Discussion: Grassley Compares Trump Judge Attacks To Sotomayor's 'Wise Latina' Remark

I’ll join you. The sun is shining. The birds are singing, Even the bees are happy today. Fuck these GOP morons. I got weeds to pull and lettuce to pick. But unlike you, I still like a good cussing when its called for…Makes me feel better for some reason. I know its a shortcut. Eh, if it offends anyone…oh well, fuck it.

Sotomayor’s point was that a diversity of personal backgrounds on the Supreme Court will make for more imaginative and humane decisions. In fact, she said this: “I […] believe that we should not be so myopic as to believe that others of different experiences or backgrounds are incapable of understanding the values and needs of people from a different group.”

On the other hand, what Trump is saying is that no judge who is of a different ethnic background or who disagrees with him politically can be unbiased toward him.

Sotomayor’s emphasis is on justice. Trump’s emphasis is on himself.

So yes, they are saying completely different things.

I’ve always pitied plants that were the victims of subjective judgments. Except cilantro.
It deserves whatever punishment the Gods may deliver upon it.

Grassley is proving himself to be a complete pig’s anus.

Yep. In other words, Sotomayor who was speaking about the life someone lived in part as a result of their heritage, and Trump, who was making a claim about attitudes ingrained because of who someone’s parents are, are saying almost diametrically opposite things.

But Grassley is of the New Republican Party that laughs at our silly reality-based thinking.

Oh, we can all move along now. Granny Grassley has weighed in with a GOP “moral equivalency” fail… and thus has taken his corn-fueled shit on the subject!

Game/Set/Match!

Again, why not just do you damned job and shut your idiotic piehole? Thanks! That’d be nice.

Here! Hear!

Seems Grassley on a day-to-day basis drops further into the pit he has dug for himself. Time the fine people of Iowa reconsider his usefulness as their U.S. Senator.

No kidding. Just because Republican Abraham Lincoln described our country as “dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal”, that doesn’t mean that we are all equal or that we should strive to treat everyone equally.

It means that Lincoln was soft.

Agreed. He certainly could have extended Sherman’s March by a year or two.

He’s not very good at his hatchet jobs. Maybe if he had more than just the handle…

Chuck Grassley and Trump are two of a kind, old white Racist Bigots. Time for both to be put to pasture.

The Grassley’s always stranger…

I just have one simple reaction: vomit.

My god what is more offensive how stupid most of the electorate is or how STUPID most of the GOP thinks the electorate is?
