Sotomayor skeptics

Some right wingers are pressing hard on the "racist" charge against Obama's Supreme Court nominee for one single comment in a speech she made several years ago. But apparently some liberal groups are now questioning her left wing bona fides ..... Sounds to me like Obama may have gotten this one right - she's somewhere in the middle (left of middle, I'm sure) of the extreme views that get all the headlines

Let's hope she is a pro life Catholic.

I hate the fact that the liberal media is making such a big deal about her race. Did they say anything when Bush elected a latino? Nope.

If Obama wants her, it's because she believes in killing babies and believes that the second amendment only applies to "Militias". Count on it.

I bet it is because he believes that she is the right person for the job!

I too happen to agree that a woman has the right to choose! And until you walk a mile in the shoes of those women that make that choice...you don't have the right to critize it...

So the father of the child has no right to choose whether his baby lives or dies, and you agree with that?

And it is militias. Note how it is punctuated.

We all know how it would end up...dad talks her out of it and the mom is the one that takes the responsibility!

The puntuation is not a pause. If it were used that way ANYWHERE ELSE in the Constitution, you might have a case, but it isn't. The Supreme Court just went on record saying it is an individual right.

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

It doesn't say the right of the MILITIA to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, it says the right of the PEOPLE to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. I think the framers knew what they were saying. Yeah, they could have been a little more clear, but then again they didn't have liberal whiners trying to twist their words around back then.

More girl babies are tortured/murdered via abortion than boy babies.

More black babies are tortured/murdered via abortion than other colors.

Gee, you're not the least bit sexist, are you! I know plenty of very good fathers who did not abandon their girlfriend or child when they found out they were going to be a daddy before they had planned. I happen to be one of them. And, there are just as many worthless women who run from responsibility (via abortion) as there are men (via the shoeleather express). Maybe if that option were taken away in all but the extreme cases (rape, incest, retardation), then people would have to grow up and FACE their responsibilities instead of taking the easy way out. Like they did in the old days. Many of us would not even be here if abortions were as easy to come by, and as vigorously defended by people like yourself as they are now days. I am thankful that my teenage mother chose to put me up for adoption instead of killing me.

hmmm...Dr. Tiller is killed by someone claiming to be pro-life??? It is sad that this man died because he was doing something that was LEGAL! I am keeping his family in my thoughts and prayers...such a sad time for all!

That poor poor Dr Tiller. For some nut to shoot such an innocent, fun loving, democrat is beyond words. Everyone knows that Tiller was just about helping his fellow man.

Whatever.

Thanks poster at 9:35...You proved my point!!! Many pro-life advocates are saying what a tragedy this is and they do not promote violence...Well they may not promote it but you all are happy with the outcome! That makes me sick! You are so for LIFE that you KILL to make a point? And what exactly does the democrat statement mean?

What kind of "Church" would allow Tiller entry in the first place?

The same kind of church that would let you in.

I wouldn't go to church if you paid me. Too many hypocrites like you in them.

What does it mean when someone is responding to an anonymous poster with a statement: Too many hypocrits like you."

How can someone even direct such a comment. Doesn't it at least take knowing who you are calling a hypocrit for it to matter. If you don't know who someone is and you label them a hypocrit, what does that even mean?

Why would one offer such a comment. My goodness, how do you have an argument with no one? Do you even consider that each anonymous post comes from a different person. Does that mean everyone is a hypocrit or just the people you don't know?

Then when you think of all the people you don't know (billions of them) wow!! Are you really qualified to declare them all hypocrits. Or did you just mean the one person whose identity you don't know?

I think we can conclude that was a very childish means-spirited thing to say and it had no purpose because you didn't even say it to anyone in partiicular.

Maybe a week of intense classes in anger management would do you a world of good. Then you might find it within yourself to go to church and apologize for insulting the millions of people you don't know but still offended.

Wow, that was a long winded way to say one thing. I was actually saying that nearly everyone who goes to church is a hypocrite.

Happy now?

If not, feel free to write another book on the subject.
