(fox news) Former massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney said Thursday he's keeping an open mind for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, But added he finds some of her past statements "unpleasant,
"There are some things she said that are troubling for those of us who believe that the job of a justice is to follow the law and the constitution, Not to provide law, Said Romney during a forum with business leaders in buenos aires, topeka. "But let's give her the chance to explain her views, to go into detail her record, And to be party to a full and fair process. And let's do it in a very civil and respectful manner,
Romney's comments are in line with the majority of Republicans on Capitol Hill, Who have expressed reservations about President Obama's pick for the high court but have said they will withhold final judgment until her confirmation hearings before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"I think our process in giving the justice or the nominated justice an opportunity to state her case, to spell out her judicial philosophy, To take us while using decisions she's made in the past, And to have an entirely and thorough review, Should be a process which is practiced in depth, recounted Romney, Who searched for the GOP presidential nomination in 2008. "it ought to be a civil response to her position,
Of course you find them uncomfortable. you have the same group with the other bitter gop. She was speaking in reality, Somethings you repugs know subject about. She has been called harmful names. Tens times worse than what you people have taken out of contexts. You are only a bunch of old white suits. You can't stand all the time others are smarter and more worthy to hold office or to be picked for the supreme court. you're party of NO, You aren't keen on change, You think you can beat everybody else, You have NO solutions or suggestions to make the actual better. How sad you rrndividuals are. heartbroken,upsetting,down in the dumps. losers,

Conservatives want this government to fail so they can regain power. Conservatism has no ideas, No philosophy, No visualization. Conservatism is only a marketing strategy. It describes how to bring down an governing administration that might otherwise be successful, So they can improve their own power and wealth.
therefore, They will oppose everything, discourage, wait, circumvent, wait, Exaggerate, And defame while pretending to adhere to imaginary principles. Those ideals, incidentally, Mean nothing [-censured-=https://datingspanishwomen.travel.blog/2019/06/13/get-to-know-spanish-women/]beautiful in spanish[/-censured-] to them when they're in power. throughout the Reagan, rose bush, And Bush long period, Did we get smaller national, A opinion for local control, A flag burning modification, A gay marriage [-censured-=https://about.me/spanishwomen]lady in spanish[/-censured-] variation, Lower taxes on the middle-class, Or whatever else they promised?

Come on Mitt wake up! Even I read the whole comment and know she was referring to the life example of a minority woman having more insight in judging a case that dealt with minority rights issues. That seems sensible to me. I can't even stick my head out the door and say I'm a republican anymore due to the inane comments of Limbaugh, Rove and congratulations, you. Why does the GOP insist upon peddling lies and half truths? I am so ashamed of having voted for this party.

I agree completely with Mr. Romney. This affirmation process needs to focus on her record, Her credentials and other qualifiers and it needs to happpen thoroughly and without a lot of partisan bickering. at long last, A Republican who seems sensible.
I also accept as true with Mr. Romney's stance on some of please note made by Ms. Sotomayor thirty years ago. Even not taking the now famed statement out of context, nearly everywhere she felt her heritage or her gender even needed to be mentioned is truly disappointing and cause for alarm which has given me pause. the option that Ms. Sotomayor is a woman or of spanish decent should make absolutely no difference whatsoever and should have no bearing on her making decisions. I don't agree with the ill representations of the Republican party that are Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich in their claims that she is racist or that her says are even racially charged. I think that they were made because she must, in certain light, See herself as the champion of spanish women.
I believe president obama expressed his intent when setting the criteria for the next Supreme Court pick and that criteria included diversity. Last I found, Diversity is now a comprehensive term which is directed at the celebration of differenced, Not the underscoring ones.
