Outside Groups Sound Siren on Sotomayor

Republican senators are speaking in cautious but measured tones about Sotomayor’s qualifications and fitness for the court while Democrats join the White House in singing her praises. But the outside organizations that have a major stake in a high-court fight are taking up warring positions. Conservative groups brand her an activist who would impose her own views and ethnic and gender biases on her interpretation of the law and the Constitution.

Sotomayor reversed again

Staffers on the Judiciary panel, which will run hearings on Sotomayor’s nomination, huddled researching her record and released a detailed, 10-page questionnaire the judge will have to answer in advance of the public session she will undergo with senators. Democratic aides on the panel planned to meet Thursday with Cynthia Hogan, Vice President Joe Biden’s counsel, to plot strategy. The questionnaire asks Sotomayor to divulge personal, financial and employment information and to provide copies of all her writings, speeches, interviews and opinions. She also has to list any potential conflicts of interest and describe how she would resolve them and reveal details about her nomination, including whether she was asked by anyone how she would rule on any potential Supreme Court case or issue and how she responded.More News

    This woman has been reversed countless times because she refuses to follow the law; instead imposing her PERSONAL views on the rest of us. It’s time for a change. It’s time to stop speaking in “hushed tones”. In short, it’s time to “come home”…

    Time is running out on us, I’m afraid.

    The “minorities” will want someone on the bench that will screw Whites at every opportunity to deny justice while giving minorities rights superior to Whites.

    She is representative of the Supreme court of the future. In 30 years all Supreme Court Judges will be cut from her cloth.

    Whites have no future under the present government.
