#1 Affirmative action. The gift that keeps on giving.

#2 I'm of the opinion it couldn't have worked much better for conservatives. Obama was gonna appoint a lefty to the Court, and a minority as well. Because she has been spectacularly indiscrete in her bleatings, she had to reverse Obama's "empathy" standard and virtually all her previous positions. She also pledged fealty to the constitution, and NOT as a "living document". She'll backslide on those, but will catch teh shit when she does. We all knew she lied to get through the confirmation. She is also a dim-intellect, and will not get others to her side with her limited powers of persuasion over her intellectual betters. It could've been a LOT worse

#3 Yeah, what Frank said plus the fact that she has been overturned on appeal so often you could do better by flipping a coin. A Magic 8-Ball would make a better judge.

#5 I have only one problem with her an it's not race.
60% of her decisions were overturned on appeal.
THAT'S A VERY POOR RATIO.
