  • She's always throwing other people under the bus.

  • Listen to her carefully, this is the essence of Liberalism. Not following the law as it was written, but to change the law to fit the emotional component to the case. If the law is unfair, it's not up to the judges to change it. That role belongs to the legislature. EMOTIONS, Fairness, Unfairness, feelings, insecurity, weakness and a Pacifist is the essence of the Liberal to force equality.

  • roman

    You, too, obviously don't know what you're talking about. Did you know that there was an Hispanic that passed that test along with the white firefighters and she voted against the Hispanic firefighter too? Obviously you didn't know that because you said "just becuase [sic] the mexicans didnt she fucking disapproved the promotion." Well, the "Mexican" did pass and she still "disapproved" so you're statement was a complete fail.

  • lol

  • The fact that she was confirmed is a victory for our nation. Congratulations Justice Sonia Sotomayor. A proud nation salutes you.

  • A proud nation! HA! This clan of MARXISTS apologizes to their own shadow. Ovomit should just paint WE'RE SORRY on the bottom of Airforce one, save us some money on gas.

  • dadd

    Again, you don't know what you're talking about. Obama has never merely apologized for our actions, though we have done things that we should apologize for, he has pointed out where BOTH nations have fallen short of what would be considered an ideal relationship. Fox News doesn't show you that. If you watch a video here on YouTube entitled "Sean Hannity on Obama's Arrogant Speech in France" you will see what he REALLY said.

  • Your full of shit beeshor1, Ovomit apologizes everywhere he can, he'a marxist idealogue not to mention an incompetent failed community organizer (agitator).

  • dadd

    I see that even after you watch the video that shows the truth about what Obama has been saying, you still only believe what you want to believe. That means you're an idiot and you don't care about the facts. It's telling that you don't respond with facts but instead you basically say "Obama is what I say he is because I said it". Well, that's mature and bright of you. Today's conservative would be proud of you. You've exemplified exactly what they're about.

  • beeshor1, you're a mindless drone! Ovomit is a MARXIST and has pretty much said so himself. Just look at the company he has kept in the past. Do you know who his self-proclaimed mentor is? I doubt it.

  • dadd

    You're a brainwashed buffoon! You don't even know what a Marxist is. Obama certainly isn't one. But what do you know? All you can say is whatever you heard Glenn Beck spout from his insanely inspired mouth! Keep listening to that crazy moron. You two deserve each other!

  • As I figured your stupid ass would skirt the issue of my ? Do you know who Ovomit's mentor is? It's Frank Davis, look him asshole, then tell me he's not a Marxist.....He most certainly is..An incompetent radical one at that. He is without ? the most incompetent, economically illiterate fuckhead...ever to step foot in the White House.

  • dadd

    What Obama did as a youth and the man he is today can be two different things. When I was young, I stole a car. Today, I would never dream of doing such a thing. You people know better but it helps you hate someone that has a different idea of how things should be. He's no Marxist, communist or fascist but what's the use? You'll always be an ignorant partisan without the decency of disagreeing with your opponents honestly. You'll resort to this name-calling when it doesn't apply.

  • Numbnuts, would you prefer facist or communist since marxist doesnt seem to sit well with you. You keep walking lockstep with these entitlement brokers and see where it gets you......nowhere....but you're already there!

  • Watch her eyes when she has a difficult question to address. Her blinking goes crazy. She is lying her way to confirmation.

    Lying, lying, lying, and the democrats are supporting her all the way. Shame on them.

  • look mexican?

    hahahahahahahahahahaha

  • these republicans demonstrate that racism is alive and well and ugly as ever in this country.

  • SHE LOOKS MEXICAN not PUERTORICAN

  • This bitch will contradict anything she ever said to get the job and she will try to make law from the judicial bench as she often said judges should do.

    Unqualified to serve. She is where she is solely because of Affirmative Action - she has said so publicly.

