"Loud, boisterous, in-your-face"

"Fox News Latino"?  The dissonance almost hurts the ears.  But Fox News does indeed host such a website, and I have to give them some credit--I read a short news piece there that was reassuring and energizing. 

Justice Sotomayor returned to her alma mater Princeton University and spoke to an audience of 1400 female alumni.  During the conversation, she apparently described herself (using the terms in the title of this entry) as most similar in temperament to Antonin Scalia.  And thank goodness!!  The progressive-liberal wing of the Supreme Court has so needed a voice like hers.  When I voted for President Obama, what I wanted most was strong stewardship over any Supreme Court vacancies that might arise, and on that he has fully delivered.
