Sotomayor nomination

Complaining? heck that was simple discussion - nah, not at all. I don't think so anyway. Maybe Rushbo will say something stupid (how typical) and rile up a few radicals on either or both sides - thats about it though.
All in all she seems like an equal replacement ideologically speaking. It will keep the court about where it was. Its not like a die-hard conservative is leaving and a hardcore liberal is replacing them - ya know?

Oh yea. He has already said, again, he hopes Obama fails, and he hopes this nomination fails. He is a tool.

She votes with republicans 95% of the time, according to what I heard last night on the news. Granted it is a NY court, still... She is a moderate, not a liberal. I wish he had selected someone more liberal, because the court is swayed far more to the right than the left. It needs to balance out. Hopefully she will turn out to be like Souter. You never can tell though.

About Thomas, there was a huge controversy there because he was accused of sexual harrassment, and I'm still not convinced he was completely innocent.
