Considering she and Barry's ages, I imagine affirmative action is a big thing here. Sad considering how the left raked Justice Thomas over the coals.
And...not that it matters... but Thomas' "life story" puts hers to shame.
Oh...and all you lefties who want her on the court because she is a woman! I thought there was no dif in the sexes?
What a pile of crap you spew.
What's so sad, we on the left judged Thomas by the content of his character and we found him to be quite a character.
As for wanting her on the bench... yeah, we unapologetically like that affirmative action thing, sort of makes the Court look like the country where half the population happens to be women. With regards to no dif in the sexes, that is precisely why her nomination is important. For too long women have been considered inferior, so consider this justice as bring a little justice to the Justices.
PS - as if you conservatives don't like your forays into affirmative action, does Sandra Day O'Connor ring a bell?

She has been there and knows what it is like to work for a living and to be poor. She will be a strong voice for all of us!

Well I didn't go to all those fancy schools but I KNOW THAT JUDGES DON'T MAKE POLICY! She is DUMB if she does not know that! You know each of the three bodies of the federal government is seperate but equal. It's what we call checks and balances.
"Sandra Day O'Connor took her seat today as the 102d Justice and the first woman to serve on the United States Supreme Court. President Reagan, who fulfilled a campaign promise to name a woman to the Court by nominating the 51-year-old Arizona judge, attended the brief ceremony in ...
Damn, you beat me to it... Watching her acceptance speech right now on NBC. I can imagine the neoCONS now, got to love it. Imagine that another minority on the Bench. She grew up from a less privelaged life in the Projects in the Bronx. And she appears that she would be for the less fortunate as well. Great choice, a minority plus a hispanic!
A sad day for a hispanic like me, but I expected as much from BO...
He did a lot of other idiot things also. So damn what? We already knew he was liberal light.
