... is cool. (to see what the coolness factors were, you can look at: http://firstconserva... )

She's going to wind up on the court, no matter what the conservatives do. The votes simply aren't there. Throwing down the gauntlet won't work. If the voters are persuaded by people who act "reasonably," fine - act reasonably.

I think the smartest thing to do is to have senators on the Judiciary Committee draw out her philosophy. Make it clear that she believes in the "living constitution" nonsense, and that she believes that her demographics determine her vote. Let them register their objections calmly, without histrionics. Let them explain why her philosophy is an academic conceit, and isn't based on constitutional principles. Explain the case to the American people. Remind the GOP voters who stayed home, and any reasonable people who voted for Obama, that this is the philosophy their vote supports.

But, leave any shrieking aside. Make the case, and let it go. There's simply nothing you can do about it, so make the best of what you can. Make your case strongly, but without any dramatics.

The next nominee is where you make the fight.

Notice, by the way, that the liberals are no longer upset that yet another Supreme Court justice is Catholic. FYI.

Anybody hear Chuck E. Cheesy Schumer's tripe this morning with his blathering on about what a wonderful pick she is...I've heard she was of course his choice for the vacancy on the SC.

The New Haven firefighters have to feel real great about this leftist activist pick. 

Doubling down on stupid is not a particularly good idea. ~Andrew Breitbart

I feel compelled to hurl.

It really bothers me when the left is allowed to be racisit and get away with it.  She has made comments admitting her own racisim by saying she would be better qualified to make decisions than a white male.  This would never be tolerated if made by a conservative!  She also added to that, that a white man wouldn't have lived life enough to make a better conclusion on a case. She also said this on tape, “court of appeals is where policy is made.” She then immediately adds: “And I know — I know this is on tape, and I should never say that because we don’t make law.  God help us all...............

The Sotomayor suck up brigade are out the chute and poised to spread the lies about this twit and completely ignore her judicial activism and radicalism.

Just heard on Rush that this judge has been overturned over 80% percent of the time, has been reprimanded and admitted at a conference at Duke University:

 • In a 2005 panel discussion at Duke University, Sotomayor told students that the federal Court of Appeals is where "policy is made." She and other panelists had been asked by a student to describe the differences between clerking in the District Court versus in the Circuit Court of Appeals. Sotomayor said that traditionally, those interested in academia, policy, and public interest law tend to seek circuit court clerkships. She said, "All of the legal defense funds out there, they're looking for people with Court of Appeals experience. Because it is -- Court of Appeals is where policy is made. And I know, and I know, that this is on tape, and I should never say that. Because we don't 'make law,' I know. [audience laughter] Okay, I know. I know. I'm not promoting it, and I'm not advocating it. I'm, you know. [audience laughter] Having said that, the Court of Appeals is where, before the Supreme Court makes the final decision, the law is percolating. Its interpretation, its application."

Eventhough she backpedaled on what she said, the fact is if a conservative had made a similiar statement the left would be calling for his/her disbarrment.

The fact is this woman is a walking, talking, breathing, clusterf**k of a judge and should be kept as far away from the supreme court as possible. 

IF you wanted a Hispanic woman who wants to put her feelings into decisions on the bench, why not nominate Jennifer Lopez?  She is perfect for the position.  She is Hispanic, a woman, no qualifications as a judge and she is much better looking than this loser, Sonia Sotomayor.

“paint her as someone with a liberal agenda inclined to be biased towards the little guy or minorities.”

It will take some doing for a member of the media to produce a more dishonestly loaded statement presented as objective analysis of this pseudo-judge.

And leave it to Katie "Show pony in a three horse race" Couric and Bob "World's Longest Serving 2nd Banana" Schieffer to frame Socialist Sotamayor as a nominee with a "compelling life story".  No analysis of her overt racism, her judicial incompetence or her partisan activism.  Just the usual irrelevant fluff...the focus group-tested phrases, the marketing research-generated branding and the slick repackaging.  The Judge from Hope.

Sarah Palin had a pretty compelling life story and I seem to recall that no one had much trouble going after her.

Let's see---an ordinary girl who grew up in a small town way out in the middle of nowhere, elected to the PTA, ran for mayor and won, ran against a powerful incumbant for governor of the largest state in the union and beat him, took on the old-boy network and prevailed, finally nominated for the second highest office in the land--what a compelling story! No wonder Katie is so excited and enthused over this amazing woman!! Oh wait, wrong compelling story. Never mind....

   I think Sodamaker should be subject to the same questioning that Blo-hard Jo Biteone subjected Justice Thomas to, if we are being politically  correct to the candidate. His Honor also had a tough life, but to be berated by a scum bucket like the gaffer is to bear a very unwarranted  humiliation, from a lo life no class ass.
