Supreme Court Nominee Sotomayor: Unfit

The following is a news release by a Pro-Life advocacy group in response today to the Pro-Death President’s nomination of another “far left ideologue” to a key position and lifetime appointment. Again, the opposition media (ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, etc.) will try to paint her as some type of moderate. There was no hesitation on the part of leftist media, to call Judge Alito, an “ultra conservative.” But then when did the opposition media ever play fair?

Operation Rescue vows to oppose Sotomayor who wrongly believes, “Courts create social policy.”

Washington, DC – President Barack Obama has nominated Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U. S. Supreme Court as a replacement for retiring Justice David Souter. Operation Rescue will oppose Sotomayor’s nomination as being unfit for the nation’s highest court.

“Just as Obama has attempted to abuse the process of law in reshaping America to the far left, so too Sonia Sotomayor believes in the abuse of judicial authority having stated that courts can create social policy,” said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman. “This philosophy dangerously overreaches the duties of the judicial branch and flies in the face of the separation of powers doctrine.”

“Sonia Sotomayor is far left ideologue that blurs the lines between the legislature and judiciary and will surely be a rubber stamp for Obama’s radical abortion agenda, which is opposed by the majority of Americans.”

Below is a brief video clip showing Judge Sotomayor’s comments relating to judicial social activism.

I also agree with Attorney Jay Sekulow regarding Sotomayor’s nomination, he stated, “We're hopeful that the Members of the Senate will ask the tough questions about her judicial philosophy (judicial social activism) and temperament when the confirmation hearings get underway this summer.”

Republican and conservative Senators should contest this nomination with as much vigor as the leftists contested Bork, Thomas, Alito and Roberts.
