Luckovich nails it: Sotomayor is making the GOP tools look dumber than they are

1. Not necessarily "dumber than they are", but every bit as dumb. nt

2. Actually she's just skilled at bringing the dumb to the surface

They weer dumb before they ever heard of Sotomayor.

3. Her dignity and steel spine

are shaming those asswipes. She's doing a great job, and she's shining them on, and they're too fucking stupid to realize how they look to the rest of the country.

Of course, their constituents LOVE this shit because they are, for the most part, asswipes, too..................

4. Her dignity and gravitas highlights the lack of the same from her foolish, childish inquisitors.

I am so throughly impressed with her.

5. That's questionable -- they're likely dumber than she makes them look.

But she sure does a good job at exposing as much of their dumbness as she does.

6. and you want to talk looking bad ...

I don't think that Spectre has got the hang of being a Dem ... today he sounded like he was forgetting that he was supposed to be a mole in the Dem party ...

7. Give the Republican Senators a break

They're used to dealing with "legacy" Ivy Leaguers like George W. Bush. Talking to a woman who got into Princeton on her own moxie, graduated summa cum laude and then went on to a distinguished legal and judicial career is just so far outside their expectations, it’s a wonder they can even string two words together in Judge Sotomayor’s presence. Totally discombobulated, the poor dears.

8. ..now let's get back to that "wise Latina" comment

I don't think they discussed that one enough...
