Sould Christians Be Concerned about Sotomayor?…

President Obama has nominated federal judge Sonia Sotomayor to become the next U.S. Supreme Court Justice. Typically, Christians are quick to analyze the prospective justice’s view on abortion – usually. Only in this case there is a problem. Judg…

I have mixed feelings about people who are pro-choice, and like Allah, am willing to compromise with very, very early abortions (like, first few weeks).

But people who are so outspoken about their pro-abortion views, I have deep reservations and suspicions about. Why are they so insistent about murder?

Earlier this week The Washington Times reported that there are six Catholics on the court without Sotomayor, everyone but Stevens, Souter, Breyer and Ginnsberg.

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if the GOP Senators suddenly said that according to their research it is quite likely that Sotomayor would VERY LIKELY vote to repeal ROE. And for that reason they are supporting her.

True or not, what would the donkeys do?

If the nominee was a white male, who was a member of the KKK and supported slavery, congress would shred him _and_ the person who had dared to nominate him. And rightly so.

But a hispanic woman who is a member of ‘La Raza’ (according to the ABA), a group that is, IMHO, just as bad as the KKK? Hey, no problem — welcome to SCOTUS.

Ah, wow. Just freakin’ wow.

This is no longer America, folks. It’s the twilight zone.

Of course not. Why ask her about specific issues when you can TELL her about specific issues.

GOP, Sen.Nelson of Nebraska is said to be wobbly on Sotomayer. Put pressure on him, Blanche Lincoln n other red state Dems. Run ads showing their support of radical activists on judges. if you peel one or two Red state Dems, like Nelson, it’ll make your task easier.

I’m with the comment above asking why some on the right are so easily played or at least credulously willing to play along.

Yesterday Rush cited her wording on the matter. She used the phrase “anti-abortion” rather than “pro-life” but used “pro-choice” rather than “pro-abortion”.

There’s probably more evidence that this radical woman is anything but pro-life.

Hussein.

BTW, I don’t sense that abortion is an issue that could sink Sotomayor. If there is one, I think it’s her judicial stance on the Second Amendment.

There are plenty of Democrats who know they can’t igore the NRA.

You know, I grew up in a split middle class family. I'm Protestant. When do I get a turn on the Court? To the issue at hand I say, nice effort by the Left to stave off conservative opposition. They think all those "religious nuts" will "put down their pitchforks" with a confused look and say "Der, well if she's gunna kill Row B. Wade, I reckon she be alright."

I thought there was to be no litmus test on a particular issue. Lapsed Catholics who return to the church typically become devout Catholics. I say we should start a prayer vigil for a change of heart.

Then she should be questioned just like Roberts and others were asked.
No more, no less…she should have to answer the same question and in the same arena, with the same attitude as, Bork, Roberts, Thomas, etc.
No more, no less…for equality sake…no more, no less.
