Read this, and click through and read the post it references, which states: [This] should give everyone who values these freedoms in our society serious cause for concern about Sotomayor's possible nomination to the High Court.
The very bad first amendment decision herein referenced is a far more direct blow to civil liberties than anything I recall from Roberts or Alito during their nomination processes. I am very seriously concerned that the Democratic party would nominate someone in light of this issue - which was known and discussed before the nomination was finalized. There is no universe in which this was a correct or acceptable outcome in this case, and someone who would make this decision does not take civil liberties seriously enough to be the kind of Supreme Court justice that I want on the bench. Oppose Sotomayor. |
