[img]1|left|||no_popup[/img]Since President Obama has such stern respect for political correctness that he only rises from the left side of the bed, squishy-thinking Sonia Sotomayor looks like a cinch to be his nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court any edition.
It is only incidental that she is a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York. The neon factors that could shove this female version of Joe Biden over the finish line is that she is Hispanic and a woman.
As far as Mr. Obama and his hapless personnel-selection staff are concerned, Ms. Sotomayor could deliver garbage or sell tickets to the Bijou.
Her potential selection is the adult corollary to the thousands of black and Hispanic “students” who force-fed a farce of an education on university campuses s that schools can brag they have a diverse population.
When one of the leading liberal magazines of the day, The New Republic, savages this doll baby only hours after her name surfaces, you can wager that Squishy Sonia is a serious contender for Jackass of the Year.
Legal affairs writer Jeffrey Rosen characterized this boobette as stupid and obnoxious. That is from the left-wing, not from a conservative.
Applying Her Own Sword
Says Mr. Rosen of his research:
“The most consistent concern was that Sotomayor, although an able lawyer, was ‘not that smart and kind of a bully on the bench,’ as one former Second Circuit clerk for another judge put it. ‘She has an inflated opinion of herself, and is domineering during oral arguments, but her questions aren't penetrating and don't get to the heart of the issue.’”
Being a starchly politically correct leftist who swoons over being known as a “woman of color,” who pities the poor and all non-whites twice an hour, and cheers louder than most lefties for the radical Mexican-centric group La Raza, a fulltime babysitter may be needed to ride shotgun over Squishy Sonia.
Here is an insight into her thinking from a speech for La Raza seven years ago in broadminded Berkeley:
“America has a deeply confused image of itself that is in perpetual tension. We are nation that takes pride in our ethnic diversity, recognizing its importance in shaping our society and in adding richness to its existence. Yet, we simultaneously insist that we can and must function and live in a race and color-blind way that ignore these very differences that in other contexts we laud…Many of us struggle with this tension and attempt to maintain and promote our cultural and ethnic identities in a society that is often ambivalent about how to deal with differences.”
Those anti-self-effacing words could have been written by Mr. Obama.
‘Don’t You Think I Am Exceptional?’
Further, how would you like to be standing before a loud-mouthed I Am Woman judge who also brayed the following nonsense:
“I accept that our experiences as women and people of color affect our decisions. The aspiration to impartiality is just that -—it’s an aspiration because it denies the fact that we are by our experiences making different choices than others.”
In different words, being Hispanic and female, the judge boasts that she is incapable of drawing an objective breath.
My golly Ned, I’ll bet that there isn’t anyone anywhere more qualified than Betty Boobette.
With Mr. Obama in the White House, an empty qualifications bucket , as you know by now, is not an impediment to a lofty appointment.
She has a mouth on her that would remind you of a dumb version of Ann Coulter.
One of President Bush’s nominees was (deservedly) laughed off the stage before she finished polishing her housewifely knees, and sensible people hope the same fate awaits this pathetic Puerto Rican bigot.
As malleable as hot butter, all Mr. Obama needs to know is that she is a woman and brings a Spanish-sounding name. Don’t you love how left-wingers reason? I believe the President’s reported reaction was, “Whoopee.”
