and what about her statement that latina women make the best judges? and the fact that she’s currently complaining about cases that are appealed to the scotus?
if it wasn’t for activist judges so comfortable with ignoring the constitution to promote personal political ideology, maybe she wouldn’t be seeing so many cases. Her complaining about cases being appealed to scotus, is like an arsonist complaining about the sound of fire engine sirens ( stolen from ted cruz).

So, you don't know that out of 232 (I saw 432 somewhere else online) cases if that is a lot or not. For all I know (or you know) Scallia had similar numbers and mountains could be molehills here.
As far as her comments, I think it wasn't great wording, but do I think that having diverse backgrounds on SCOTUS is good? Absolutely, since they are representing cases for all Americans, and that means I want judges appointed by conservatives and liberals.

her comments are the textbook definition of bigotry.
here’s a big difference between liberals and conservatives. for big important jobs ( scotus qualifies) i don’t give a frogs fat azz about pigmentation or genetalia, and neither does anyone else who isn’t a moron. if the very best candidate is a white man, he gets the job, if the best candidate is a purple drag queen, they get the job.
Bill Clinton committed to naming a woman AG, which is why we got an incompetent moron named Janet Reno, and if that appointment was done to make women feel better, i’m sure that means a lot to the women burned to death in an idiotic and unnecessary military attack in Waco.
The country would be very well
served, if your side would
pay less attention to things that people have absolutely zero control over, and which say absolutely nothing about our character or
abilities.

you humiliate yourself a lot, you know that? i would give anything for Condaleeza Rice to run, anything. Or Bobby Jindal. Or Nikki Haley. none are white men. my side thinks blacks deserve better than what democrats have given them. It takes a special
kind of idiot, to call that racist.
Hilary didnt lose because she ran against a white man. she lost because she was a godawful, unlikeable witch, and a big reason why she lost is because blacks stayed home.

Well, I see William Foster is getting wound up again. Actually the country would be very well served, if "your side" would pay less attention to things that people have absolutely zero control over, and which say absolutely nothing about their character or abilities.
Democrats have several times more women and several times more minorities than Republicans do in Congress. And old white males are much more predominant among Republicans. And if you are not Christian, fuhgeddaboudit you ain't getting in that club, with the exception of a couple token Jews.
But that doesn't match the victim narrative, does it?

"the country would be very well served, if "your side" would pay less attention to things that people have absolutely zero control over, and which say absolutely nothing about their character or abilities"
Please specify the things that people have no control over, which the GOP uses to divide the country on? I'm all ears...
"Democrats have several times more women and several times more minorities than Republicans do in Congress"
True, and the overwhelming majority of blacks vote democrat. I'd love to know why. I saw what decades of democrats control have done for blacks in my home state, in New Haven, Bridgeport and Hartford. I say those people deserve better and we need to try different ideas. Liberals say they need more of the same. You tell me which idea is racist, and why. Again, I'm all ears.
Democrats prefer their blacks aborted, but failing that, they like them addicted to welfare and safely contained in cities which the liberal elites will never spend any time in. With zero upward economic mobility.

And if the GOP is that limited (old, white, male Christians), how do you explain that the GOP holds the presidency, the Senate, and a majority of state legislatures and governorships? Lemme guess, Russia and voter suppression?
My side doesn't make a habit of identifying as victims. That's the play on the left, not the right.
