Libertarian chairman, remarks on Supreme Judge Nominee

"WASHINGTON -- America’s third largest party Tuesday criticized President Barack Obama’s nomination of federal appeals court judge Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, citing past rulings that public employers should discriminate in hiring based on race.

“While Judge Sotomayor deserves a fair and impartial hearing, Supreme Court justices should be nominated for their thorough knowledge of and adherence to the Constitution and the rule of law,” said William Redpath, Libertarian National Committee Chairman. "

William Redpath seems to be on just that a "red" enraged path. What kind of remark is that? She brings more experience on the bench than any other current Supreme Court Judge had when they were nominated. To verify what I just said check this link for the facts : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonia_Sotomayor. Please conservative extremist, have some dignity and respect for those who deserve it, even if their views and ideals differ from yours. It's when we as people become intolerant to other ideals that we enter very dangerous territory.

Supreme Court Choice Sonia Sotomayor

Barrack Obama announce today the first hispanic supreme court judge. This president is full of firsts. He upheld his promise to find a judge who is empathetic and understanding. This was criticized by the "right" media, deducting that an empathetic and understanding judge would automatically be a far left liberal, also apparently pointing out that they would like an un-empathetic and non-understanding judge?

Sonia was born in the Bronx, New York to Puerto Rican parents and is 54 years old. Her previous position was federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. She was nominated by Bill Clinton.
