A homosexual served in the Navy? Incredible.

How the **** can you vote Republican knowing they actively pursue discrimination like this?

Right wingers enjoy screwing over people.

Why not? Did Obama say that he nominated her just because she was a latina? If you think that is wrong, shouldn't you be more upset about this?

[BCVB9SOc]

Who were the abstentions and why?

[Scukonah]

To be fair, I don't think this is tremendously different from when Obama nominates a latina to SCOTUS just to say he nominated a latina, etc.

Bad behavior doesn't excuse bad behavior.

Nominating a Latina is equivalent to refusing to nominate a homosexual. Only in HC-land!

It is, in fact, because ensuring a latina is nominated is the same as ensuring that no other kind of person is nominated.

This is a non point. If you choose A, B can't be chosen. AND? AND???

[CefGemYAffews]

How is this discrimination at all? No one wants an activist for anything, much less anal sex, sitting on the bench. Their job is to be impartial.

So you agree that no Christian should be involved, then.

Activism goes both ways.

The concern is that confirming this judge would lead to wanton gay orgies in courtrooms, impeding the swift application of justice.

[AlabamaBoyz]

In Obama's case, he's refusing to nominate people who aren't latina.

Elena Kagan?

[KneefeZes]

Then you might as well say "Obama is refusing to nominate people who aren't named Sotomayor."

[DoctoNilsonDen]

It is, in fact, because ensuring a latina is nominated is the same as ensuring that no other kind of person is nominated.

You have no proof that Obama rejected all other potential appointees on the basis of them not being latinos. You are no better than someone who claims Obama won the election because of his skin color.

Wouldn't that be a reason to nominate a hot lesbian and have cameras in the court?

You really need to stop watching Go Daddy ads.

YOU.

The cut of your jib.

I like it.

Perhaps.

This is the dumbest thing I've read in my entire time on Apolyton. It's not even clear what you are saying, in the sense that I wonder if English is your first langauge. There is a big difference between an activist, meaning someone who wants to bring about social change, and a person with an opinion (like a Christian) who believes things ought to be a certain way personally but would still uphold the law over his personal beliefs. Really, that is easily the dumbest thing I have seen anyone post here. I am kind of speechless and really, really disappointed in your intellectual ability. Stick to hockey and discussing vehicles.

In the event that this is not entirely a troll, make no mistake - Christians are activists. Look at all of these pieces of legislation they keep bringing up to try to force other people to live by their archaic ideals.

Any Christian who was an outspoken pro-life advocate would not be nominated to any judgeship. The homo in the article up top at least got considered.

You keep acting dumber, as if you have recently been in a fall.
