When will Judge Sotomayor speak re: her “poor choice of words”?

June 2, 2009

WH Press Briefing

MR GIBBS: Yes, sir.

Q Robert, did Judge Sotomayor consent to the statements by the President and you that she would now use different words in that Latina white male statement that has been out there?

MR. GIBBS: Again, I think the basis for what I said and the basis for what the President said were the result of conversations that had been had with the Justice — with the Judge, excuse me — and members of the team working on the confirmation.

Q Is there a possibility she would issue a statement to that effect?

MR. GIBBS: Well, I assume that she’ll likely get this today, maybe in her meetings, and I think she’ll have a chance to talk to senators about that. And I have no doubt that the working press will get good readouts from their senators.

No, as yet she hasn’t. Judge Sotomayor is a barry clone, which makes one wonder what it is she is hiding. Something that wasn’t important for her other confirmations but would potentially cause her trouble as a Justice. No idea.

barry says he doesn’t know her views on abortion. How much do they really expect The American People to believe. Well, I guess they’ve bought everything so far. It’s what he doesn’t say that’s more than what he does say. By saying that he doesn’t know – how considered could his choice have been since that was the major issue on his stumps? Since that was a/the major Hillary Clinton women crossed over. It argues that she was just a big and little check box – and just another “first. I am convinced she is pro-life because Gibbs and barry make a point of mentioning that she believes strongly in precedence and “strict adherence to precedence”.

Whatever happens, his panderment is on record. If she is pro-life it’s a checkbox for across the aisle. And if he is truly diabolical – he could have picked her hoping she would one day overturn Roe v Wade and it would be out of his hands.

This is the June 2nd press conference. On the 3rd, Sen Dianne Feinstein, evidently the chosen one’s chosen one – came out with a statement that “obviously it was a poor choice of words”. If it were that obvious, she would have admitted to it. She hasn’t.

So no statement except from barry, Gibbs and Sen Feinstein that it was a “poor choice of words”. None of it counts because they didn’t say the words.
