Well, thank goodness for that! As we ALL know, the ABA is only looking out for the best interests of the American people.

DIf they had actually reviewed her record, and counted the overturned decisions, there is no question that she is not qualified. She is clearly a racist besides. I blame Obama for this one, and I will be holding this against him next election.

But the GOP begs to differ. They have different types of benchmarks and yardsticks with which to measure Sotomayors credentials. Politics will be a large part of it.

The goal of Conservatism is to prevent the nation from solving any of its problems. They are opposed to every action by government, unless it is to rescue our underacheiving CEOs from their own lackwit blunders.

The goal of Conservative judges is to strengthen the controlling hand of global corporations and the wealthy class over our society. They even went so far as to overturn the 2000 election.

Conservatism must be eliminated from our society. It is a form of intellectual alzheimer's.

why even allow comments on this woman? of course she will be confirmed–the left has a majority–they can do what they want–she won't have the respect of the supreme court judges. They just overturned a very important decision of hers. Not exactly starting out well with her peers.

I wonder if that Lawyers Group is a bunch of leftist lawyers from Columbia or Harvard pondering the meaning of is? It is obvious from Sotomayors comments and actions that she is race biased and it has effected her judgment in her cases. All Americans deserve Equal treatment under the law, if you have the money to afford it that is! White America just wants reciprocity of unbiased treatment under the law, even if it is contradictory to the biased views of minorities.

Big deal. So long as you're a liberal who supports trial lawyers sucking the life blood out of the country, the ABA will certify that you're Duke of Windsor. Absolutely meaningless.

wow lawyers approving of lawyers,,, every wonder why the last president that was not a lawyer was Eisenhouser,, wow,,,,why would a lawyer want a job in DC for such small wages,, wow,, makes you think,,, what do you call 10000. lawyers at the bottom of the ocean,, a good start

She is probably the most qualified nominee for the Supreme Court in the last 50 years. The Republicans will whine and complain that she is an activist. Republicans really like activist justices; it's activist Democratic justices they abhor.

My county has just declared an open season on lawyers and the lines for a hunting license are enormous!

Governor Mark Sanford also approves of Socialist Latinas with empathy ....any Republicans blasting him?

Why would anyone be surprized. Obama is going to oppose any attempt to reform laws which would place a cap on stupid law suits.

@ Tom in CA, who said "but the Senators of the Grand Obstructionism Party will hurl their mud and venom at her."

Judging by the smell, it's not mud that gaggle of angry monkeys is hurling...

Apperently those lawyers are not republicans.

Ooooooooooo... the ABA approves!!! YAY YAY YAY!

What's the difference between a dead skunk in the road and a dead lawyer in the road?

The dead skunk has skid marks in front of it.

If reverse racism is a qualification, then yes, she's well-qualifed.

so if the G-No-P members call the ABA notation biased because she gets a "well-qulaified" then Alito and Roberts are also unqualified since they got the same

As far as the ABA is concerned, any lawyer who hasn't actually been disbarred is "well qualified."

So when do the party hacks start arguing that the ABA is liberally biased, despite that the ABA gave the same ratings to Roberts and Alito?

You'd guess this would shut up bloated bullfrogs like Rush on whether Sotomayor is qualified for the job, but I'm not holding my breath.

Just seat her. This is old news.

the ABA's "highest possible rating" didn't get Judge Bork through; it is thrown out the window when special interest politics is involved - just ask Joe Biden on Supreme Court nominee interviews.

..., but the Senators of the Grand Obstructionism Party will hurl their mud and venom at her. This will increase the depth of the dark hole that they find themselves in.

get this drawn out process done
