A commenter picked this up. It is curious, unless there was an earlier hearing reference to Perry Mason having lost just one case, despite that not being accurate. I couldn't find a reference to an earlier mention via Google. If it's there, than this is nothing.
But, for all the silliness of it, Sotomayor did start to answer Franken's Mason question before he finished asking it, or even mentioned what one case he was going to ask about. Hmm. Did she know he was going to interject some levity there? If so, it makes his one spotlight moment scripted, just like SNL. Watch her start answering early.
Dan;
Of course she did.
What, do you think for a second that our next clown of the supreme court is not contacted by Commander Zero ?
Sweet Bah-Jeezus, my man, they be feeding her whilst she answers the MOST serious of questions.
Oh, it is all good.
She's a PR.
WE good.

Of course she did.
Nobody in this administration can be trusted in public without a script. What I've been wondering is: Who's writing the scripts?

There was a question earlier (I think the first day, see Powerline) about why "Perry Mason" inspired her to become a prosecutor when Mason beat him in every show. Later, it was realized that the prosecutor had in fact won one case against Mason.

"Conspiracy theory # ?"
Let's see:
-The Whitey Tape is coming out any day now.
- Barack Obama had anonymous coke filled gay sex in the back of a limo with a totally credible convicted check forger.
- Obama murdered all the gay men he slept with at his former Chicago church.
- He is actually an Indonesian citizen.
- Scratch that he's Kenyan.
- No wait, Hawaii wasn't a state in 61. Wait, it was? Never mind, he's Kenyan.
- Obama's father was Malcolm X.
- Bill Ayers wrote Dreams for My Father.
- McCain actually lost the election because ACORN registered Mickey Mouse 8,553,671 times.
- Obama is a closet Muslim just waiting to impose Sharia law.
- Michelle Obama was disbarred.
The shit is endless and the mongoloid mouthbreathing wingnuts believe all these things simultaneously. They know they have absolutely zero chance of beating him, so they hope and pray to disqualify him. Like a boxer getting his ass kicked bitching about the weight of his opponent's gloves.

A PR??? Either you are a Jet dancer in West Side Story or you don't deal with the brown folks too often.

Dan, do you ever take a minute to consider how absolutely absurd and ridiculous something is before posting it?
Unreal what gets y'all going....

It's true. Obama, Sotomayor and Franken got together to rig the hearing. Word is Sotomayor wanted to work on questions / answers for abortion, states rights, affirmative action, etc. But Franken and Obama were able to convince her the question of what episode Perry Mason lost was more important.
Guess they didn't have the internet handy to actually look up the answer. Hint - it was more than one.

"--- mongoloid... ---" ?
This from the same twerp who in the very next comment tries to point to some supposed inference to the future SCOTUS Justice Sotormayor's ethnicity?
Really? I thought you liberal progressive drones were programmed to be politically correct and not use terms like "mongoloid", which could be an offensive reference to Asian-Americans or Down's Syndrome suffers.
For shame, my woefully androgynously named fellow commenter.

Conspiracy theory"
ACORN had its hand in meddling with the election. Using convicted felons as voter registry workers, and bussing homeless people and/or felons around to be registered in multiple districts in areas allowing for early registration AND voting on the same day?
Vote early, vote often, was it?

And you don't think for an instant that Obama's muslim childhood doesn't have an influence on his thinking today, you are smoking something.
He *claims* to be a "christian", but I have yet to hear him make a public, Biblical confession of Christ Jesus as his Lord, much less acknowledging his salvation solely by the grace of God through faith in the Risen Son of God.
So far his love of socialism (whose true god is secular humanist statism) seems to bear greater witness than his mere church-going form of "christianity".

"Conspiracy theory"
Worse yet Brother Seek is that these asshats seem to forget their whole Tower 7 was a controlled demolition mantra, the evil Halliburton, going into Iraq for oil and a list of paraniod delusions longer than Slime's drug abuse record!
As far as those cute aluminum hats to ward off the microwave brain scans I think that comes from the leftist bizzaro world side of life!

Seekeronos -
I assume you also claim to be a "Christian"?
Do you feel/know you've done more to prove your claim?
Of course such confidence and arrogance would be contrary to the supposed teachings of the faith.
And yes, I would of course think that his "muslim childhood" had an influence on his thinking today.
I would think all aspects of his childhood did.
But do feel only his christian experiences were/are beneficial to him?
What's that 'hate the sin love the sinner' bit...how about hate/disagree with the policy without suggesting nefarious origins and intent?
Posted by: Mike2cents | Friday, July 17, 2009 at 12:41 PM
MikeNonSense is asking for trouble when he challenges Brother Seek on the issue of Christian faith. Many have tried, few have been prevailed!
But then these trolls would argue the cost of a free lunch!!!
As far as your Muslim Xerxes he claims to be Christian but bows to the Saudi leader and has avoided going to any church that didn't bash whitey, America or those pesky Jews!
And, back on track to the original post, how about it NoSense, Slime and the other Turfers was 9/11 an inside job or not? A view into the inner workings of the moonbat mind would be refreshing!

So does Brother Seek believe the Earth is 6000 years old?

"So does Brother Seek believe the Earth is 6000 years old? "
Ah the jew haters show-up to deny their maker exists, after all there can only be one, "the One", in their god hating little minds!!
So what about Tower 7 troll?
A little intellectual honesty for a change, I know it gets you off of Uncle Georgies script be hey, be bold and speak-up for yourself!
Posted by: SacTownMan | Friday, July 17, 2009 at 04:13 PM
I don't care about Tower 7. Don't hate Jews. Think Obama's simply a guy trying to do the best he can. And believe the Earth is far older the 6000 years. And anyone that believes the Earth is only 6000 years old is a crackpot.
Posted by: Nishner | Friday, July 17, 2009 at 04:32 PM
So, seekeronos you sure did answer Jaime. The answer being yes, all the Mickey Mouse and Derek Jeter registrations stole the Presidential election. So did Acorn do this on behalf of Castro? Lee Harvey Oswald? The Romulans?
