Graham endorses Sotomayor

I heard the statement below quoted on the radio on my way home from work today. I had to google it to make sure I heard it right:LA replies:
Every American should be proud of someone who has spent her life insisting that Hispanics have a right to proportional representation in every field and profession whether they’ve qualified for it or not? A person who boasts of being an “affirmative action baby”? This is the model for American women, and especially for Hispanic women?LA writes:
Note: The way James spelled Graham’s first name is not a mistake, his name is spelled Lindsey. Here is his Senate page. A. Zarkov writes:
While I find Graham’s statement about Sotomayor ridiculous and offensive, there is a bright side to her appointment. She will weaken the liberal wing of the court as Scalia, Roberts, and Alito will run rings around her in conference. Compared to the other possible Obama nominees, she’s an intellectual lightweight and less radical. I hope this means the conservative wing will be better able to influence Kennedy to vote with them. Obviously Kennedy will be pivotal in deciding the close cases coming in the near future. Posted by Lawrence Auster at July 28, 2009 10:34 PM | Send Email entry |
