President Justice Rush Limbaugh May Be Willing to Pardon Sonia Sotomayor
The leader of the GOP and president of Real America, Rush Limbaugh, may have changed his mind about Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, if she's lucky. (Incidentally, how did this woman become a Supreme Court nominee? President Limbaugh didn't nominate her. Must've been an administrative mix-up.)
Here's your conditional pardon, "Ms." "Sotomayor"…
A week after calling Sonia Sotomayor a "racist" in reference to her 2001 "wise Latina" remarks, conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh said Wednesday he's now open to supporting President Obama's Supreme Court nominee.
"I can see a possibility of supporting this nomination if I can be convinced that she does have a sensibility toward life in a legal sense," Limbaugh said on his radio program.
The standard in these cases is usually clear and convincing evidence, but for something this important it will probably be bumped up to reasonable doubt, so I hope Sotomayor's defense team is ready to persuade Supreme Court Justice Limbaugh…
Meanwhile, Obama officials have said the president has not directly asked Sotomayor how she might rule in abortion rights cases, but California Democrat Dianne Feinstein — who met with Sotomayor Tuesday — said that the judge believes strongly in legal precedent.
"I believe she has a real respect for precedent and … if that is really true then I will agree with her, and I believe it is," said Feinstein, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Good for you, but I'm not sure if I care. Who the hell is Dianne Feinstein, anyway? Is she on Sirius?

Who actually listens to Rush or Newt? I mean, really, who cares what these hate mongerers have to say. It seems that the onlt things they have to say are derisive and meant to instill fear in those that follow them. They are two people that no one with any measurable i.q. should ever listen to.
Rush Limbaugh has precisely the same qualifications as Joseph Goebbels: rants vociferously; propagandizes without apology; incites the worst in listeners; appeals most to the least informed and least analytical; actually thinks he's a patriot; caters shamelessly to the power brokers and billionaires. The man is irrelevant as the current far right Republican Party. Still, America has to be vigilant of such strident and hate-filled voices, especially during hard times. The Nazis Party fed off of the anger and hopelessness of the Great Depression.
i have come to the conclusion that rush,n the rest of the looney tune characters on fox news,including the past president n his croneys,are actually liberals in disguise ! i think they set out with a long-term plan to make all conservatives and republicans look and sound like uneducated liars and crooks! bear with me on this ok. think about it,first they gave voice to the moral majority,then power,then they gave voice and power to the retarded right,then proceeded to stupidify the nation and start taking our rights and our integrity!no political party would do such a stupid self-destructive things!!!!it has to be sabatoge!!!!no one really believes that elizabeth hasselback,rush,newt,rove,cheney n the retards at fox news represent the republicans,please!!!they are tooo stupid,embarrasing,and well i could go on but you get the idea!!!these people forgot about the seperation of church n state abd if true americans n republicans they will seperate church n state!these are liberals making people fear republicans n conservatives by embracing religion in politics!
It's a ploy to fill the Supreme Court with racists to placate the repubican–sorry, my "L" key doesn't work–
Is this an attempt at reverse psychology?
Perhaps a Rush is truly open-minded and only has the best interest of all his subjects in mind?
Or is Sonia harboring some deep dark secret ala the gent she may replace?
Stay tuned…
