¡Viva America!

October 15, 1991. By a Senate vote of 52–48, Clarence Thomas was confirmed to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. What conceivably could have been an incredible day in and for America--the confirmation of a black Supreme Court justice--was marked by the darkness [pun intentional, thanks] that is this enigmatic man's soul. As a so-called "historically underrepresented minority" in these here states, I believe Clarence Thomas is a complete and total bust. I could go on and on but lets just say I'm no fan. I would prefer the guy who played Cooter on The Dukes of Hazard to be in Thomas' seat. Seriously, Ben L. Jones. He can even drive the General Lee to work. Seriously, I'd prefer Todd Palin. For reals.

But, today, nearly 18 years later, by a Senate vote of 68-31, Sonia Sotomayor was confirmed to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and John Roberts have some formidable company in the package of a brilliant "historically underrepresented minority." Thank you black Muslim non-American socialist president. If you do nothing else, your presidency is officially a success in my book thanks to the nomination and confirmation of Justice Sotomayor. Remember my mantra in 1999, 2003, and 2007: "It's the Supreme Court stupid!"

I know, I know, the conservatives used the weakest, most racist, most mopetarded argument to oppose Justice Sotomayor: she may use her personal experiences to shape her opinions. What?! If she didn't, I'd be gravely concerned since EVERYONE ELSE before, during, and after her ON EARTH did, does, and will do the very same thing. On the Supreme Court or the basketball court. Hello, it's called human nature. Human nature must not be part of the creationist curriculum, right? I mean I know Roberts looks like a robot but he's not a for real robot. Remember how he tried to trick the black Muslim non-American socialist president into not saying the presidential oath of office correctly but the black Muslim non-American socialist president made him do it right? Remember that? No robot, Johnny. He's a human like you and me. He not only chokes under pressure sometimes and makes historically embarrassing mistakes in front of global audiences, but he also uses his personal experiences to shape his opinions. Everything John Roberts and Sonia Sotomayor ever experienced or learned in their lives (and in their fancy schools) becomes part of their cognitive make up and, yeah, it shapes how they interface with the world.

I could go on and on but lets just say I'm a huge fan. Of Sotomayor and of America. Anyway, I just wanted to say today is an incredible day in and for America.

We did good.

¡Viva America!
