re: #190 OldLineTexan
I am less than thrilled with her, which is not surprising.
OTOH, I have no problem with this discussion going on until she is confirmed.
As far as the other things: it will always be necessary to multitask.
I guess I look at this as one of distinction: do conservatives in general examine Sotomayor’s record? I think we all should examine her record as something newsworthy.
But should we be attacking her as a “racist” or a “sexist” or “unqualified”? I think it is only productive to do so if there is evidence of that - and a few comments she said is not true evidence of this. Labeling her racist only harms conservative credibility.
I want to again clarify - we absolutely should be quick to examine Sotomayor’s record, but slow to judge whether she is a bad justice. I think some conservatives, including Rush Limbaugh, and Newt Gingrich, have been far too quick to label her a bad justice with little evidence.
