Obama Picks Sotomayor for Court
Obama Picks Sotomayor for Court
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124334029177454217.html She has a high rate of her decisions being reversed, which indicates she is a true liberal activist even greater than the current liberal activists on the Supreme Court. Sotomayer speech at Berkeley Money quote: "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experience would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life." |
I defy anyone to name anything more illogical than a Spanish female.
This move is nothing more than "purchasing votes" for 2012. |

Your right and I bet she wont get treated like Alberto Gonzales...:rolleyes: |
Another nail in our capitalist/free democracy. She is just lard for the slope.
|
She even amits she will decide legal questions not on the law or constitutrion but on setting precedent WE are screwed.
joeg |
Recall she decided the case of the New Haven firefighters. The city held promotion exams, and white males scored the highest so they threw out the test because they 'feared' the minorities would sue even though NO bias was found in the test. I guess you must rig a test to get the answers you want nowadays, in her view. Why even bother? Just set the damn quota and promote as many of whatever aggrieved minority you want, just don't bitc* when your house burns down because of incompetence. :mad:
As I said, just a bucket of lard to grease the slippery slope. And everybody drinks the KoolAide and lathers it on BoBo. We DESERVE whatever comes for letting it get this far. |

Do ya know why Osama picked a Latino female?
Because he couldn't find a Latino female in a wheelchair. |
Saw on the news tonite durung the annoucement, OB said she was the most qualified person for the job and in fact said she was MORE qualified for the job than the present justices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Talk abut a slap in the face for the present justices........and she's a racsits,of course no news agency is gonna say that or air her racist remarks............ David |
I thought for suree he would go
with Harriet Myers...

Not to fear, the overall composition of the court won't change. Souter (the empty suit [ala Meirs] appointed by Bush 41) has voted in the liberal bloc most times, and Sotomayor will surely follow. Just PRAY that another mid-line or conservative doesn't step down.

I don't like Sotomayor either. She, by her own statements has implied a biased predisposition in favor of certain minorities' points of view. Not good for a Supreme Court judge. Her elitist claim that her life experiences have rendered her more capable of making the "right" decisions than white males is bigoted, ignorant and naive. Some of her other gaffes (like the "we make policy" foot-in-mouth statement) indicate a lack of judgement and a profound sense of self-importance. Obama may see her as a means to consolidate minority support, but I think he is failing to consider the damage people like her can do by alienating a lot of mainstream white Americans.

I think he considered quite well. With a 30% voter turnout, he doesn't give a rats a$$ about mainstream America, white or otherwise. Open the feeding troughs, spread the Obama checks, assure no voter id system is in place to clean up the rolls and he wins. The politicians have been buying votes for decades..democrats: keep 'em poor and on subsistence level income, republicans: hyperventilate about spending discipline while running up ungodly deficits. And all the while, 'mainstream America' is too damned lazy to get off it's collective a$$ and FIX a system we all know is broken. We get the government we deserve. |
this is from 2001......
DYSLEXIC WOMAN WHO FLUNKED BAR EXAM WINS SUIT Friday, August 17th 2001, 2:22AM A federal judge ruled yesterday in favor of a college administrator and law school graduate from Long Island who sued the state Board of Law Examiners in 1993, claiming that a reading disability has prevented her from passing the state bar exam five times. Judge Sonia Sotomayor of Manhattan's Second Circuit Court of Appeals said Marilyn Bartlett, 52, of West Bay Shore is entitled to "reasonable accommodations" in taking the bar exam again because she is an individual with a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act. http://www.nydailynews.com/archives/...flunked_b.html _____ She flunked the bar exam 5 times. So how did she pass law school? Some people get pushed through law school and then don’t have what it takes to pass the bar exam. But not to worry, she has a bright future in government service. |
You guys are gonna LOVE this; from case law:
Since 1991, Dr. Bartlett has taken the bar examination five times. On at least three and possibly four separate occasions, she has applied as a reading disabled candidate to take the bar examination with accommodations. 1 Dr. Bartlett has sought unlimited or extended time to take the test, permission to tape record her essays and to circle her multiple choice answers in the test booklet. The Board has denied her request each time, contending that her application does not support a diagnosis of a reading disability or dyslexia. In total, Dr. Bartlett has taken the examination four times without accommodations and has yet to pass. On July 20, 1993, after the Board denied her most recent application for accommodations, she commenced this action in the district court alleging, among other things, violations of Title II of the ADA, 42 U.S.C. § 12131 et seq. , and § 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, 29 U.S.C. § 794. In her complaint, she sought, among other things, injunctive relief in the form of reasonable testing accommodations and compensatory damages for fees paid in connection with past attempts to pass the examination. On July 26, 1993, the parties entered into a stipulation. Under its terms, Dr. Bartlett received accommodations during the July 1993 bar examination that included time-and-a-half for the New York portion of the test and the use of an amanuensis to read the test questions and to record her responses. In addition, the Board allowed Dr. Bartlett to mark the answers to the multiple choice portion of the examination in a question book rather than on a computerized answer sheet. However, the parties agreed that if Dr. Bartlett passed the examination, the results would not be certified unless she prevailed in this lawsuit. Despite accommodations, Dr. Bartlett failed the examination. I guess this boils down to: ACCOMMODATE ME 'TIL I PASS, DAMMIT! Typical liberal psychobabble with a hefty dose of plain ole BS. :LOL:**):LOL: |
