Ans so it begins, the descent and perversion of the Supreme Court into an activist collection of hard-left liberals, who'll no doubt carve Obama's radical-left political policy into the national stone regardless of constitutionality. Here's some of the empathetic idiocy to which we can look forward...Judge Sotomayor questioned the famous notion — often invoked by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her retired Supreme Court colleague, Sandra Day O’Connor — that a wise old man and a wise old woman would reach the same conclusion when deciding cases.
“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life,”
Her remarks, at the annual Judge Mario G. Olmos Law and Cultural Diversity Lecture at the University of California, Berkeley, were not the only instance in which she has publicly described her view of judging in terms that could provoke sharp questioning in a confirmation hearing.
This month, for example, a video surfaced of Judge Sotomayor asserting in 2005 that a “court of appeals is where policy is made.” She then immediately adds: “And I know — I know this is on tape, and I should never say that because we don’t make law. I know. O.K. I know. I’m not promoting it. I’m not advocating it. I’m — you know.”
The law respects no man because of his race, life station, economic status, life experiences, and expecially not because of how sorry the judge may feel for him. The Constitution is the law. It should be blind to arbitrary qualifications and favor neither party except as to their legal argument. Look for Obama's appointments to essentially radicalize the court in a far-left direction the same way that Obama, Pelosi, and Reid are radicalizing the legislative and executive branches.
