Gloria Borger asks, "Wouldn't it be more prudent for Republicans to save their fire for a better target? Someone perhaps not as qualified? Or someone who is not quite as historic an appointment as Sotomayor?" Gee, that didn't seem to stop the Democrats when President George H.W. Bush nominated Clarence Thomas. "I think that the only reason Clarence Thomas is on the Court is because he is black. I don't believe he could have won had he been white. And the reason is, I think it was a cynical ploy by President Bush." That's Joe Biden's take, from 1992, of the Thomas nomination of the previous year. Couldn't one make the same argument regarding Sonia Sotomayor? Obama clearly signalled that this was an affirmative action pick--that he would nominate a woman, and most of the talk centered around an Hispanic woman. In other words, the president wasn't looking for the best judge but a judge that best satisfies his coalition of voters. Was a transgendered Eskimo unavailable? Knowing where her bread is buttered, the mediocre Sotomayor has supported racial quotas from the bench and stated that Hispanic women generally possess wisdom more suited for the bench than white men. Yet, for Gloria Borger and so many others there is somehow something untoward about reorienting Biden's criticism of Thomas towards Sotomayor.
Ok. This IS all Bush's fault.
This is the current President of the United States making the following statements. The guy who is recommending SCJ's.
Notice “the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties” and “community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change.”
"But, the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society. To that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as its been interpreted and Warren Court interpreted in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can’t do to you. Says what the Federal government can’t do to you, but doesn’t say what the Federal government or State government must do on your behalf, and that hasn’t shifted and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendancy to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that."
