Obama court pick puts spotlight on Sessions <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31016811/" target=_top>http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31016811/</a> <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>... <BR> <BR>Kennedy, D-Mass., back then said Sessions was a "throwback to a shameful era." Two Republicans, including Specter, joined Democrats led by then-Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., to defeat the nomination. <BR> <BR>... <BR> <BR>At a hearing this month for one of President Barack Obama's lower court nominees, Sessions said he may have been wrong on a few of President Bill Clinton's appointments, and he has left open the possibility that he could even support Sotomayor. <BR> <BR>But he says she first must explain "serious problems," such as comments she made at a law seminar that federal appellate courts "make policy." He also is insisting that Republicans have plenty of time to examine her record. <BR> <BR><!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote> <BR> <BR>Interesting turn of events. This lady is going to get a thorough going over with her remarks. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by Bob_2 on May 30, 2009)

Interesting, Obama now bipartisan regarding Sotomayor nomination when he <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>As a senator, Obama supported a failed attempt by Democrats to stall President George W.

Sotomayor and Michelle Obama, similar identity crisis at Princeton, and Michelle not sorting her's out until her husband's campaign: <BR> <BR><blockquote><hr size=0><!-quote-!><font size=1><b>quote:</b></font><p>For a spell during the Democratic primaries in 2008, Michelle Obama appeared in danger of being cast as a radical, someone whose patriotism was in doubt after she said that she'd first come to "really love" America during the campaign. <BR> <BR> <BR>Michelle Obama retreated to a more traditional spousal role, but she also appeared to benefit from the broad judgment that her politics weren't all that radical, her exploration of her identity wasn't that hard for most Americans to grasp.<!-/quote-!><hr size=0></blockquote> <BR> <BR> <BR><a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0509/23074_Page3.html" target=_top>http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0509/23074_Pa ge3.html</a> <BR> <BR> <BR>Read whole article to see similar experience at Princeton of Sotomayor and Michelle Obama. Has Sotomayor concluded her identitity crisis yet??? or will it happen in the Supreme Court if confirmed???
