  • Cliner97,

    Yes, in speeches she has HIGHLIGHTED her race ("La Raza") as a major competency factor--that somehow, being a Latina gives her special wisdom that others can't possess. Frankly, I do not care what her race & gender are. I want someone who was SUPERB in law school without affirmative action crutches, and who is a SUPERB constitutional scholar who knows that it is NOT THE SUPREME COURT'S JOB to make law. There is a huge groundswell growing against this affirmative action appointee.

  • What the fuck does a persons race have to do with their qualifications? Racial PRIDE is destructive when that pride overrides value judgements and so-called oppressed minorities are well on their way to acting like fucking Nazi's when it comes to racial pride. Fuck this venal bitch.

  • She could have been Mayor of her hometown if this had fallen through. Then she would have been Mayor Sotomayor.

  • I support Sotymayer. B/C she will support gay men who get poo-poo on their pee pee from sticking it where another man makes his doo-doo

  • I am a latino and whatever the reason in this choise is a big gain for our community

  • Even though I'm hispanic, I have to agree with you on this point

  • horrible choice only selected because shes latina and a female

  • I have been learning about her. She is Latina, intelligent, & likable. But she is also a closet Socialist, judicial activist, reverse-racist, affirmative-action hustler. If she is approved, this will greatly increase Obama's power. Her public statements (in speeches, etc.) are much more revealing than her written opinions. In a way, we can thank the Bush/Cheney idiots for this, since they over-extended the US & started a disastrous war that handed over the election to the Demo-Marxists. Shame!
