re: Sotomayor chosen as SC nominee (academic discussion)

Well first they could have done their homework but I suspect this is just the usual we will see as the msm starts the drumbeat; she will NOT be the first Hispanic on the SC if confirmed.

I think her decision ala the Ricci decision is off, way off. But I won’t conclude my opinion and stance based on one decision, that’s unfair. I will do some homework and come to an informed opinion.

Some surface statements caught my attention-

This-

praising her as "an inspiring woman" with both the intellect and compassion to interpret the Constitution wisely.

She has never forgotten where she began," said Obama, who praised Sotomayor for her "wisdom accumulated from an inspiring life's journey."

Uhm so? Is this a qualifier for service? But thats just Barry being Barry I guess....

As far as- Sotomayor is a self-described "Newyorkrican"...so I guess Scalia can now be the ‘Jersey Sicilian Vesper’.
