She's Latina Supreme

Bravo POTUS Obama, she's a great choice. She's more than qulified, she's a woman, she's Hispanic, she's a survivor. I think she is exactly what the Supreme Court needs, a fresh new thinker. Someone not from the majority. Someone young enough to effect the direction the high court takes for decades to come. She will be a voice for tens of millions of peoplewho sometime feel left out when it comes to people like themselves in high profile, high power positions. Not to mention that she will be a top notch Supreme Court Justice, in my opinion. The high court, indeed all our public policiy organizations need to look like America.

Of course there will always be some Americans who will never be pleased with anyone the POTUS nominates. These people will only be pleased with Justices that see the world the way they see it. That has lived the life the they have lived. People like Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich, who calls her a racist. Just think of Limbaugh's nerve, calling Judge Sotomayor, or anyone for that matter a racist. Limbaugh and his "halfican-American",(his decription of Americans with one black parent and one white parent, guess only white parent is the American half), or his one hit wonder race baiting melody, "Barack the magic negro". Then there's Glen Beck, he called her a "chick lady". I have to agree with him halfway there. She's no doubt a "lady". As for the "chick", I no doubt think Beck's a "Bo-Chick"(old term used in my family meaning a "wimp"). Proof of him being a bo-chick; his appearance with the ladies on the View. Beck lied behind their backs about the train ride he, Whoopie and Barbara took together to the White House Corespondent Dinner. When Beck was stupid enough to guest on the View, he completely "bo-chicked" out when they called him out on his lies face to face. .

Our senator here in Alabama, Jeff Sessions. Sen. Sessions says he doesn't understand why the POTUS would want an empathic Justice on tne High Court. Of course if a man has no empathy he wouldn't understand empathy. And to look at Jeff Sessions it's easy to see he's a man with little, if any compassion. Sessions always look as if he has just left a kkk rally. He reminds me of one those white guys I in see in old pictures gleeing proudly at a body that's been lynched. Sessions and kkk super hero Sam Bowers could pass for brothers.

Karl Rove says Judge Sotomayor doesn't have the intellect to sit on the Supreme Court. Ha! Karl Rove, the man who is the main reason George W. Bush got elected POTUS. Enough said on how good Rove is at judging a person's intelligence. How dumb is Rove to think that Bush has the intellect to lead a backyard bar-b-que, let alone the largest most powerful nation on earth, The United States. The country thanks you Rove.

And the there's my favorite white supremacist Pat Buchanan. Master of the republican party's southern strategy. Old Pat's on tv everyday crying about the plight of the poor deprived, discriminated against, underprivileged white American male due to minorities having equal opportunities. Buchanan says judge Sotomayor is an affirmative action choice. That POTUS Obama only picked her because she is Hispanic. Probably true, but so what. The only reason Buchanan is on tv today is because he was an affirmative action pick years ago. In other words he got his job as Nixon's speechwriter back when because he's white. Nixon needed a top notch race baiter, Nixon hired Pat Buchanan for the job. Richard Nixon knew how to pick the right men for the particular unsavory tasks he needed to have done.

As I already said these people would be against any nominee that the POTUS put up. But the idea of this Porto Rica woman being a Supreme seems to scare them more sillier than already are. I want to know why it scares them so. Nothing will change for them. They will still be way overpaid propagandist. Even if they never made another penny, they are set for the rest of their lives, in fact their great-great-great grand kids will have no money worries. Maybe it's the fact that they are slowily losing power. I'm sure these loud mouths never imagined the day would come that a black man would be POTUS, and would nominate an Hispanic woman to sit as a Supreme Court Justice. Well to all above mentioned men, I say to you this is progress. Get used to it, and get over it.

