I think he's trying to get Republicans to actually read that article.

Bait and switch.

Wow, I'm disappointed in Sotomayor. I hope conservatives don't read this and mock libs for corruption.

I'm disappointed too. We should hold these liberal entitled justices to some ethical standards.

What shocks me is that NPR reported on it. Sotomayor also belongs to an all women's club in NYC.
And even though the club is illegal, she justified her being a member.

Yet another egregious example. Should they be doing this?

Nobody should have a job which is appointed for life.

It’s too absurd to comprehend.
