Who NEEDS Sonia Sotomayor?

We are under no compulsion to award Sonia Sotomayor a seat on the Supreme Court merely because she is a Puerto Rican chick.

Sotomayor grew up in the South Bronx. Big deal, yo — I grew up in the South Bronx too, and no one ever gave ME a free ride through the Ivy Leagues.

And yet I believe I am no less intelligent than she. And frankly, I think I’m a better lawyer, even though I’ve never attended law school — which I am sure only works in my favor in any event. At the very least, I do understand that the Constitution is no “living” or “culturally evolving” document, and that its principles have nothing to do with redefining justice as Marxism, feminism or statism.

I know the importance of interpreting the Constitution in keeping with the original intent of the Framers, versus yielding to the seductions of some narcotic, post-modernist, legal positivism. One judicial activist on any U.S. court is one too many, and this is the Supreme Court we’re talking about, for the love of justice. Furthermore, the particular judicial activist in question here has been publicly much too cute about her proclivities in this regard. Well, I have no taste for seeing policy made in any court of appeals, thanks just the same.

And she knows, this is on tape, and she should never say that, because judges “don’t make law,” and she knows, OK, she knows, and she’s not promoting or advocating it.
She really isn’t … she’s — “you know.”

And we do know, don’t we?

I mean, Sotomayor’s got all that “wise Latina woman, richness of her experiences” thing going on, you know?  Well, maybe you don’t know, because this, after all, is a persons-of-color thing, and you might not understand.

America, America.

All of that imbecility aside, I understand that this nation’s founding documents and the Fathers’ philosophies of governance afford no legal sanction at any time, in any place to any of the indecent and dishonest inequities we typically get from those who “think” like Sotomayor, inequities born of all this affirmative-action-baby-type social engineering we see today — history of slavery or no history of slavery.

Permitting slavery at the establishment of this great nation was a serious lapse in judgment on the part of the Founding Fathers, to be sure. And this has since then produced no end of cynical machinations on the part of those who desire nothing better than to destroy this great experiment in self-government and replace it with a globalist empire of their own humanist arrogance, based at the UN.

All such are free to drop dead.

Whatever the stumblings of our Fathers may have been, there is no excuse for this kidnapping of the American constitutional republic that Sotomayor and Obama are fomenting and perpetrating now — assisted to no small degree by the limp-wrists in the Senate and their streetwalker partners in the “news” media.

America does not need a 60s/70s-era subversive on the Court simply because she’s got a little melanin in her skin and knows what “sí, se puede” means. We’ve already got one of those in the Oval Office, where he has wreaked more than enough damage as it is.

NO to Sotomayor. NO.
