Franken Blasts Supreme Court During Sotomayor Vote

http://minnesotaindependent.com/40470/fran...

Al Franken spewed fire and Amy Klobuchar threw brimstone this morning at the Senate Judiciary Committee's vote on Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Minnesotans joined 10 other Democrats and one Republican in approving the nominee, but not before Franken raked the current Court and Klobuchar decried bias against women on the bench.

Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor has picked up the endorsement of the Senate Judiciary Committee. This nomination is making noise and people and people are anxiously awaiting news from the Senate hearings about "Wise Latina" judge Sonia Sotomayor, nominee for the Supreme Court of the United States. Currently, the Senate committee handling Sonia Sotomayor hasn't confirmed her to the bench, but approved her to be voted on. In other words, they voted on whether or not she should be voted on. It seems to take payday loans at least to understand how these things work. She's been accused of being an activist judge, which is a code word for when a judge makes decisions that are legally valid that conservatives don't like, like backing civil rights, for instance. At any rate, Sonia Sotomayor won't need unsecured loans if she does take the Bench. http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2009/07/28/sonia-sotomayor-approved/