  • Personally I think Judge Sotomayor is a racist and believes that Latinos and more specifically Latino women are more inclined to make wiser choices than a white male. That's not "reverse racism" it's just racism. But on the other hand Senator Sessions is a fool who is making an ass of himself with these questions. Impartiality IS an aspiration and can never really be achieved. (By the way I am a black male)

  • @MrMagneticPelican Can anyone point me to a WISE latina woman who has made better or even WISE decisions before? In all of those third world shitholes that are 'latino', wheres the WISE decision making women? Its a myth. Kind of like the 'black power' or 'blacks are bigger/better/etc' myth made to overcome inadequacies and lift up the weak or those unwilling to find worth in themselves personally.

    Wise latinas breed like cockroaches..am i missing anything?

  • "dignity"

  • Some of the oldest questions in "LAW" was asked like: "DO you think the law can be interpreted?" what is this first year Law school where you setup your student to

    pull a spaz attack in the middle of the room to let the class know you're the "teacher"?

  • Some of these questions are so funny! LMAOO - example : Do you let your experiences effect the facts? LMAOO - experiences determined his Party of choosing, if all judgements were impartial; judged with out memory? Judged with out experience? des that make any sense at all? His question is :

    Can you Judge with out experince? - that in more simpler terms is his annoying question- shes probably what the fuck are you smokin behind that desk?

  • I was watching this one on c-span when it was on- Some of the answers I wasn't terribly clear on- but then again the loaded questions were pretty annoying I'm sure. lol

  • They sure pounded her.. She earned the job just by dealing with the process-

  • what's so wrong with the wise latina comment? i thought it was common sense that our experiences shape who we are. i get why some people think it's racist. but kinda obvious she's not being racist. i know that without my experiences i wouldn't be who i am today. just like with Benjamin Franklin, the greatest historical figure(in my opinion, wouldn't be the scientist/politician is without his experiences.

  • Stop paying taxes END this

  • Her words were true, eventhough other Judges try to deny it. We all are shaped by or life experiences. Judges take oath to be fair and inpartial, but that is also determine by thier life experiences. To say the being black, white, latino or other, in combination with life experience want effect how we see things is either lieing or being nieve. "the heart is deceitful above all things who can know it". We all believe we do not have biases, but we, you/I do.

  • Too many right-wingers on YouTube for 20%. am starting to think they are hired by the republicans to write comments.

  • Evasive answers worthy of a sold out political hack from the wards of Chicago. Or in Judge Sotomayor's case, Nuevo York .

  • The fact that the prominent lines of questioning so often require the appearance of reversal lends merit to non-confirmation. If you review the hearings of Scalia, Ginsburg, Thomas and Breyer, you see that the theme of confirmation questioning was entirely different, and two those were Clinton appointees questioned by Republican majorities. She will be confirmed and it will be a shame. I can think of six female judges who would be better, and two of those qualify as double minorities.

  • It is disconcerting that that any judges words would require so much elucidation to reverse the appearance of their intent, when the original language used seemed very clearly to state the opposite. Judges are so much more held to a standard of coherence because of the position they hold. Even more so would the imperative exist for a Supreme Court judge whose rulings will be become foundational long after explanation by the author is available (once they are deceased).

  • beeshor1 and dadd, get your own thing going somewhere else and leave all of this for us.  All you are doing is fighting each other and not paying attention to what is going on. Grow up or get over it. There, that should put both of you together, against me!

  • first

    You made me laugh, ol' boy! Good one!

  • Sotomayor for the win!!!!!!

  • Everyone knows she is a bigot. If she said it she meant it(she said it 6times), she ought to have the guts to stand by what she says.If you care about private property, guns, the right to life, American Sovereingty, the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence; call your Senator @1-202-224-3121 and demand that they vote no on Sotomayor's confirmation. It is a lifetime job. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. Good Job Senator! Stick to your guns,keep ours

  • she's quite the backpedaler

  • I understand that she's the first hispanic woman to be nominated, but she's somewhat of a hippocrite. She's claiming that she wants equallity. Yet she's being somewhat prejudice about her statements about certain topics.

  • Same old statements from her about how her ethnicity and experiences affect her decisions. Same old excuse about how that is not what she meant.

  • Comment removed

  • This guy Should know that ALL laws change throughout the years. We are not robots, all humans have lifes and experiences which change the path humanity follows same as they change the laws. Its hard for me to see a guy so fucking stuck in the book and that just got his own "quotes" slapped in his face cause the person was right there supporting sotomayor and stills goes on with it. Anyways, i'm not into politics, they will keep that game regardless :)

  • as a non-american, can anyone tell me why presidential candidates, senators or congressmen don't go through this same process for their positions in office?.... serious question.

