This Woman is a Freaking Liar!

Sonia Sotomayor, Obama's pick for the Supreme Court, has unleashed a torrent of lies during her confirmation hearings.

"That was misunderstood" ... "That was taken out of context" ... "I only wanted to inspire them" ...

She and her Democrat handlers have crafted her responses to deflect criticism for her blatantly racist, sexist, and activist statements from her past. When asked difficult questions, she has either out and out lied to Congress, or she has babbled incoherently for a few minutes, not really saying anything, and then moving on. Questions from Democrat Senators on the panel are written as softballs, to lead her into one of her pre-written speeches. Republicans who are asking hard questions of her are being labeled as racist or sexist.

She will be confirmed and will sit on the Supreme Court. She will be there for decades. The ONLY good thing about this is that she is replacing a liberal, so she will not change the balance of power.

Yes, she is a liar. If she is so committed the law, why has she been reversed four out of six times when her rulings make it to the Supreme Court? Maybe that's why she wants to serve, to keep her own rulings in tact!

I don't blame her at all for wanting to serve. A lifetime posting to the highest court in the land ought to be the ultimate calling of any judge/lawyer.

What I hate is the fact that she has put up a moderate facade to grease the skids during confirmation, fully supported by Dems. She ought to be who she is - stand up for what she believes in, state what she will do. Let the American people see who she really is, and what a reflection upon her mentor, Obama, she is. There should be no fear of this - Republicans cannot stop her, even if she does admit to being far to the left of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

She's pulled an Obama - he convinced enough people during the campaign that he was this wise, middle of the road guy who would work with everyone. It worked, got him elected. I am sure his administration instructed her to follow the same plan during the hearings.
