This has nothing to do with her race. You are no one to be speaking of racism. You are one of the worst racist I have ever seen.
Hahaha I wish this forum had a zoom option and I could see you blush on that post.

Uhhhh, does Suzianne not interject race into every thread, every issue, every post? Big a big guy,, say, yes, you have a point.
Geez O Petey.
Seems Biden was on to race by announcing in advance that the first requirement ( ignoring having a feel for the constitution) was that his choice would be a black person. What is wrong with these people.

I suppose any answer but "A device for carrying babies" wouldn't have satisfied right wingers.
I'd have settled for "an adult human female", but as least she seems to acknowledge it should have something to do with biology.

There's clearly a dispute about this in our society, illustrated clearly in new bathroom laws and transgender athletes in sports that might make it to SCOTUS.

Instead of defining it prior to hearing oral arguments, she deferred to biology. I don't understand what conservatives don't like about her answer.


Haha and today I see Cruz asking her if he could self identify as Asian.
😀 😉 😀

One thing is that the other 8 justices will have to spar with her throughout her tenure as she laces her comments with opinions that are, shall we say, concepts with which they are not familiar. Outside the realm of her duties as a judge.....guardian and interpreter of the constitution . That is it. But it won't be IT for her. Do you agree? Do you think she will stay between the rails? I don't.
They will take a lunch break during discussions, go to the cafeteria, and say...'what in the hell!!!??"

To be fair Joe, the word 'woman' is nowhere to be found in the Constitution, so it's outside the realm of her duties as a judge to define it.

She may find like minded souls in Kagan and the wide Latina.

Not a bad point, there should be no mention of race, sex, disability, marriage status on any goobermint literature, before the state and before the law all should be equal.

Right well just because it's not mentioned doesn't mean it's not to be legislated. That'd be silly.

It was irrelevant for a SCOTUS nomination hearing though.
