I’ll start with the obvious reasons that she is a danger to society.  She and Obama are cut from the same bolt of socialist cloth.  They both believe in the collective rights of society over the rights of individuals.  She believes that owning a gun is not a fundamental right, Obama his creeping around the fringes of registering all guns ala Canada so that at some point in the future he will have a data base of all gun owners.   When this occurred in Canada, the next step was confiscation of all firearms unless under very rare circumstances.  Look for the next census to have the question about how many firearms are in your house.

But I digress.  We can look at this nomination in two ways:

Firstly, Obama displays not only a poor understanding of judicial duties but used very poor judgment in selecting Sotomayor, a judge with a 60% reversal rate in the SCOTUS.

Or, the version I believe is correct; Obama knows exactly what he is doing and understands well that if he can get Sotomayor seated on the Supreme Court his chances of forcing his social and economic agenda on Americans will increase, especially if another Justice retires during his term.  He wants to deflect what happened to FDR during the Great Depression when most of his New Deal programs were scrapped by the SCOTUS as unconstitutional.  FDR got around that by nominating more “progressive” Justices and succeeded in seeding the court with a majority who favored his idea of economic justice.  We are still dealing with some of his programs like, Social Security, Medicare, the TVA (actually a fairly successful Fascist-like enterprise), the IRS and the Federal Reserve.  As you can see, these programs have far-reaching consequences and have hung on for nearly a century now.  Think about what damage Obama can do with a few Supreme Court justices and a quick and ready pen.

LEGALIZED PLUNDER:  With a sympathetic SCOTUS Obama will be able to change laws to make even more plundering legal.  Remember, there are still trillions of dollars out there somewhere, no one knows where, to be tapped into and with the right laws the participants can have a field day and never have to face the music because what they are doing will be “legal.”  One such new legal plunder is now under way, it’s called Cap and Trade.  An old one that's has been ongoing for a long time now is called "progressive" taxation.  There are a lot of ways the public can be plundered and it all sounds legitimate.  Public schools are one of the greatest plunderers of our wealth by forcing us to send our children to schools that demand more and more of our money and give less and less in quality teaching.  Easy or free credit is another way: the coercion of banks by Congress to write unsecured, risky loans for mortgages to the poor managed to help bring about the collapse of our economy.  These are the many of the same ways that France was being plundered before her Revolution in 1848.

WHY SOTOMAYOR?  I think because it was a typical Obama move.  Bold and swift; catch the opposition off guard, then slam it down their throat.  You know… the same way all petty tyrants do in South America and Africa and Venezuala.  By the time the opposition has time to figure out what just happened, there’s another, even more audacious move by Obama.  The liberals are high-fiving and pumping their fists.  They aren’t aware that the  leadership Obama displays is without an understanding of the far-reaching unintended consequences of his ill-thought-out policies.  He chose Sotomayor because she is an activist, plain and simple.  He could have chosen a qualified liberal, but that was the furthest thing from his mind. He has just slapped the American people in the face and is sitting back saying, “What are you going to do about it?”  It’s just one more nail in the coffin of the republic.

SO WHAT’S ALL THE FUSS ABOUT?  Seven Republican Senators hold the fate of the country in their hands.  They are all on the Senate Judiciary Committee and will be among those who must decide whether to release Sotomayor’s nomination to the full Senate.  They are: Jeff Sessions, Orrin Hatch, Charles Grassley, Jon Kyl, Lindsey Graham, John Cornyn and Tom Coburn. Will they stand up for us?  Only one of them has to fold and vote to send her nomination to the Senate and its Katie bar the door.  I believe at least one will fold and the resulting debate in the Senate has the potential to divide our country on racial, economic, and social grounds even more, and as old Abe Lincoln said, “…a house divided cannot stand.”    Do you see now why Obama so admires Lincoln?  I do, and it’s certainly not what you think it might be.  This man is looking to divide the country so he can take control that much faster.  If he delays too long, people will catch on to what he's up to. And THAT's what all the fuss is about.