THE ELEPHANTS IN SHEEP'S WOOL PART II

As my profile states I am a avid watcher of political talk shows. So I want to share a few things that I think you will find interesting that I have picked up on from one of these shows.On August 3rds Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough's early morning gab fest (and the same show where the host once said Fred Thomson's wife could work the poles at strip clubs). One of the call in guest was none other than Pat Buchanan. Good ole boys Joe and Pat were yuckin' it up about Barack Obama saying at the CNN youtube debate that as President he would meet with so-called rogue world leaders, and Sen. Obama's saying in an earlier speech that he would hunt down terrorists in Pakistan. And that he, Sen. Obama, would not use nuclear weapons in Pakistan because civilians would also be killed, and that nuclear weapons were off the table.

The two good ole boys really went at it, saying Sen. Obama was a rookie, making rookies' mistakes. Yea right, big mistake to try talking instead of shooting, or to hunt down terrorists, or not drop nuclear weapons that will not only kill thousands of innocent men, women and children, but also have negative repercussions on the entire world for generations to come. Can you imagine the radio active fallout if such weapons are ever used again? Or the damage that will be done to America's reputation? We think we are disliked around the world now.

Anyway, the good ole boys of Morning Joe said Sen. Obama was weak for saying he would talk to so-called rogue world leaders, and that Sen. Obama was being to tough for wanting to hunt down terrorist.

Fact is, nothing Sen. Obama says would be the right thing to these boys. If Sen. Obama had every view point the same as Hillary, Sacrbourgh and Buchanan would say Barack is wrong, and Hillary is right.

Good ole boy Joe said Sen. Obama had no idea that he was throwing away Florida in the general election when Sen. Obama said, when asked, that he would meet with Castro and, that Sen. Obama had not calculated his answer enough. Well, Joe has it ever crossed your small mind that Sen. Obama was just being honest, and not being calculated. After all, there are other people that live in Florida besides the Cubans who hate Castro. Maybe, Sen. Obama sees, as I do, that the U.S. embargo against Cuba is only hurting the Cubans that actually live in Cuba. Besides, the Clintons threw away the Cuban vote in Florida when Bill Clinton returned Elian Gonzales to his father, who lives in Cuba. The Florida Cubans are furious with the Clintons for that.

In fact, at different points in time, Hillary has made the same statements as Barack pertaining to Pakistan and, nuclear weapons, and she also said the U.S President should meet with so-called rogue world leaders. She was for these things before she she was against them.

When Joe Scarborough was in congress he voted against President Clinton on almost everything. He voted to impeach the President. He voted against intervening in the Balkans. Yet Scarboroubgh says Sen. Obama is naive and inexperienced. How smart and experience were those votes?

During the lead up to the Iraq War, and in the beginning when the war seemed an easy victory for the U.S.; Scarborough used every chance he got to lead the battle charge (from the safety of his chair) for bombing Iraq back to the Stone Age. Now that there's a possibility that his sons might have to fight in the war Scarborough wanted so badly, he's now become so anti war.

Pat Buchanan worked for Richard Nixon, the only President in history who had to resign rather than face impeachment for crimes he committed while holding the highest political office in the world, and while holding that office made derogatory remarks about blacks and Jews according to recently released white house tapes, as reported by Newsweek. The same Pat Buchanan who very recently told Bill O'Reilly on O'Reilly's show, that the whites in South Africa were suffering because apartheid was outlawed there. It seems Pat Buchanan thinks it was better in South Africa when blacks there lived in conditions that were as bad as slavery was in the United States. Yet Buchanan calls Sen. Obama naive, incompetent, irresponsible, and inexperienced. Give me a break! How wise, responsible, competent or experienced was that stupid statement?

Yes, like Pat And Joe most pundits want Hillary Clinton as the democratic nominee, and there is a very long list of right wing gas bags cheering Hillary on. But are we going to let the right pick our nominee? I say Hell No! I don't care who the right picks as their loser. But ask yourself this, do you really want to relive the Clinton era? And all the baggage that went with it? Since 1992, it's been constant Clinton. Don't you think its time for someone new?

Yes, the right will use the name Clinton to make millions. The same righties who are praising Hillary now will be vilifying her in books, television, radio, newspaper and anywhere else they can make a buck off hating her. The right wingers are sheep now, but the day after Hillary's elected President they will once again become wolves.
