A boring judicial nominee hearing is a beautiful thing.
There should never be fireworks at Supreme Court nominee hearings anyway. To protect and uphold the Constitution is a pretty straightforward task, don't let Congress or POTUS shred it to pieces. Yet the right was annoyed by not getting Sotomayor to answer questions that would show her liberal viewpoints, and the left is starting to feel a bit edgy on how much she is for "the cause" because Sotomayor stuck to strict legal terminology and theory when answering questions.
I could not ask for more.
I really don't care what her views are if she is humanly able to squelch them in favor of upholding the Constitution. Heck if she never makes news again for the rest of her career as a Justice, America should be thrilled. That means the Court is leaving legislating up to legislators, who believe me do not need any help. I hope one day Sotomayor is a Jay-Walking question that some UCLA grad student makes a fool of themselves on.
Isn't that a measure of greatness for a Justice?
