Supreme Court Nominee Sotomayor

[gales0678]

what's funny here is President Bush nominated Miguel Estrada to the supreme court - i believe he was the 1st hispanic nominated for the highest judical office in the land

dems absoultley de-railed him and treated him with a total lack of respect , all because he was there worst nightmare - a hispanic who actually had conservative views , the media is a total joke - remember the ny times has to pay loan shark fees to stay in business folks

stand corrected folks he was nominated for the dc court of appeals , not the supreme court (but basically the 2nd highest court in the land)

But there was a little more of a solid paper trail that could be attacked than one quote that has been analyzed to death..

Let's talk about Clarence Thomas....forget about pubic hairs and sexual innuendos..hey..it's just the "office"..this man NEVER did sh*t in his life other than be a conservative black man who, ironically, got where he was because of Democratic policies. He by far is the dumbest judge...even traffic court..that I have ever seen. At least Scalia can justify his personal beliefs and judgements by citing the constitution like Oral Roberts does the Bible. That's what makes him brilliant...otherwise he's just Ann Coulter with a beer belly.

Oddly enough it is fairly evident that Scalia
really does not respect Thomas, even though
these two have probably voted the same way
more times than any two judges currently on the
court.

wish I knew how to look that up.
Stevens and Ginsberg are probably close also.

so tell me why he shouldn't have gotten the position on the DC court Bob?

give me some hard facts .whyshouldn't i beleive that Miguel was turned down because a republican president was appointing a conservative hispanic

here we have someone that is a minority , and then senate democratc invoke cloture to not even allow and up and down vote on this historic nomination of a hispanic immigrant from Hondorus ---- if it was the other way around we all know what the story would have been in the papers

but the fact is cloture was used only 1 time ever in the history of this country to stop a nominee from getting an up and down vote

Dick Durbin had his hands all over this one
