I agree, Max. I'm hoping she turns out to be Obama's Earl Warren. We could use some social and judicial progress for a change.

I'm not at all sure that Roberts, Alito, Scalia and Thomas wouldn't return us to the original Constitution and first ten amemdments if they had their druthers. Nor am I sure that they really want to retain some of the ten of the Bill of Rights. However, I think Thomas has some restraint there, he doesn't want his vote to only count as three-fifths of one vote, constitution originalist or not.

Thanks Dustin....

Us liberals need to do everything we can to make this court liberal. We really need Sotomeyer appointed to the court. No more blind justice, no more rulings based on the facts. We need a perspective of ethical justce..pay back the man for what he did to us all these years...but still have our liberal balance.

Whoo hoo...we are going to take over the world.

The Liberal POS.

Dusty McD knows Judge Sotomayor how? He has argued how many cases before her at the 2nd Circuit? Me thinks Dusty heard there were going to be cameras in the hearing room.

You already have it. POG, with Roberts, Alito, Scalia and Thomas adamantly activist at the core Kennedy swings your way plenty. You don't need another Bork.

Wait until all those good yellow dog dems hear about Satamoyors treatment of those firefighters. Dusty Mac D's stock will go way down. But he and his Daddy did try to sue Remington Arms over the Jonesboro shootings. Dusty is part of the blame someone else crowd.

Gee, Ameiurus nebulosus Eater,

This sound like just your sort of Supreme. . . .Nominated by his own Republican Party, was elected Attorney General of the State of California in 1938. As Attorney General, he was most remembered for his support of Japanese internment, which was the policy of placing Japanese Americans in internment camps during World War II. Running as a Republican, he was elected Governor of California on November 3, 1942 and re-elected 1946 and 1950.

He ran for Vice President of the United States in 1948 on the Republican ticket with Thomas Dewey. In 1952 he stood as a "favorite son" candidate of California for the Republican nomination for President, but withdrew in support of Eisenhower.

In 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who wanted a conservative justice and commented that "he represents the kind of political, economic, and social thinking that I believe we need on the Supreme Court.... He has a national name for integrity, uprightness, and courage that, again, I believe we need on the Court" appointed him Chief Justice of the United States.

Dusty filed a brief in support of Sotomayor's decision in Ricci, Harry. He felt--as do a lot of other people--that there was plenty of precedent in support of discarding the tests, and the court's conservative majority was disregarding it...acting as an "activist bench," if you will
