Am I wrong to ask this....
The people nominated for the SCOTUS cannot make statements about their philosophy, or how it would apply to any possible case that might come before the court right? I mean that in a case by case basis. So why the hell do people bother with asking case/issue specific questions?
Even if I am wrong in that, what do they expect her to say? In regards to abortion she would have every clinic shut down tomorrow if she could? These hearings are political, she obviously wants the nomination, I'm sure there is something more productive that could be done over the course of the last few days.
As far as her comments, they are mostly harmless, although I do think her statement where she said that the appellate courts are supposed to make policy, and where she chuckled and noted seconds after because she said that on camera, was retarded of her.
Wise Latina? Meh, stupid, offbase, fairly in conflict with the whole notion of justice, hence the lady is blindfolded: All the same, no biggie. I'm not to worried about her, she seems even keeled enough, albeit boneheaded at times (ala Ricci).