  • Well, it's been fun. But I have to go now. My little girl wants to use the computer for her games. Perhaps we'll pick up later. Until then, good-bye!

  • Sessions was turned down as a judge! He knows a racist ... he allegedly made a variety of comments that congress pointed to, when he jokingly said that "the Ku Klux Klan was not so bad until he found out that some of them smoked marijuana." Sessions also allegedly referred to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) as "un-American" and "Communist-inspired" because they "forced civil rights down the throats of people"

  • Fuck you glen beck

  • Amazing!!! All of the sudden, this racist pig has the brain power to understand and evade her own racism!!

    What a pile of garbage!!

    The left shout be pissed off!!~

  • I wish she would say, "Yes, Senator Sessions. I believe that you are a spoiled white money grubbing bastard who has a very myopic and selective view of this world. Someone like me, who has actually struggled and worked in her life, has a greater ability to use good judgment, because good judgment has been so much more necessary in my life than in yours. You, sir, are a robot who nitpicks quotes in order to supply evidence for your distorted reality, which is something I don't have time for."

  • The comments she made were off the cuff, a lot like that comments made by anyone. No one should be penalized for that; what should be looked at is her record, and as it stands it's a sounds record. And in response to the Democratic party being racist- common. If you know the history of the parties you'd know that it took one presidential race in the late 1800s to define the parties we know today. This is all getting way too out of hand.

  • Comment removed

  • I don't understand how this lady is being considered for the supreme court after the statements she has made.

  • The democratic party is the most racist party in history! They created aff act because they didn't think minority races could make it without help.  Yes socialism is anti-american, it takes away free choice, it kills innovation. What if we start a white college fund? How about if a white girl tries to get into miss black america, they are in the standard miss america. Better still lets create a miss white america, oh no that would be racist, you are a fool

  • john

    You talk about the Democratic party being more racist when the Republican party is full of racist. They have found a home there and they are made to feel welcome. At the tea parties, there were dozens, if not hundreds, of signs with blatant racist messages. That party is also homophobic. But the new trick you guys use is trying to somehow paint those who have been the victims of racism as the real racist. You are an idiot if you believe it but I'm sure you don't. That makes you a liar.

  • You are not a smart man, incapable of linear thought process. I was at the tea parties, I saw no racist signs, period! So you think its fine to reverse racism, that is the obvious point you're trying to make. I have, and have seen my friends lose their jobs to less qualified individuals because of their race. How is that not racism? Now you want to debate same-sex marriage? Your thought process is anything but linear and you say i'm the "idiot liar" silly lib

  • john

    I addressed your racism claims. I pointed out the homophobic character of the Republican party only briefly. I wasn't trying to steer the debate in another direction.

  • fair enough, if you want me to point out dem inconsistancies I can do that? But you still havent mentioned why temp is increasing on mars, look it up.

  • What's happening here is all of the racists in America are starting to get scared that their long reign of power wielding is coming to an end. They are hollering "reverse discrimination" and "socialism" all over the place. Yes, it's true that we must stop the Hispanics and blacks who have been terrorizing and holding back white folks for decades! [eyeroll!] Please! Just sit down and be quiet. You lost the election. Sotomayor will be seated. There are 60 Democrats in the Senate. Your time is over

  • She started with the racist comments. She said, "im sure I'll be able to do a better job then some dumb old white guy"

  • See? more racisim. If Obama were white you worthless inbred trailer trash would love him.  Good thing we have the votes and can ignore you stupid asses.

  • This fat mexican woman Supreme Judge is just another example of liberals turning this nation into a godless, immoral, agnostic soshulist nation! I will NOT allow it! I will NOT allow these liberal high school teechers teeching my children about EVILution and all this science crap! I will NOT allow liberal federal marshals to take my guns! I will NOT allow my childrens to be brane-washed at lib collages and universitites! I Will NOT allow libs to take away my Bible!

