That's the Right's argument against Sotomayor.
Honestly, how stupid is that?
It's not even worth thinking about normally except I see this treated like it's a viable argument.
I have never seen anything more ridiculous and childish than politics. I'd say it's a giant sandbox but I wouldn't want to insult children by comparing them to politicians and the punditocracy.

3. Everyone's background and life experiences AND formal education |
|
influences their thinking, and therefore their decisions. We have some sort of problem with this? That our Supreme Court justices are human beings?
