I wonder what Clarence Thomas has to say about her statement regarding her ethnicity and judgment.
I seem to recall Chuck Schumer stating that there is no need to rush through the vetting process with Alito. I see no reason to switch feet now. This person who may impact all of our lives for the next 3 or 4 decades should be properly examined and, if found wanting, shouldn't prompt the gender or race card backlash. I mean, I know it's not in fashion to be a white male these days but we were ONLY the very people who created this nation.
There is no reason to rush through the vetting process. But nor is there a reason to condemn her because shes latina, or knows that shes latina, or has experiences racism because she is latina and has pointed that out.
Its not in fashion to be a white male? I know...we are just so underprivileged these days. We barely have anyone in the Senate, or in the House, barely control any governorships, barely have anyone on the USSC, etc, etc, ad nauseum.
Yeah, she went to Yale Law School from what I understand, became a federal judge and is now nominated to the SCOTUS, I can see where racism has hampered her life and her career. Give me a break.