  • Who wants your fucking garbage bible? It's nothing but a pile of dog shit, just like you and your fake jesus.  obviously you don't read your shit or else you would be lovie dovie even though she's a "dirty spic cunt" like you said. See? God told me to tell you to suck my cock until "Jesus milk" shoots out all over your face. When can I expect you? Please leave your teeth out.

  • Mmhmm, and how do you plan on "not allowing" these things to happen?

  • Wanda

    And just what are you gonna do about it? You guys lost. Big time. You're losing credibility everyday. Your so-called "family values" crap turned out to be just that, CRAP. The only thing that the right-wing is good for these days is a laugh. The nation is laughing at you fools. Your refusal to accept scientific facts. Your insistence on telling others how to live a virtuous lifestyle while getting busted in airport men's rooms and "hiking the Appalachian Trail". You're all frauds.

  • Scientific "facts" there is little about science that a scientist even claims to be fact, that's dumb, sorry. Additionally, you want to tell me that a Ice core from near the south pole is going to actually show a correlation to a set of tree rings in the northern hemisphere? If you really buy that then you're the idiot!

  • john

    There is plenty about science that the Republicans refuse to accept. Global warming is widely accepted as real in the scientific community. About 80% of scientists believe it's real. Those that don't usually have some ties to big oil. But you people are against anything that threatens the bottom-line or your precious bible. You guys are the laughing stock of the nation.

  • Paleoclimatology is the keystone to the whole argument, and its claims are moronic. The r values of the correlation would have been rejected in the normal scientific community. Palecli.. is the claim behind understanding CO2 levels prior to building our observatory in HI. I've studied this sh** a lot, believe me. After looking at both sides I can't get on the CO2 bandwagon. Its like the seventies reversed when the same morons said we were headed for another ice age. Mars is warming too!!!

  • john

    OK since you claim to have studied it a lot, then tell me, oh wise one, why does near 80% of scientist conclude that global warming is real? What about paleoclimatology is "moronic"? Since you're an authority on this and no more than the vast majority of scientists, maybe you can enlighten me.

  • john

    Excuse me. I meant "know" as opposed to "no" in my third sentence.

  • Al Gore (the whore) will be the first Global warming BILLIONAIRE. His personal wealth has increased 5000 times. Only Govt. paid scientists are ALLOWED to speak on the hill. The vast majority of ALL Scientists debunk GW for what it is.....A SCAM. Think about "you can emit as much as you want, you just have to pay for it" while China, india are saying fuck you. Carbon is not a pollutant, its what we exhale, plants love it they turn it to oxygen. 50 million yrs. ago the atmos. had 10,000 times..

  • dadd

    Your claim that the vast majority of scientists have debunked GW is false. The vast majority of scientists believe that GW is real!

  • The vast majority of UN scientists believe GW is real, thats who pays them. The UN is pushing GW for the reason of re-distributing wealth. The under developed countries will be selling the shit out of credits, therefore, taking OUR money. The UN just fired a scientist for debunking the UN 2000 model that had a steady rise in temp for the forseeable future yet since 2004 the temps. around the globe have fallen. When he tried to go public with thier model an a actual model, he was fired.....FACT

  • I already did! The r value of correlation was .6. To be acceptable it has to be minimal .9. The tree rings compared were in a whole different region! Regions go through sporatic, localized changes. I agree that the temp has risen 1 degree world wide avged since 1970, that is not debatable, but it has also increased on mars, did we, or CO2 cause that too? Nope, try the solar cycle!

  • as for your rediculious 80% claim, what percent of those are studying on govt grants? Who has something to gain here? Follow the money, it is ignorant. It has become a wonderful religion for you libtards, go buy some "gets" oh I mean carbon credits idiot

  • john

    Also, your insinuation that scientists who receive government grants would skew the facts is laughable. The global warming debate was skewered by the Bush administration when a staffer purposely re-worded a report to exclude any info that supported the global warming reality. Government didn't want global warming to be real. Yet, scientists still said it was. How do you account for this little anomaly?

  • more carbon and everything flourished. Man cannot cause GW, period. If you follow this shit, you are a drone. The credits will be sold at the CHICAGO exhange...UMMMMM, funny.

  • This is a religion to these tools, no evidence, no facts. What a joke, and they accuse us of being stupid.

