Judge Sotomayor is a barry clone. She goes through intermediaries (who can claim to have “misheard” or “misunderstood) instead of going on the record. She still refuses to address her “racist comments” head on and it appears Sen Dianne Feinstein has volunteered (been chosen) to be the mouthpiece.
JUDGE SOTOMAYOR:
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. Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging.
CNN: Sen Dianne Feinstein for Judge Sotomayor:
“She said, ‘Obviously it was a poor choice of words if you read on and read the rest of my speech you wouldn’t be concerned with it but it was a poor choice of words.”
And Sen Feinstein is putting out the good word on abortion as well. Though I’m not clear on what Feinstein is intimating.
Feinstein, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, added that she and Sotomayor “generally” discussed the issue of abortion, and that the judge believes strongly in legal precedent.
“I believe she has a real respect for precedent and … if that is really true then I will agree with her and I believe it is,” the senator said.
That makes me believe she is pro0life but as far as the law will abide by precedent. Gibbs was pushing the same word the other day: “strict adherence to precedent” So he knows her stand already.
Wasn’t one of barry’s promises to only pick a Justice who believes in Roe v Wade aka a woman’s right to choose?
