The Senate confirmed Sonia Sotomayor Thursday as the first Hispanic justice on the Supreme Court The vote was 68-31 for Sotomayor, President Barack Obama's first high court nominee. She becomes the 111th justice and just the third woman to serve.http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D99TIOQO0&show_article=1Democrats praised the 55-year-old Sotomayor as a mainstream moderate. But most Republicans voted against her, saying she'd bring personal bias and a liberal agenda to the bench.
Senators took the rare step of assembling at their desks on the Senate floor for the historic occasion, rising from their seats to cast their votes.
She replaces retiring Justice David Souter, liberal named by a Republican president, and she is not expected to alter the court's ideological split.

RINOs Confirm Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor
And people are surprised? You'd have to be very naive to think that there was any chance in hell she WASN'T going to be appointed. It's the same claptrap as always - Democrats push in a largely unknown constituent with a shady background, "Republicans" pretend to care and oppose the nomination, Democrats accuse "Republicans" of being racist, "Republicans" give in and take it up the back end.

Supreme Court Overturns Sotomayor's Decision To Deny White And Hispanic Firefighters Promotion
"A broken clock is right twice a day."
Simply amazing that a decision like this has been made under the dictatorship of Lord and Messiah Obama. This is a great victory for those of us that want truly equal justice in this country. The Supreme Court has overturned the ruling of then appeals court judge Sonia Sotomayor that would deny white and Hispanic firefighters promotion in New Haven, Connecticut. The firefighters were denied the promotion because no blacks passed the test, so, of course, everyone else had to be held back as well.
In a nation filled with ever increasing insanity, little things like this brighten my day. Nevermind, forget about little things; this is pretty huge. When is the last time something like this has happened? I was utterly amazed upon hearing this news, I thought something like this happening in this day and age was just a pipe dream. My faith in the Supreme Court of the United States has been rekindled...somewhat. It is what it is; a victory for forward thinking Americans and I'm very glad these firefighters finally have a little piece of justice.
However, in typical liberal and racial fashion, Obama has come to the rescue of his Affirmative Action appointee. According to the White House, Sotomayor was simply "upholding precedent", and dimwit Robert Gibbs has accused the Supreme Court of judicial activism. "This court decision is obviously fair and non-racial, which is exactly the opposite of what they should be going for", said Gibbs. OK, sorry, that's not a real quote.
At any rate, I am very happy with this decision. Nonetheless, the racist will still be appointed, mark my words. Don't even put it past them to overturn the decision yet again. Until then, bask in the glory while it still shines.
Liberty, peace, and justice for all.

Affirmative Action; The Gift That Keeps On Giving
"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life." - Supreme Court Nominee Sonia Sotomayor
"America is a nation of cowards" - Attorney General Eric Holder
"America is a nation of cowards" - Attorney General Eric Holder
Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor is in the news again, apparently there are hundreds of boxes of new material from her job with the Puerto Rican Legal Defense And Education Fund that need to be reviewed. You know what, forget it, let's just call her Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor, do you really think that Obama is going to change his mind or that she's still under "consideration"? This is as transparent as Hillary Clinton having a position in the administration; basically inevitable.
Rest assured, however, no matter what comes of this, Sotomayor will still be appointed. Her blatantly racist statements and admitting to being the "perfect affirmative action child" only caused even more admiration from the ridiculously left-oriented media, mostly from whites who hate themselves and anyone like them. Ever since these self-revelations about herself, the press and liberals in general have gone out of their way to laud her even more. What is wrong with these people? You have to be everything but a straight, white male conservative to get any sort of respect or decent press from these self-hating troglodytes. Her and Obama could go on a crime spree tomorrow, and the press either would make steady excuses for them, blame it on white people, or downright not cover it to avoid appearing "racist".
Simply put, I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the pandering for no other reason than skin color and ethnic background. I'm sick of the media largely ignoring stories like these but, as per the usual, will carry out issues like the Mark Sanford controversy on for weeks, if not months despite this issue possibly effecting Americans for a very long time. One of the leading points of advice for success in any given field is to stop accepting mediocrity and, even worse, inferiority. To accept Affirmative Action appointees such as Sonia Sotomayor is doing just that and is leading us down a very dangerous path of self-destruction. I don't care what the color of someone's skin color is, if they don't produce results or have the best credentials, they don't get the job. Yet, in this sad day and age, it is *ME* who is considered the racist. Do I live in the Twilight Zone? Where did we go wrong?
Here we have an unknown black man straight out of the Chicago political machine thrust into office by none other than ungodly amount of monetary support from controversial sources and guilty whites who are too afraid to say no to him because they don't want to be accused of being racist. Oh wait, he's technically African-American, but since he threw his white heritage under the bus long ago and everyone else around him considers him black, I guess he is officially black. You also have a biracial (yet, also considered black) Attorney General who says America is a nation full of cowards for not debating the race issue. I agree, AG Holder, let's have that race debate, but it can't be one-sided this time and the ones on the white side can't be the very Obama sycophants who are too cowardly to even utter the word "race"! Now, ladies and gentlemen, we have a Supreme Court nominee who has admitted to being a benefactor of Affirmative Action and, as a result, probably not the best choice.
Whatever happened to choosing the best person with the most impressive references for the job? Whatever happened to being truly color blind and accepting people for who they are, rather than how political correctness tells you to view them? Have we catapulted back in time, except now it's whites being discriminated against rather than non-whites? How has the once proud America devolved into this nation of cowards as Attorney General put it? My twist on it, however, is one that Holder may not have expected. One day, these self-hating, guilt-ridden whites will learn that praisal of political correctness and mediocrity are desctructive not only to our culture, but to everyone's.
One day, I pray, these reverse discriminators will realize it is they who are the real racists.
