Dang Fees, I don't know if this is a right/left issue but a "correct" issue. I don't want "any" judge ruling the highest court in the land based on anything other than the law as it is written. I don't want them ruling based on their personal beliefs or their right-wing/left-wing agenda. That's not the purpose of the Supreme Court.

As you can see from all of the reports about Judge Sotomayor's previous rulings, she is an "activist judge". That's not the way to change things here in the United States. We have a legislative branch for a reason. If you want laws changed (take your pick: Abortion, Homosexual Marriage, expansion of affirmative action, etc., etc.) then go to the legislative branch and get the laws changed or amended. Purposely ruling against current written law and/or "interpreting" law any other way than it was written, for the purpose of furthering your own agenda is the exact reason that our government was created with 3 branches. That is what an activist judge is.

Of course, if your one of those America haters who thinks everything about the U.S. needs to be changed... Then you would love her!
I mean who really wants to go through all of that trouble to have the people actually vote on stuff! that's sooo last century!

SO MUCH FOR BLIND JUSTICE!!
