Going through the motions





Sotomayor hearing moves to key social issues

They began the senate hearings yesterday on Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court. Why bother. The republicans don't have the votes or the balls to stop the nomination and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said as much in his opening remarks to Sotomayor yesterday.

Openly admitting that short of a "melt down, you are going to be confirmed." Wow....that's what I call GOP leadership personified. Comparing what this woman is on record as saying concerning her own biased vies with how those same remarks would have ended his own career, Senator Graham none the less was willing to immediately concede that her confirmation is in the bag.

I say pull the plug on this farce now and just seat the woman as the newest justice. Why waste my time and my money putting on a charade of supposed probing examination. In the end, Obama gets his liberal Latin justice and the world continues on. and maybe if we are lucky? John Paul Stevens will either go belly up or decide to quit and that will give the messianic one another shot to corrupt the court with another social anarchist.

Just spare me all the media hyped false drama and in depth analysis of what we all know is a done deal.

I saw just a few seconds of the news video from yesterday...

This is a very angry person.

As I said, what's the point. The GOP has already rolled and gone belly up. It's not even about the votes IMO, it's about the principle.

I say cancel the crap and the phony drama and go ahead and vote her through. She can't be any worse than what she is replacing.
