Article: "Obama tries to deflect criticism from Sotomayor"

The link: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_obama_sotomayor

" "I'm sure she would have restated it," Obama flatly told NBC News, without indicating how he knew that. "

Ok ... how can you be so sure Mr Obamessiah? You're telepathic now? Of course, now that he's said this, it won't be long before she stands somewhere and states that her choice of words was "poor" and that she "regrets" she said them.

What did she say? " She said in 2001: "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life." The remark was in the context her saying that "our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging." "

In other words - racial identity?

" The quote in question from Sotomayor has emerged as a rallying call for conservative critics who fear she will offer opinions from the bench based less on the rule of law and more on her life experience, ethnicity and gender. That issue is likely to play a central role in her Senate confirmation process. "

No kidding. I think she herself has said it. "...wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences..." And as that article says "...who fear she will offer opinions from the bench based less on the rule of law and more on her life experience, ethnicity and gender." (emphasis added)

Of course, we're not supposed to notice that the American Bar Association lists Ms Sotomayor as a member of the National Council of La Raza (Literally "The Race")!!!!

A member of La Raza?!?!? The link: http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=99420

Now many people are going to say "Oh, this is World Net Daily and they're fill of shit."

Go to the American Bar Association's site and read for yourself: http://www.abanet.org/publiced/hispanic_s.html

" She is a member of the American Bar Association, the New York Women’s Bar Association, the Puerto Rican Bar Association, the Hispanic National Bar Association, the Association of Judges of Hispanic Heritage, and the National Council of La Raza. She has received many honors including, most recently, an award from the National Association of Women Lawyers. " (emphasis added)

Tell me, will she advance La Raza's goals from the High Court?
