Sotomayor reversed 60% by high court

[007]

How about Rush Limbaugh? Limbaugh's exact statement was: "She has been overturned 80% by the Supreme Court."

This clearly implies that 80% of her total decisions have been overturned by the Supreme Court. Limbaugh did not qualify his statement by saying something like, "of her decisions that have been taken up on appeal, 80% of them have been reversed." That omission was on purpose, of course. Limbaugh lives for the half truth.

ah, well, you must listen to Rush more than i do

I don't listen to Limbaugh. I don't listen to him because (1) I don't like him - he is obnoxiously offensive and (2) I don't agree with anything that he has said yet and don't expect to in the foreseeable future.

I listen to O'Reilly occasionally because, while I rarely agree with anything he says, I kind of like his personality.

If it makes you feel any better, I don't listen to Al Franken because I find him annoying. I won't find him annoying as a U.S. Senator, that's for damn sure.

By in large, radio talk show hosts, right or left, don't make it for me.

But this...

... would "make it for you" as a U.S. senator.

Yeah, you got some screwed up values there...

WTH?

Sotomayor reversed 60% by high court - Washington Times

380 cases. Five heard by the Supreme court. Three overturned. Twisted OP Kman. That is less than 1 percent. Unless you can come up with a better numbers for averages on reversed decisions it looks like there is not much to say here.

That's a 0.79 percent reversal rate. Big difference between 0.79 and 60. So are you saying Republicans are fucking liars?
