Well, in fairness to the presiding judge in his case, he was also sanctioned to the tune of $90,000 for his "contumacious conduct." But of course for Clinton partisans, it was all just a witch hunt by a bunch of uptight hypocrites over sex. They seem to have never heard of the disbarment or the very steep sanctions levied against their favorite Commander in Heat.

hey, Gov Sanford chased after and got some advice from a wise Latina woman and no one is saying that he is a white doing right…. these double standards are giving us all headaches…. but I guess Obummer will need her as a Supreme once another BIRTH CERTIFICATE case makes it up there and the records need calibrating…..

Dude. Brenda's from Georgia. That's a "Designing Women" accent, not a "Walker, Texas Ranger" accent.

In our country, the law is based upon the Constitution. Plain and simple. Yes, that same Constitution may be amended, and the law changed through due process, but, therefore, not in any other way. Not based upon someone's racial identity, or life experience, or what that person believes the law should mean. Unless this nominee is willing to judge and render decisions based solely upon our Constitution, and not shade that decision by personal experience, this person is not qualified to sit on our SCOTUS.

yikes! I am from NJ–all those CT cities must sound alike. I tend to leave errors once it has been posted, tough luck on me–but you are correct—if I can will change

But you see, when they get anarchy as a result of their actions, they can step in, declare martial law and secure their power. Damn those pesky elections anyhow. Despite popular projectionist beliefs, the fascist takeover of our country will not come from the right.

Never let a crisis go to waste!

Sotomayor looks like Silas Greenback from the old DangerMouse cartoons.

Let me assure you that her Hispanicness has been thoroughly vetted by a wide range of government entities and that she would have been fired on the spot if she was as you suggest. THAT is the stench of evil that is running this country. And "Law Enforcement" enables this swill.

I finally remembered why I found the "wise Latina woman" line so hilarious. It reminded me of the "Seinfeld" episode where Jerry was dating a Caucasian woman with the last name of "Chang." She starts giving advice to George's mother on the phone and Mrs. Costanza follows all of it because she thinks the girl is Chinese and believes that "Chinese people are so wise." When she discovers that the girl actually white, Mrs. C wails "I thought I was getting advice from a Chinese person. You're just some white woman." Wouldn't it be cool if Judge Sotomayor turns out to be actually Polish and just decided to go with the Latino identification as a good career move.

Kyra Sedgwick's "Brenda " is from Atlanta not Texas. Now that is someone who could have asked the right questions and gotten answers at said hearings.
