[QUOTE="Jones, post: 540781, member: 4805"] Eh, most of this stuff is pretty ridiculous. Calling someone who graduated Summa cu-m Laude and at the top of her class from Princeton Law school "unintelligent"....if any of the folks making that comment actually had to discuss case law with Sotomayor in a public forum they would be in way over their heads in a hurry and probably wind up looking bad and feeling embarrased (assuming they're capable of that emotion) Tom Goldstein over at SCOTUS blog has gone over her [URL="http://www.scotusblog.com/wp/judge-sotomayor-and-race-results-from-the-full-data-set/"][COLOR=Blue][U]record in discrimination cases[/U][/COLOR][/URL] and the charge of racism doesn't hold up. In one notable case she dissented from the majority in [I]favor[/I] of a white bigot. I've disagreed with plenty of sumpreme court decisons, I'm sure that won't change. My biggest concern is that this will make 6 catholics on the court. Disturbing trend. [/QUOTE]
