Sotomayor Repeatedly Referenced ‘Wise Woman’ in Speeches

Posted on June 4, 2009

The White House excuse she misspoke just fell apart! Not once, not twice, but lots of times!

A draft version of a October 2003 speech Sotomayor delivered at Seton Hall University stated, “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would, more often than not, reach a better conclusion.” That is identical to her October 2001 remarks at the University of California, Berkeley that have become the subject of intense criticism by Republican senators and prompted conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh to label her “racist.”
In addition, Sotomayor delivered a series of earlier speeches in which she said “a wise woman” would reach a better decision. She delivered the first of those speeches in Puerto Rico in 1994 and then before the Women’s Bar Association of the State of New York in April 1999.
The summary descriptions of speeches Sotomayor provided indicated she delivered remarks similar to the 1994 speech on three other occasions in 1999 and 2000 during two addresses at Yale and one at the City University of New York School of Law.

She also owes over $400,000 to creditors! The confirmation might get fun after all!

    The $400K debt includes mortgage – no big deal, Since NYC is expensive place to buy a condo.

    Focus on the “Wise Latina vs Wise White” comments..