  • john

    "no evidence, no facts...."

    You are completely dismissing evidence that has been reported because you are a right-wing idiot. They have shown how the ice is melting at rates never before recorded by man. What do you account this to? This isn't just some natural fluctuation in temps. This is a man-made phenomenon.

  • They just found a chunk of ice as big as California......and they said oooopppps! Our positioning equip failed. Check out the Greenland ice myth. Man CANNOT cause GW, period.

  • I think were going to make him mad by debunking his religion:(

  • john

    You haven't "debunked" anything. All you've done is show your bias. You're quick to point out someone's ties to government [which in itself doesn't prove a bias] but you'll overlook someone's ties to big oil which clearly has a dog in the fight. You're just an idiot who want accept that the majority is right. The majority of scientists believe GW is real. Yet, you think you know more than them. What else is new. You right-wingers thought we'd find WMD in Iraq. Complete idiots.

  • Nope, the CIA thought we'd find WMD's in Iraq! I thought we created the saddam mess with the penut farming Jimmy Carter and subsequent administrations. I thought he was guilty of violating 17 UN resolutions, I thought he invaded 2 of his neighbors and tried to create a genocide out of the Kurds, and I thought it was time to clean up the mess that a poor forign policy created, Saddam. You lib little birdies w/ your beeks open, WMD'S, WMD's. WA WA WA. you don't stand a chance little man

  • john

    I don't stand a chance? YOU GUYS LOST! BIG TIME! You're losing everyday! The country is laughing at you! You guys are the comic fodder of the entire world and you're saying I don't stand a chance? Wow! How completely disillusioned are you?

  • Oh, so because I vote the same way as a block of people that lost this election you think you can out debate me. Are you a little kid, I havent checked your profile but you're definitely not educated. And your beloved messiah is slipping in the polls, more strong dissaprovals then approvals for the policies that the R's said he would push.

  • john

    And I'm guessing that you're so educated that you have totally figured out that GW is a hoax while the rest of the world's scientist haven't. Yeah, if you've done that, I bow down to your superior intellect. Please. You guys have got so many things wrong that we already know about. All you can do is speculate on the future and claim that you know what's happening. Forgive me if I think that you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

  • Many have, and BTW I have more education then the majority of the scientists so thanks for the compliment

  • john

    Well, if you're so educated and have figured out that GW is a hoax, then why don't you put an end to the debate? Since you're the man with the plan, put up or shut up.

  • Because I love pissing off libtards

  • Forget about it John! I checked the pea-brains profile he's an Obamabot from Chicago....nough said.

  • dadd

    And you're a Navy reject with a bad knee. Plus, you're a right-wing imbecile. A double whammy!

  • john

    Well, you're failing, big time! I'm nowhere near pissed. I'm amused at your ignorance and bias. I love telling you losers just how much you losers lost! YOU LOST! How's that for pissing off "libtards"?

  • Nope, I think you're pissed. I think its great too. Hey on a side note, I don't know if you've read it, but pick up a copy of Selling to VITO, he's a total lib so you should like it, but its one of the better sales books ive read though

  • john

    No, that's where your thought process has failed you again because I'm not pissed. In fact, I haven't had this much fun in all day! But I would never make the mistake of thinking that a right-winger would get the correct conclusion from their thinking caps. It's just par for the course with you simpletons.

  • I have 2BS's and an MBA, Im also a self employed business owner at 27, you work in sales, who's the simpleton?

  • john

    You're a brilliant man. I'm sure of it because you've got GW all figured out but you would rather spend your time on YouTube debating a salesman. Yeah, you're a great example of an enlightened mind.

  • john

    Also, since you're talking about liberal reads I have a good suggestion. It doesn't require reading, only listening. Check out "Jim Cornette's rant against the right-wing" here on YouTube. You'll get a kick out of that.

  • I'll actually check it out. Unlike libs I like to gather information from a variety of places before blindly following like some lemming

  • Oh yea, and Atlas Shrugged, but that one aught to cure you of your liberal thinking

  • john

    You right-wingers and your Ayn Rand book. Did they pass those out at the Republican convention?

