I don't think she should be on the Supreme Court,but Im not Wise enoughe,or feminine enough for my opinion to be of any value. Maybe if all of us un-wise caucation males stayed home from work for a couple of weeks,America would be a better place to live. Oh and Maybe we should quit shopping and eating out too during our sabatical from being in public,that may help America be better too. After all we are just not wise enough to make important decissions about things. Maybe we should stay home for a couple of months,and let the wise people of society take care of things like policing the streets and fitghting fires and performing emergency medical rescues.Thanks

Scripture has many pornographic dirty stories. Lot has a son by each of his VIRGIN daughters. King David as Peeping Tom watches a nude married woman as she bathes. He's the king so he has sex with her after arranging to have her husband killed. He makes her pregnant, and that's a sin so God kills the baby. For old men, there's the tale of Abraham having a baby with the household help and then later, with his very old wife. From the servant's baby comes the hero of the Muslim faith, an insult that still inspires jihad. If the Bible were sold as a paperback thriller, it would be fitting to have a cover showing bare-breasted women being raped. Publishers of religious literature have made trillions of dollars by selling stuff that doesn't seem to be recognized as porn. Puzzling over other fiction, I wondered why a novel that glorified a slave-holding Rebel family would be a best-seller and movie. Then I remembered the marital rape scene, with the husband's intoxication somehow excusing him--the same theme in the Lot sex-crime tale. We need more science labs and computers in public schools. If religious parents want porn for their kids, let them share their Bibles.

we ain't gona put with her racist remarked according to history if it wouldn't be for the white man that fight the indian, the Brit, the French, the Mexican we wouldn't have this land and this country to begin with, we should thanks the white man who created this nation and i think this Latina is really a racist ban her ass from the supreme court judge for ever. I have alot of Latina GF in HS, and College but they never make a n racist comment like this old stinky women that motor mouth of her keep going around say bad thing to white people. The people who don't wana get the house catch on fire shouldn't go around and set flame on other person home. If u say u truely love America and you vote with her then shame on you. I'm a truely patriot as it can be, Hispanic Women and Black Men condition right now are throwing the economic of CA into the thrash they will cary their shame to with them to eternity if they ain't fixing it.

In 2012 we must vote for Governor Sarah Palin to become our President and Governor Mitt Romney to become our Vice President starting on January 20, 2013 , because of Governor Sarah Palin's and Governor Mitt Romney's superior right wing conservative philosophy. Governor Sarah Palin's and Governor Mitt Romney's superior right wing philosophy is shown in that they are pro God and Christianity, pro life, pro marriage; pro guns-second amendment, pro low taxes, pro low government spending; pro small government, pro unintrusive government, pro traditional and Judeo Christian values; pro Bible reading and prayer in our public schools, pro Christians schools and private education , pro private and free enterprise; pro military spending, anti arms agreements with Russia, pro creation; pro nuclear, pro conservative supreme court judges, pro American sovereignty; pro capitalism, anti communist, anti socialist; conservative on immigration, pro individual , and pro constitution
Thank You,

Catholic Biden had a lot to do with confirming Catholic Clarence Thomas. I saw Biden lead macho, disrespectful questioning of witness Anita Hill. Members of the committee rushed the process. To better understand what happened, I read Hill's book. It explains the way timing led to injustice. There's also a book that unfairly attacks her-- "The Real Anita Hill." Then there's another book--I don't have the name. it says that since the trial other women have come forward with statements about their experiences with him. They back up her under-oath testimony of his behavior. Ms. Hill is a female member of a "minority race," and so is the nominee. Most members of confirming committees are males who can't be pregnant--disqualifying them from making any judgments about abortion. They're not poor. They may say they can imagine what poor mothers do, but even if they can, they are not the nominee. She prepared herself to be a judge. It's a pleasure to watch her remind senators that it's inappropriate to ask how she'd vote on a case not yet before her.
