Sotomayor has had a large number of her opinions overturned
Yes that was what I was hearing on Fox.. had to tune it in to see what those jabberwockeys were saying..

Turned back to CNN I think.. Their commentator was saying she has had one overturned by the supremes, and another one is waiting for final clarification.

For someone who has been on the bench as long as this woman has.. she has the most judicial experience of any nominee in 70 years.. I would thing there would have been a number of times that her opinions would have been challenged.

This could be really ugly for the right.. and I feel so bad about that :evilgrin:

3. DEAL WITH IT YOU FUCKING WHORES!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE FOXNEWS
they should be at least FORCED to remove the name "NEWS" from their channel. Even if they still want to spread lies and comically stupid commentary, I am insulted every day I see those whores lying and calling themselves NEWS.

4. well, if someone does their counting on their fingers
and has lost a few to mishandled guns, etc., then "one" could seem like a "large number." I guess. :dunce:

:rofl:

5. And with the felonious gaggle now sitting on the beach, constitutionally-correct
decisions can be routinely overturned with impunity by malice of far-right-thought. :P

6. We should research Roberts and Scalia, and see how many of their verdicts
were overturned in their shorter jurisprudence careers

7. I think this meme will be meaningless...
... unless it has some kind of context. For example, compared to other judges who have served a similar length of time.

8. Exactly...it is the flavor of the day, and I think the right.. especially good old Mitt

9. The Florida Supreme Court had decisions overturned by the US Supreme Court
so I'm not sure what this would prove. :eyes:
