		<description>Not in support of Sotomayor&#039;s confirmation to the Supreme Court !!!!

Here’s why and Related Topics:
Calls Grow for Bush’s then Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to Quit . Now this same person, Alberto Gonzales, tells America that choosing Sotomayor is in America’s best interest. And Sotomayor stated her interpretation of American laws and Judicial system is better simply because she is a LATINA. This is a racist statement.

Papers suggest Gonzales lied over sacking of judges - Republicans fear then president Bush would lose the ability to lead.

The widening revolt makes the then attorney general, Alberto Gonzales, a growing liability for Mr Bush, who is struggling to hold the line on his policies from Iraq to climate change. Mr Gonzales’s position grew even more precarious by weeks’ end
 when it emerged that he had, despite earlier denials, been involved in a controversial decision to sack eight federal prosecutors. Some 280 pages of documents released by the administration suggest Mr Gonzales had attended a meeting to discuss sacking the prosecutors 10 days before they were dismissed. The attorney general had said he saw no memos and attended no meetings on the matter. Bush used his weekly radio address on Saturday to restate his confidence in Mr Gonzales, that disclosure makes such loyalty extremely costly. You cannot have the nation’s chief law enforcement officer with a cloud hanging over his credibility,” Chuck Hagel, a Republican senator from Nebraska, told ABC television. 

The sackings have been condemned as an attempt to politicize the judiciary.

Additionally, I heard 2-latin individuals working with a host of non-latin speaking Americans begin excluding the Americans out of the conversation by speaking in their native tongue, then turn and ask the Americans questions in English, and again excluded the Americans by speaking spanish. “The Americans on, USA soil, just stood there looking stupid.” The latin individuals’ behavior was rude, insensitive, smirking, and exploits the kindness of all Americans with roots going back hundreds of years here 
in the U.S.A.

As always, as soon a latin numbers rise and they have access to more power, they will chase you off your job. And since Sotomayor is so great at interpreting American law why don’t she go to Mexico and help mexicans with that extremely horrendous drug problem in mexico  and put a stop to illegal immigration into the U.S.A. (“you know             
being an American and all ).  Do You Think They Would Select Her in Mexico as Their Top Judge?  I know Mexican’s in Mexico would not pick you American.</description>

		<description>Sotomayer is a perfect choice for Chairman Obama. What more would you expect from a naïve communtity agitator who despises the history and heritage of this great nation? I pray that all the fools who voted for Chairman Obama  see the folly of his lack of knowledge of history. Anybody that sits in Jerkamiah Wright&#039;s cursed congregation for twenty years; it is predictable that the simpleton would nominate such a turd like Sotomayer.</description>

		<description>Sotomayer is a racist. This beastly woman has NO business being honored with a Supreme Court appointment. I question her allegience to the Constitution and I believe she subcribes to the disgusting group La Raza.</description>

		<description>Some of the posts name calling Republicans &quot;racist&quot; instead of honestly looking at Sotomayor&#039;s comments and dealing with her bigoted racism are hilarious!  No wonder Obama got elected!  Too bad there are no qualifications whatosever to vote.</description>

		<description>Many of the clueless on this blog won&#039;t examine the &quot;decisions&quot; that were overturned. They are the same ones screaming for facts. She is the embodiment of the &quot;New Racism&quot; plaguing this country.</description>

		<description>If she&#039;s so &quot;wise&quot; it might be better if she let others toot her horn.  And, by the way, here&#039;s a clue, wisdom doesn&#039;t spring forth from one&#039;s hormones and gender or the richness of her experience as a&quot;latina&quot;.  She&#039;s a dope who has to keep reminding people how wise she is and to deflect analysis of that statement, she couples it to her gender and ethnicity making the statement bulletproof.  Anyone challenging it is a racist or a sexist.  How clever can you get.  Obama&#039;s perfect nominee.</description>

		<description>Ok, I am a &quot;Latino&quot; and I think that her comments were at the very least unwise. Not everyone is an open book, a lot of people keep their private toughts to themselves yet some (as she did) open it up. I believe she stated what is in her heart and mind, you don&#039;t just blurt out something like that. She also shouldn&#039;t have made those other statments while being taped, that wasn&#039;t smart. However, it was revealing. I believe in this case, what you see and what you&#039;ve heard is what you&#039;ll get. It won&#039;t matter either way because she will get confirmed, but anyone who doesn&#039;t believe that she spoke her mind is being intellectually dishonest with themselves. Yes she has a lot of accomplishments but the law was not meant to be interpreted by emphaty.</description>

		<description>Reaganite, you are preaching to the choir. They are many fun facts surrounding the Civil War period of the USA/CSA. How did it ever become the prevailing logic to believe the worst american war was fought about slavery. It was fought over states rights.

I believe California has the right to spend themselves into financial ruin, I just dont want to pay for it.

But I digress.
My point is simply that a Latino judge will have preference in any decision where racialism is concerned. Anyone will favor their race. It is to what extent is acceptable. In the 1950&#039;s the US did not confront these issues. It was then a county which many of the worlds people wanted to be. If those mean old white guys would only give up some ground. They have. There is much integration in California and they have the worlds seventh largest economy. What a great experiment. Now we are going to have to send federal money (money from everyone) to allow the larges welfare experiment to continue.
I know, it is because there is not the same opportunity there as there was in the days of Regan or the California gold rush. The Latinos of California need your help as they have proven the wise decisions of Latinos.
Now jump on me for being racist, but then explain why the once greatest growth state in the US is broke. Please explain how fiscal conservatism is causing this.
Hell, while you are at please explain how NAFTA and CAFTA can improve US wealth for the middle class. CRA is responsible for people owning houses they cannot afford. Explain this one to me as well. Both Democrats and Republicans supported these causes.</description>

		<description>Ed, to add to what you started with, most slaves taken from Africa were sold to the Europeans by other Africans. Also, there were many FREE blacks who fought for the south in the civil war. Fun facts.

Anyway, while there is some truth to the comment that it is impossible to be completely impartial, which is why there are nine justices and not just one, there is a difference between slight biases guiding your views and overt philosophy that one race or gender is better than another. The latter case fits Sotomayer.</description>

		<description>@Rich. Have you ever researched how many black Americans were slave owners? Does not make it right, but to suggest it is only the white man who supported slavery is simply a false statement.

There were many in this country and still a greater number in other countries.

The argument is not about past race relations, it is about current appointment to the Supreme Court. If one says the rights of their heritage is not more import than the rights of other, I simply do not believe them. This is the same as saying someone family is just as important as their own. Is this racialism? It could be considered as such I suppose. If I wish to care for those of similar background over those who as not of the same as me, does this make me a racist?

To think that Sotomoyer would look out for others outside of her personal background just the same as she would for those of her heritage is the same as saying she doesn&#039;t feel her heritage is important. It is not possible to be completely impartial.

The &quot;white Men&quot; how drafted the constitution were partial to their race and heritage and their work created a a great country. So great that lots of want to belong, and should have the opportunity.

So we will continue to learn and wonder if conforming to the constitution makes us American or changing it makes us American. How much can we change until we are no longer what we wish we were.</description>

		<description>Thogwummpy, great post, but don&#039;t accord libs their delusional self-given title of &quot;progressive&quot;. It&#039;s a meaningless word they use to make their views sound better and more justifiable.</description>