  • She was a strong libertarian tool. What about her book from the communist perspective? Either (Fountain head, or Anthem) not sure

  • If I got something wrong, call me on it. Point it out. You don't realize that the scientists are just speculating? They said ice age in the 70s, rapid warming past the "tipping point" in 2000, then when 2004 came along we had cooled by 4 degrees, then it became rapid climate change. Have you slept through all of it? Oh I see ur in sales, don't have to or want to think for that matter

  • wrong agian, not looking so good for you:( there was a more significant period of warming in the middle ages. Areas were populated that isn't feesible today. So when you read about the ice melting back and ancient people and animals being discovered, what goes through your mind. Linearly one would presume that when that person was trapped in the ice, the ice was at that level. These prehistoric findings don't just sink down into existing ice libtard

  • You keep saying facts! do you not understand what science even is? It is hypothesis, tests, then theories. I can make a graph with a correlation of people blowing ass in So cal, and then generate wind samples in the sahara and then formulate a correlation between the two. It is not difficult if you know what you are doing. It doesn't mean its the cause. If govt didn't want it to be real, why did they cut funding to the scientist who said it wasn't?

  • john

    Your claim that only scientists that said GW is false got funding cut is false. Scientist got funding cut across the board. No one is cutting the funds of scientists that are out to disprove GW exclusively.

  • WRONG, read some info other then your liberal crap. Start with Roy Spencers Climate Confusion!

  • john

    No, you need to read something other than right-wing propaganda. Scientists are not being under funded merely because they are trying to disprove global warming.

  • Roy Spencer is politically nuetral retard! Nice feeble attempt at saving face

  • john

    I see that your Mr. Spencer has ties to ExxonMobil. Why am I NOT surprised?

  • I see your "scientists" have a UN endorsed paycheck. Why am I NOT supprised?

  • John, it's no-use, these clowns will only wake up when its too late. Not only was there significant warming in the middle ages it was on avg. 5 deg. warmer than today! Beeshort, you're short on common sense the SUN is the power we humans cant control it, hell we dont even understand it.

  • agreed, and well said

  • Every one of these so-called "global warming debunkers" have ties to big oil. Yet, you point out a motivation from scientists to government. Why doesn't a tie to oil companies who have a clear stake in the argument not alarm you? I'll tell you why. Because you're a right-wing buffoon who eats up anything some conservative talking head feeds you.

  • What have you to say about the prehistoric findings? What about the increasing temp on mars?  You are such a silly little lemming liberal

  • john

    What have you to say about the vast majority of scientists believing GW is real? Oh, I forgot, you have "studied" this and you know more than the majority of scientists. I'll leave you to your happy ignorance.

  • I provided plenty of evidence for you to hopefully examine both sides of the issue, if you choose not to do so, I leave you to your lemming ways

  • john

    By "plenty of evidence" I assume you mean the kind of evidence that would sway the majority of scientists into not believing GW. Because obviously that is what you mean. Or maybe you mean your mentioning of Roy [ExxonMobil] Spencer? Yeah, I guess you did provide plenty of evidence [eyeroll!].

  • The tie to EM wasn't until after he even wrote the book libtard. Additionally, the evidence that I provided was factual, mars heating, perhistoric discoveries as the Ice melts back, bad r values and experiments, and a significant warming in the middle ages. All you can do is ignore those facts and pretend they dont exist. Its ok, you can buy your carbon credits since you're obviously that stupid. Im not stopping you

  • and out come the sockpuppets....

    wanda4ecentvalues = blamerepublicans, in case that wasn't obvious.

    it's just worth noting that progressives only ever lie about anything and that the only tools they come to the public sphere equipped with are lies, calumny, deceit and defamation.

  • Comment removed

  • She sounds incompetent! There's even a video of her calling herself the result of affirmative action where she talks about scoring lower then her peers in Princeton and Yale. No wonder she ruled in favor of reverse-discrimination in NewHeaven case.

  • im watching this stoned and lost track after 1 minute...

  • Obama is an idiot for picking this dumb lady.

  • I dont think she's going to make it.

  • she shouldn't! but she will...

