| Pop Culture Moments by Mo: I regret listening to Sotomayor regret her comments Posted: 05 Aug 2009 02:53 PM PDT
During her confirmation hearing, Judge Sonia Sotomayor didn’t do much in my opinion. I think that frustrated the senators at her confirmation. All she said repeatedly was that she regretted her comment that a Latina lady would’ve made a quicker decision than a white male justice. Because of that comment,to protect her slip of the tongue she just would say she wasn’t aware of certain state-laws that were proposed to her as examples to rule on by senators. From Reuters: Republicans are expected to vote overwhelmingly against Judge Sonia Sotomayor in the Supreme Court confirmation vote set for Thursday with an eye toward a potential next pick from President Barack Obama, according to party lawmakers and strategists. Republicans say the show of party unity will discourage Mr. Obama from choosing a more liberal candidate in future picks and that the arguments they developed against Judge Sotomayor set a precedent for rejecting what they see as "activist" judges. |
