One issue that has emerged from the always-biased, political hearings for
Sotomayor is the contention that a judge's decision can be/or at least should
be, made without being biased by personal history, experience, political
leanings, etc. She stressed this, while the Republicans want to say
and was not
allowed to let that knowledge influence my decision.
Cheers,
Karl W.