  • America is a pluralistic society and the fabric of American society, and by default, America jurisprudence can only be enriched by the variety of life experiences each member brings to it. That's ALL she meant. Her record is VERY moderate--literal to the rule of law. Had she substituted "conservative christian" for "wise Latina" in her speech, would Republicans be grilling her on that? Clarence Thomas and Scalia believe in Natural Law. Now--that's scary.

  • Mini bar empty....fuck

  • Comment removed

  • what's disgusting about the progressives' smears and ritualistic defamation of sessions for speaking the truth about sotomayor's racism is that he actually has a record of fighting her party's segregationist, racist, klan-supporting constituents and officials.

    sessions filed 20 or 30 civil-rights cases to desegregate schools and political organizations and county commissions when he was a us attorney. he actually prosecuted the klan.

    progressives only ever lie about anything.

  • clemtoe--

    ...or speak out of their rear ends...really the display of ignorance on here is just astounding as usual. People are commenting on how well she speaks, etc., rather than showing they know anything substantive about her like her judicial philosophy. But these are the same idiots who voted for Obama (i.e. style over substance).. Sorry to say it, folks, but we're on the slippery slope going down fast. There's no other way to say it--the average American is now stupid.

  • worded perfectly! I second that

  • So Sotomayor is....a Dixiecrat? "Her" party's segregationist, racist, klan-supporting constituents, etc, etc. Didn't think there were many Dixiecrats in the South Bronx. Her record speaks for her judicial philosophy--cautious, methodical, and bound by the rule of law.

  • you wish the democrat party's devotion to racial segregation was limited to the couple dozen who broke off to form the dixiecrat party...and subsequently returned to the democrat party, where they stayed comfortably until their retirements.

    her party - the democrat party - who's goal is to divide and destroy this country through the exploitation of race and racism.

  • You have no idea what a Dixiecrat is. OMG! How hilarious! The 'couple dozen'. OMG! LOL! Who....LOL....'broke off'. OMG! Subsequently....returned...Ha. ha..ha! Don't you even...try to Google what you clearly have no clue about? Oh, you poor silly thing....I have tears from laughing. I have to show your post to my husband. He was a Civil Rights worker in the 60s. He'll love this bit of.....revisionist history...LOL!

  • i don't even know what that's supposed to mean to me, that your husband was a "civil rights worker" in the 60's. the dixiecrat party existed for one election in the late 40's.

    i suspect that your "husband" is as much a theatrical contrivance as was the little clown dance you performed, meaning to evoke smug confidence in knowledge of things which, sadly, you've demonstrated that you have no knowledge of at all.

    ellipses...and...LOL...uh....a­nd, er ...valley girl snark....ha ha ha...= FAIL

  • Wow her every response is basically "I didn't mean to say that, I meant to say something else." As a law student, I can't imagine anyone with a law education supporting her. The thing's she's said throughout her career should throw red flags everywhere and now she's just backtracking in order to please opponents.

  • neglectedurchin.Hey chinese cowards!The 90% from the Gorvement! Any else?

    Don't be shame to taking out your comments ,when you did comments to me.Bye Idiot

  • sessions cant help it

    the man who said he was ok with the klan until he figured out that some of them smoked pot, and thought that was a funny joke

    words mean a lot, he just feels his own words dont

  • hmm she could be good for the job...

  • don't take my guns biatch.

  • ooops. accidental thumbs down.

  • hahah.... check out the two guys in the background whispering and laughing at around 2:46 when sessions is talking about Judge Sederbaum (or however you spell it.) and why he agrees with her.

    What he DOESN'T know is that not only is she sitting RIGHT BY Sotomayor, but she AGREES with Sotomayor!!

    Sessions, you are officially a m.o.r.o.n.

  • Strict constructionists?? What it means to you conserve the constitution that was primarily written for the conservative white men (I left out white women deliberately). So no wonder why the strict constructionists are your kind of judges.

  • "Strict Constructionism" means that they follow the Constitution as written--they don't make law as they go along based on their own experiences or frames of reference based on sex or race--which is what Sotomayor advocates when she says that "the court is where policy (i.e. law) is made." This is dangerous to the country and erodes your freedoms as well as mine (not to mention those of generations yet to be born). Google "strict constructionism" as you don't seem to have a clue what it is.

