Sotomayor/Obama Rant

We shouldn't elect somebody based on their biography. Would you want your surgeon to be somebody who was hired based on their biography or their ability? Sotomayor is playing the Latina card. And Obama, who was also elected based on his biography, loves to use it.

Obama's SC Nominee

Today, Obama announced that he has nominated Judge Sonia Sotomayor as a Supreme Court Justice to fill in sitting Justice David Souter's shoes. I don't know much about her, so I'll have to do some investigating. Hopefully, she is a Thurgood Marshall or a Bill Brennan, probably not though. Well, we'll see if the Senate approves of her.
