Bio
Hi, I reside in the forgotten borough, the isle of Staten Island. I enjoy writing (DUH!), reading, computers, being a card-carrying liberal, a quality which I passed onto my two grown children and being a professional ball-buster. I enjoy politics and have volunteered on a few political campaigns. I dig blogging and ruffling the feathers of the bureaucacy. I hope none of my posting offend fellow bloggers. After all, boys and girls...we're here to have fun as well as express our opinions. I've been a New Yorker since 1987 but I'm a Midwestern girl at heart.

Shame on the senate nominating committee....

Rate: 0 Flag

The men on the Senate Nominating Committee are a bunch of sexist and racist trolls, especially Orrin Hatch, who's a Republican from Utah.  He claims that he cannot endorse the nomination of Sonia Sotomayer.  They literally made her jump through proverbial hoops with all the questions they asked her. What the hell was this anyway...the inquisition? 

She's a very qualified person to be on the Supreme Court and has years of expeience on the bench in New York.  She was also in the Manhattan District Attorney's office, working under Robert Morgenthau as an Assistant District Attorney. 

They are putting her through the ringer primarily for something she said during a speech she had given years ago.  The press labeled her as a racist because of it.  Don't you think it was a tad bit extreme?

athens got all it's cases done in one day, with no judges and a jury of typically 300. since then it's been all downhill.
