You're still on that stupid claim aren't you? I may disagree with saden often when it comes to politics, but I believe he's pretty intelligent and educated on such matters.

You, on the other hand...it amazes me how nearly every time you post in a thread about politics how ignorant you are. Just stuns me. Where do you come off claiming that Republicans hate women in power? What proof do you have?

By the way, do you remember which party was sitting in the White House when the first female Supreme Court Judge was selected?

Do the names Elizabeth Dole, Margaret Spellings, Elaine Chao, Gale Norton, Christine Todd Whitman, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, Kay Bailey Hutchison, Margaret Chase Smith, Kay Orr (country's first female governor), Jodi Rell, Jeannette Ranking (first congresswoman), Marsha Blackburn, or Jean Schmidt ring a bell at all?

I think you mean well and it's great you like to be involved in the whole political process...but it's just not your forte. I think I could speak Aramaic more eloquently than you could speak politics. You're probably better off just sitting on the sidelines and letting saden and 70Chip debate each other

Oh, if I could only be so arrogant

It's stuff like that that keeps me for the most part out of the political threads. I love to read the arguments, and both sides of the aisle have some very intelligent posters around here. Occasionally I chime in, but largely I lurk. Sometimes I have to put my fist in my mouth. I know if I get started I'll spend untold hours on this site that I just don't have.

Anyway, I'm not going to criticize Sotomayor because Obama and Co. warned us critics to be "exceedingly careful." I have nightmares of Rahm-bo standing over my bed with a knife.
