Self-loathers like guest above kill me… Yes, she is Latina; yes, she has a rags-to-riches type story. But why does everyone assume that “woman” and/or “minority” means the candidate is inferior? She’s been both a district judge and a Circuit Court of Appeals judge, with more experience at the time of her nomination than ANY OTHER justice in history at the time of their nomination. She is on equal footing (if not above) with any other nominee or candidate. Given the equal footing in credentials, it’s not surprising that Obama would turn to other qualifications to decide on his nominee. Why are we inferring some calculating intent on his part by nominating a Latina justice? Don’t we all believe that the Court should be representative of the nation? There should have looooooong ago been a Latino SCOTUS justice, the fact that Obama is finally addressing that deficiency does not make him a panderer and does not make Sotomayor some kind of figurehead nomination.

Although, I agree that the comparison between J-Lo and Sotomayor is trivial at best, one has to admit that choosing her was, in part, a way to rally hispanic support for the administration. That being said, J-Lo may be “hot-as-hell”, but I’d choose Sotomayor as a long term partner. She offers more stability.

I think she prefers to go by “Hey, Hispanic chick, lady” as shown by Glenn Beck (read: He-Hi-Ch-La).

Seriously, in “illegal alien,” these racists and their constant attacks are desgraciados. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off the eat some empanadas and oppress the white man.
