"I am not a champion of lost causes, but of causes not yet won."
Ooh, so scary!
I think more people should be judged by what they have written or is written in their yearbooks. Seems like the only rational way to go.

Bill, I won my fair share of high school debate tournaments (although I preferred extemp). Obviously the lessons didn't sink in very deep for you.

R and P REFUSE TO SEE whats in front of them...HISTORY and said words Frame A PERSON THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES.
a PERSON OF HER POSITION should have to explain why she wrote that.
REST OF THE COMMON FODDER DONT NEED TO EXPLAIN.
we are not ruling over any body.
Beam yourselves to the land of OZ..follow the yellow brick road..

The First cannon of judicial ethics says:
A JUDGE SHALL UPHOLD THE INDEPENDENCE AND INTEGRITY OF THE JUDICIARY, SHALL PERFORM THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE IMPARTIALLY, AND SHALL AVOID IMPROPRIETY AND THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY IN ALL OF THE JUDGE’S ACTIVITIES . RULE 1.01: PROMOTING CONFIDENCE IN THE JUDICIARY A judge shall act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the independence,* integrity,* and impartiality* of the judiciary..
mm..lets see.
She went to law school. She became a judge. quotes a socialist who promoted the idea of legislating from the bench..
Gee r...where did I go wrong?

a better quote that I would have used...same guy..
"To us Americans much has been given; of us much is required. With all our faults and mistakes, it is our strength in support of the freedom our forefathers loved which has saved mankind from subjection to totalitarian power."
"If you want a symbolic gesture, don't burn the flag, wash it."
Norman Thomas.

Gee.. a Monday morning quarter back ..who says.. ... Monday morning?? If you bothered to read the actual article I referenced, you would've seen the quote was from 2001. Do you even bother to engage your brain before speaking?

On the same note, her recent decision in Connecticut (2-1 on a 3 judge panel with the dissent coming from a latino male judge), to throw out a firefighter hiring test because none of the top candidates were black helps us put this in different context. Being Latino and female makes her a better judge, so does she believe it also makes her a better firefighter (even if the test suggests otherwise)? What else are minorities better at? And if indeed minorities are better at most things simply by virtue of being minorities then the question has to be asked "Ms. Sotomayor, how do you reconcile those views with accusations that you are a racist?" Whatever you think of Newt Gingrich, he's 100% right in saying that if the statement were reversed, that a judge who believed being a white male allowed him to make "better" decisions than a minority would be retired in a hurry. Actually they didn't vote to throw the test out technically, also, it was a promotions test not a hiring test. I believe the city decided to review and redesign the the test. A white firefighter brought a lawsuit against the action, which the 3 judge panel (including Sotomayor) threw out.
