Obama nominates foolish Latina woman

Jonah Goldberg comments on Obama’s latest first pick for the Supreme Court:
From the self-parody file:

"I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life." -Judge Sonia Sotomayor, in her Judge Mario G. Olmos Law and Cultural Diversity Lecture at the University of California (Berkeley) School of Law in 2001

A foolish, sexist, racist judge - just what’s needed in Obama’s post-racial America.

It also sounds like she is more interested in the rights of terrorists than in protecting national security. Not a good sign.

What the hell does someone's gender or race have to do with how they perform on the Supreme Court? Should they rename it the SubPrime Court?

Gotta figure those white males are the source of all that ails the US.
