It's probably just another racist tea party trick. See, they want you to think those are Dems putting on a charade, but those are really the tea party leaders (incognito of course). MY OH MY THE TEA PARTY IS EVIL.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 10, 2010 -> 07:30 PM) That too, that any time a non-white male is picked was just because they were a woman, or they were a minority, that is really obnoxious - this is one of the few things I'll actually agree with Clarence Thomas on. Of course some people did that to Sotomayor, and I was like did they even bother to look at her education and career before hollering about how she wasn't qualified? I doubt it, I bet the only thing they knew about her was the "wise Latina" quote and the ruling she made in the New Haven case (except they won't know why she made that ruling, i.e. she's not really in a position to overturn it, that's not what courts are for). she got the supreme court nod based in large part because of demographics and has clearly stated that she believes courts should not only interpret law but "The court is where policy is made " in her opinion. Most people don't follow things correctly or understand why that is dangerous. I will give her credit for coming out and admitting it, as most of the 'supremes' likely feel that way but would never say so.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 12:08 PM) The Senate wasn't the ones doing the vetting. The Bush Administration knew exactly what they were getting with that Chief Justice; a guy who would make Scalia and Thomas look like cowards. He just was smarter than the Senate in his confirmation hearings. Which is probably not as hard as we'd like to think. well Obama should be able to get a liberal pick in that case; as there are more Democrats in the Senate and the GOP is a bunch of stupid rednecks. shouldn't be too hard to outsmart a bunch of hicks, especially for a genius like Obama.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 12:06 PM) Point 1: Yeah, like Justice Roberts, who really did a show with that "I'm a centrist" and "I respect precedent" thing in his confirmation. Point 2: Yeah, Stevens started in 1975. Doesn't mean he wasn't by far the most liberal member of the court. Point 3: If you think that nothing has changed since the 1980's in the vetting of these candidates to make sure that a Republican isn't appointing a Democrat or vice-versa...you're simply wrong. points 1 and 3 contradict themselves

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 12:01 PM) The sad thing is...somehow I doubt you see the difference between Sotomayor and Stevens on the ideological spectrum. the sad thing is I doubt you can comprehend that it's difficult to tell what a judges ideological spectrum will be on the supreme court until they have served for a while. It's also sad that you don't even realize a Republican put Stevens on the court.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:11 AM) Hillary anyone? There were rumors a while back. will she wear the logos of her corporate owners on her robe?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:55 AM) There is no way he'll get someone as liberal to replace JPS. The Right would never allow it. he'll get a liberal to replace him. for sure. just like the 'wise latina'

damn

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:31 PM) Have you ever seen Andruw Jones hit? He's not exactly a finesse hitter. he doesn't seem to be any type of hitter any more.

should have at least tried to steal 3rd after the bunt

hmmm. strike?

finish them

bS

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 09:03 PM) LOL, you guys cannot be serious about this forum somehow being one-sided on the left. On the right maybe, lately, but even then I'd say the silly extremist theater crap is fairly close to even. Slight right lean lately. IMO, the filibuster has more lefty posts/posters . but it is a Chicago White Sox site, and Chicago is mostly Dems. So I would expect as much.

i thought that was gonna drop

hahaha
