Lindsey Graham was consistently one of the harshest questioners yet he voted for both Sotomayor and Kagan (one of the few Republicans to do so).

So if all previous Supreme court justices were all women and then a man for the first time is confirmed who would be ignorant enough to suggest that the new male justice isn't going to see things from a new and fresh perspective? Not that the man's personal experiences are the only ones that count but he would most like see things a bit differently; not to say radically so but just differently. The bottom line is that she must be just, fair, and consistent and I'm confident that she will be. Now Kavanaugh went on a partisan rant, imagine if she had done that!

The evaluation of Sotomayor's "temperament" is likely at LEAST partially driven by sexism. I wonder if the same behavior, questions, or "temperament" displayed by a man, would be considered "STRONG", "commanding", competent, etc., but from a woman, is seen as described by War Monger Lindsey Graham.

#1 NOW IS A PERFECT TIME TO TAKE A LOOK AT *TERM LIMITS FOR ALL FEDERAL JUDGES *THE REAL-ISSUE CONCERNING SUPREME COURT JUSTICES = 3/4 OF A CENTURY FOR ONE MIND-SET ON A BENCH IS JUST TOO LONG!!! This is predicated on the answer to the question: Why are POLITICIANS from both parties clamoring so fervently to nominate Justices to all of the Federal Court benches? The answer to that question provides a clear understanding of how Americans have come to view our Federal Judges, and that is, as an arm of each political party, respectively. And the main follow-through on this fact is that Judges these days are more-than-willing to issue partisan rulings these days. This is in fact, realized, in the many rulings that have been issued from the various benches, from the lower Courts, right up through the Applet Courts, and through to the Supreme Court of these Lands. Just look at the resent Florida Court ruling on the "restoration of felon's right's to vote in elections. Consider the referendum-vote of the people of Florida, who voted overwhelming to give those rights back to those felons who have served their time for crimes committed." The Governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis, in his plight to manipulate the voter-ranks in the 2020 election, devised a plan to withhold the restoration of those felon's rights by arbitrarily imposing the requirement that those felons must pay back any fines before being able to vote. Moving through the court system, the claims of those felons, that this was not the People's Will, was dismissed by (Republican favored) Applet Judges, in favor of the voter-suppressing Republican Governor. This sort of ruling is plainly clear that Federal Judges are becoming increasingly partisan with their rulings. This could come back to find the Republican ranks on the other side of such future partisan rulings. So this is the solution: "We need to find a way to take partisanship out of our judicial system, the way it was intended in the first place. We need Term Limits for our Federal Judges, and a reform of the process of which they are appointed to the Benches" I believe, with the modern political climate, it will be impossible to solve, that is, within the process justices are appointed today. I believe the American People would be better served if our Judges were VOTED onto the benches by both branches of the government: House and the Senate. Most importantly, I believe LIFE APPOINTMENTS to the Bench is severely problematic for the Republic. Three quarters of a century could go by, having a partisan Justice sitting on the bench skewing rulings that only make sense to a small number of American Citizens. This has to change if we are to have a better system of government. The course we are on now will only render the US looking more and more like Belarus of today.

Lindsey Graham needed to let her speak! Typical old man that asks women questions only to cut them off and not allow them to have their own voice. Lindsey Graham had an agenda with his questions. He had no interest in hearing what Justice Sotomayor had to say. And you also have to consider that the comments made by Lawyers by her could have been influenced by 1) Lawyers that have lost cases that are bitter 2) Old lawyers that are sexist and can't stand to see a woman in charge
