I'll give Obama credit where credit is due - great choice. First hispanic to the SC. Well qualified. Not a bible banger.

Of course, the senators from Alabama, as one blogger mentioned over at HuffPost, will want to know if she can play the banjo.

I have been listening to the right wing shows this morning. They are going nuts. By all accounts she is not far left and is more of a centrist, but that is not good enough for them. They want 2 things, for her to state her abortion views and her views on gay marriage. Gee what is new. Some of even suggested she is not old enough. Ummm, and Judge Roberts?

I don't know why the right is complaining; the NYT article describes her as a centrist. Has anyone scrutinized her decisions? She is definitely not going to be the most leftist on the SC which will have a majority Catholic makeup.

the baseball strike decision was actually a huge victory for labor, and it endeared judge sotomayor to most baseball fans, because her ruling literally saved the season. not that i care about baseball, but the fact that she ruled against the owners and for labor is a good thing

Well, there you go. She was inspired to become a judge by an episode of Perry Mason. Of course the character of Perry Mason was played by the avowed homosexual Raymond Burr. If that doesn't disqualify her, nothing does.

who is she, i've heard the canned sound bite. Is she divorced, homosexual, is her daughter pregnant by some guy from alaska ? what does she do on her off time ? I've searched the web and find NOTHING.
