President Obama was quick out of the box to defend his appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court, Judge Sonia Sotomayor for having mispoken (“Im sure she would have restated it”) after her quotes reveal race based preferences.

The Sotomayor quote in 2001:

“I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.”

Americans demand a Supreme Court Justice who is colorblind NOT one who overtly promotes race-conscious remedies under the law. If a white man had said what Judge Sotomayor had, then he would have been branded a racist and his nomination would have to be withdrawn.

Judge Sotomayor will have to answer questions at her confirmation hearing on whether she can be an unbiased Justice who will be able to apply the law to ALL Americans without regard to color or race.
