Gasp--is she...um....not married?

In the things I've read so far about Sotomayor, I don't find that she is or ever was married. And, you can bet the GOP knows that too and is scared shitless as they hold their breath. Why??

..because they have already had their talking head, hate mongering, lunatics do the "race" baiting and the hinting that woman are dumb bimbos. It will only be a matter of time before the "mouths" the GOP would love to cement shut pull this out and wave it as a bloody shirt. How long before "wink, wink" she is a lesbian is hinted at; or she is so obnoxious that no man wanted her, etc. If that happens (and it will)they are soooo dead meat with the American electorate that they might as well find another country to move their flying circus to! They better find a big roll of duct tape and fast!

But she divorced. She was engaged to someone else for a while but they broke it off.

..but I just about spit my drink on the screen seeing your "thingie" on the bottom of your post. I don't know why that cracked me up but it did. And I had a cat like that, flew it half way across the country. It ran away a year later and a year after that a neighbor back where I used to live saw it hanging around the neighborhood again---half a continent away.

and apparently engaged again once after that, but the marriage apparently didn't take place.

So no problem ... or less of a problem than Diane Wood would have been: she's been married three times, currently to a kazillionaire neurosurgeon.

let them do it!!

I think race is a big part of it but I think that they are attacking her because she is a woman a successful woman.

By attacking her they are attacking all working women. This is going to be spiraling downward for the Repugs.....

She spoke up for gays who were being harassed on campus. One of her public policy professors, Jameson Doig, recalls that she also spoke out against police abuse.

"Police brutality was an area that was of greater concern to those who are familiar with poorer areas in New York. She was an articulate person in expressing concerns about that kind of misbehavior and in suggesting ways that one could reduce problems of police and public housing violence," Doig said.

As a junior, Sotomayor helped design a course called "History and Politics of Puerto Rico," which she described as a framework for evaluating the U.S. territory's problems.

She devoted her 169-page senior thesis to modern Puerto Rican history, conceding her bias in favor of its legal independence but asserting that her conclusions were based on her research, not her leanings. It was dedicated to, among others, her "husband-to-be, Kevin -- for the love and support" and for teaching her "to approach life with an open mind."

She and Kevin Noonan were married after graduation. They divorced seven years later.

divorced, no kids.

Got a great life, from what I read. Very involved, lots of friends, gives a whole lot back to the community. A really good woman.............

wink wink, and flying circus. The duct tape is interesting, but I don't think we have same interpretations or context.

Your post is full of other things, bloody shirt, cement shut, mouths, hold their breath.

So from a totally unrelated point of view, your post was interesting strictly from the multitude of correlations it contained.

:shrug:

about Bristol Palin - daughter of an "Abstinence-only" pushing Republican governor ...

and promised to not use her naughty parts again till she is in a marriage to a good Christian man.

Didn't you get the memo?

has gotten her some pills for her "cycle" and that because her "cycle" is so terrible she needs to take them, they aren't birth control pills they are to control PMS if they are ever found. I also guarantee you that Mama Bear is making sure those pills are taken on a routine basis.

Believe me, I feel for this girl. I don't like the fact that her sex life is being discussed but her Mother has trotted her out to do this in support of the Fundie cause.

I can only hope in a few years, she manages to strike it out on her own.

that way she can still have fun and not have to worry about any more screaming kids.

Just like everything else they are trying right now...they are confused. What worked 20 years ago isn't working anymore.