  • If you dont agree with the Constitution.. If you dont agree with the liberties and freedoms you have enjoyed which are protected by The Constitution, get the hell out of my country douche

  • conservative white men? like paine, jefferson and franklin, who admired the carnage of the proto-marxist "revolution" in france?

    you're too ignorant to have a discussion with. you should stop humiliating yourself in the comments here.

  • if she becomes the justice, were all fucked. and all the latinos and illegal dumbasses here are going to be running around raising hell. she is lyring out of her ass she keeps switching her views..

    BY THE WAY : RATE MY SINGING VIDEO ON MY LINK SINGING "APOLOGIZE" ONE REPUBLICE (ill return the favor)

  • do you have proof of this? with actual decisions from her to back up your assertions?

    if she becomes the justice, were all fucked. and all the latinos and illegal dumbasses here are going to be running around raising hell.

  • She can really hold her own.

  • This line of questioning only goes to reinforce my belief that conservatives are deaf, dumb, and blind to the reality of our society today. They just can't tolerate the fact that we're becoming a more diverse society as time goes by, and their attitudes are really shameful. My heritage is half Hispanic, and that fact has a bearing on every aspect of my life, and on the way I look at the issues of the day. It's only natural. But that in itself does not mean that I'm incapable of being objective.

  • Again I say Sen. Sessions is a big southern hick. He is an embarassment. And for those interested, I am a white southern male! I am ashamed of him!

    (I'm from Louisiana)

  • He IS a hick. Alabama is proud of him, I'm sure.

  • Leo--So we have a hick calling another hick a hick! LOL Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! No I lived in N.C. for years so I have an understanding of the so-called "hicks" (i.e they just sound different and go to church on Sundays--otherwise they're the same), but if you don't offer any more of an explanation for your base characterization other than that he's from the South--since you're from the same place, it looks like you just called yourself a hick! Thanks--just made my day! LOL

  • OMG the first openly wise latina!

    In my lifetime...

  • lmao. cute.

  • She is being grilled for her comment over and over again, even though she has already explained herself. I understand what she is saying: yes, ideally all judges should not have any bias, but in reality the life experiences do influence humans of their preferences.

  • Who cares? Google Niels Harrit or visit my page. There is something more important than Sotomayor to learn about!

  • omg, someone get this woman a gatorade...she's gonna need it backpeddling that hard. This hearing just shows that she stated her real feelings before she was nominated and now shes jsut saying whatever will get her on the bench

  • We have 5 fascists on the Supreme Court and you all know who they are. Sotomayor will not change that majority. So everyone calm down!!!

  • mikehunt626--

    ...and four communists--of which she will be one....

    (Actually the other 5 are strict constructionists, not fascits (i.e. "my kinda justices.")

  • Bla,Bla,Bla I say this but really mean that and people take it out of context Bla Bla hold on let me contradict my self oh ya let me put it this way to get around the question and put it in a way that still means the same but sounds different..

  • senator sessions is a real southern hick.

    What an embarassment to our country he is!

  • leontyne--

    Wow, what a reasoned analysis coming from a 43-year-old no less. Care to explain your base accusation in terms other than the Senator's place of origin? Sounds like the liberal is being stereotypical/prejudicial here. But then again, there's nothing more "fair game" than southern white males now, is there?

  • Wow, what an embarrassment you are. Insulting someone and not looking at the fucking big picture. Seriously? The country is a big shitstorm already that's losing major corporations, like Microsoft, to taxes that will eventually be spent of shit.

  • a hick? what kind of racist shit is that? Trust me kids, all this reverse discrimination is eventually going to create a backlash among the white people of this country. Keep up your racist shit and you're going to regret it

  • Sessions is a racist. He was denied a judgeship back in '86 for calling a white lawyer a "disgrace to his race" because that lawyer represented black clients. He also pointed out to Judge Sotomayor that she voted against Judge Cabranes in the New Haven case. He said that she didn't vote like Cabranes, "he is also of Puerto Rican descent". What did that have to do with anything? Just because they're both Hispanic, does that mean she's supposed to vote exactly like he does? That's a racist comment

  • she blinks pretty damn fast

    lmao

  • Liar liar pants on fire Ms Sotomayor. LOL
