The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth
Or, as we’re currently witnessing in the US, The Unqualified Shall Inherit The Earth.
Obama is a standard social-engineering ticker of boxes. Do we have enough females in the administration? Check. Enough minorities? Check. Enough advocates of illegal immigration, abortion and higher taxes? Check.
Do they have appropriate qualifications? Meh, you can’t have it all, and three out of four ain’t bad.
The latest person to ride the gravy-train of inherited genetics (this time, as with Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, because she’s female and Hispanic) is Sonia Sotomayor, who will soon take her place on the US Supreme Court.
Sotomayor, as if you couldn’t have guessed this, is fascinated with her own ethnicity and considers it to be of primary importance. As such, she finds discrimination everywhere, so is doubtless salivating at the prospect of imminent judicial activism to enforce change upon America.
Rather than blaming people for their own failures, Sodomayor, as with all the other non-entities on the Left, finds it far more rewarding and salient to instead blame their problems on US society (i.e. you and I).
Yawwwn. Boring. There is nothing more boring, in fact, than hearing people drone on about their ethnicity. It is so insular and self-centered. Are such short-sighted, narrowly concerned people really material fit for high office?
We might have the pleasure of getting rid of Obama (or at least neutering his omnipotence) in a few years time: Sotomayor, on the other hand, will be dragging us down for a long time to come.

Yep all the items I ticked off when commented on Souter at my blog.
Moonbat that is clueless on the Constitution – check.
Minority – check.
Young enough to stay on the court for a long time – check.
Let’s just pray that he doen’t get the chance to replace any conservative justices.

Why is it that everyone that is a so called “minority” are constantly referring to their ethnicity? I’m a member of the true minority in the US; Tax Paying, Worked Hard For What I Have, Educated, White Guy. Now there is a minority.
When will we everyone start referring to themselves as Americans and not X-American or Y-American?

Bane,
Totally with you. There is none more exploited now than the middle-class.
It’ll be another 6/7 years before I’m a US citizen, but when I am I’ll be an American – not a hyphenated-American.
On that day, I’m also going to buy myself a seersucker suit and a biga*s Stars and Stripes.
It’s gonna be awesome.

Track-A-’Crat,
Excellent, that’s the way it should be done and your attitude is in the right place.
Good Luck and an early Welcome Home, Bane
