Thought for the Day

If Sonia Sotomayor is so great, how come she only ever said one thing in her whole life?

    Because she’s a sleeper cell, Jim. Sekrit Mooslim sleeper agent Barack HUSSEIN Obama is in league with the MECHA’s plans for a Reconquista of the southwest, which is why he nominated a Puerto Rican from New York. Her whole life she’s kept her true agenda secret, except that one speech.

    Sadly, there are people on the Senate Judiciary Committee who would take that theory seriously.

    She’s a hedgehog. Or an eagle? A wombat…?

    Well if there’s mechas involved the fight scenes should be awesome.

    I need something like an epi pen, but for snark, if I’m going to keep reading this blog.

    Hey! If this is anyone other than Steve Allen, you’re stealing my bit!

    Shit, maybe she’s really a Sekrit Invid who only looks human?

    FWIW, the CQ has her repeating term in question (and phrases like it) a number of times over the years.

    Since identity politics of one sort or another have always been part of the nomination process (going back to Washington only supporting folks for the Court who were good federalists – not the party, but supporters of the Constitution from the start), I don’t think we have a difference of kind here.

    I loved that show when I was a kid, joe. Absolutely loved it.

    I am glad Fat Joe did not live to see this denigration of the Boricua.

    Uh… I mean, Big Punisher. Fat Joe remains with us, & was even in the Fast & the Furious sequel released earlier this year.
