Sonia Sotomayor's Book Tells of Life's Struggles 14 Jan 2013 In a memoir to be published on Tuesday, Sonia Sotomayor writes of the chronic disease, troubled family relationships and failed marriage that accompanied her rise from a housing project in the Bronx to a seat on America's highest court. The first Hispanic and the third woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, the 58-year-old justice, appointed by President Barack Obama in 2009, describes the insecurities she has felt as a minority who benefited from racial remedies. She signed on to write the sweeping, 315-page book, "My Beloved World," early in her tenure. She received a $1.175 million book advance in 2010 from publisher, Alfred A. Knopf, according to financial disclosure records. Sitting down for a rare interview in her Supreme Court chambers, Sotomayor said that after being thrust into the public limelight with her nomination to the court, she felt the need for introspection to hold onto her identity. The court's nine justices, appointed for life, typically decline to sit for interviews or offer any personal observations related to cases. Book tours offer rare opportunities to draw them out on issues, even if only a little. < out > < out > < out > TROUBLED FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS She exudes the same energy when speaking on the phone or talking through the door to her assistant, often calling people "sweetie." Her chambers are spacious, bright and elegant, decorated with modern art on the walls. Her environs have not always been so pristine. She describes the difficulty of growing up with a father who was an alcoholic and a mother who was frequently absent. Diagnosed with diabetes at a young age, she wet the bed, fainted in church and learned to inject daily doses of insulin to regulate her blood sugar. Her father died when Sotomayor was nine, leaving a room full of drained liquor bottles hidden under his mattress, in jacket pockets and closets. While his death sent Sotomayor's mother into a state of grief, it was also a relief. Until then, her mother had worked long hours as a nurse to stay out of the house and avoid conflict. < out > < out > < out > VESTIGES OF DISCRIMINATION The book comes out as the Supreme Court is weighing a landmark case about the role of race in college admissions. Sotomayor was careful in the Reuters interview not to discuss current cases, but said there was value to affirmative action programs. "It's impossible to not recognize that the vestiges of discrimination take a long time to erase," she said. "It just doesn't happen overnight." But she also called affirmative action a "double-edged sword." She said some people still attribute her position on the court to affirmative action, based on her identity as a Latina justice. < out > < out > < out > Read Latest Breaking News from Newsmax.com http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/sotomayor-book-life-struggles/2013/01/14/id/471404#ixzz2I3PbyZZa Urgent: Should Obamacare Be Repealed?

If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
It DOES seem impossible for YOU to recognize discriminating against BETTER QUALIFIED whites in order to benefit your pathetic unqualified brown ass IS possible though,doesn't it,you piece of PC shit? Just exactly HOW is creating MORE LEGAL discrimination helping to end discrimination,you bleeping retard? I'll bet one of your other brain farts is screwing for virginity. But she also called affirmative action a "double-edged sword." She said some people still attribute her position on the court to affirmative action, based on her identity as a Latina justice. DUUUH! You admit this yourself and then wonder why people think this of you? I doubt you are smart enough to get a job driving a city bus based on your actual qualifications,and even that job may be too complex for you,

How about discriminating against better qualified blacks? Oh that's right, that never happened in US history, did it?
I bet you can't even name one,can you? On the other hand,*I* can,mindless puppet. Judge Janice Rogers Brown,who the Dims would never allow to even be nominated for a SC seat because she is a conservative who recognizes the inherent discrimination involved with Affirmative Action. She is,in fact,one of the brightest legal minds in the country,and a dedicated American and follower of the Bill of Rights.

Let's start with Rosa Parks, dumb ass. WOW! She was actually smart enough to get on bus all by herself! No wonder you admire her. Maybe one day you will be able to figure out how to get on a bus by yourself,too!

He most certainly wouldn't have.
At least without also carrying on his personal arsenal.

WOW! She was actually smart enough to get on bus all by herself! You know I wonder if she was for or against the Civil Rights Act of 1964?? That would prove one way or the other if she was smart or not!!

And you know this because you are a idiot,and your PC massas tell you this is true,right?

What the HELL does her getting pissed one day and just sit down before reaching the back of the bus have to do with her intelligence or abilities? Thank you for verifying you are incapable of forming a rational throught.

Going to sing us all a song about how terrible it was on you growing up as a poor black female now?

I doubt she was thinking anything about it at the time. She was quoted as saying she was tired and had a attitude for having to work so hard for so little (Which is NOT a exclusive "black thang") and just decided she was too damn tired to walk to the back of the bus,so she sat down where she was standing at the time. I have no doubt she was for it once she rested up and thought about it,but right then she just wanted to sit down because she was tired. BTW,she was beaten and robbed by a black thug a couple of years before she died. I'm betting SHE would have liked to have been armed at the time.

I'll leave that to you.
And just why was she pissed? Did you agree with buses' forcing blacks to sit in the back? Should she have been forced to sit in the back?
I have no doubt she was for it once she rested up and thought about it,but right then she just wanted to sit down because she was tired. Yup, and she must have wondered, just because I'm black, why can't I sit in whatever available seat there is on the bus, rather than being forced to sit all the way in the back.
I'm betting SHE would have liked to have been armed at the time. Now why doesn't that surprise me.... $5 says she lived in a neighborhood with only blacks living there, and they had no respect for her whatsoever.... If she would have handed out free cell phones she would have gotten more respect, but then again maybe not... All she had to do was go and buy one, but I guess "ideology" trumps reality!!
“We have four boxes with which to defend our freedom: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammunition box.”
Because she was tired from working hard all day and didn't feel like walking to the back of the bus. Let me ask you a more profound questions: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" Did you agree with buses' forcing blacks to sit in the back? Yes,IF it is a private bus company and the owner doesn't want blacks sitting in the front,and NO if it is a private company with a government contract,or the bus line is owned by the city. Private individuals have a perfectly legal right to discriminate against anybody that want anytime they want. Government has no such right.
Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
I agree for the most part,but NOT the part where you insist on implying it is a bigger burden for someone black to do this purely because they are black. BUT.....,it doesn't matter what either of us think if it was a private bus line with no government contracts because he or she is free to discriminate against anyone they want to discriminate against.

IIRC,she had moved from the south to Detroit by the time she was attacked and beaten,and was still living there when she died. ANYBODY that lives in Detroit and rides the buses unarmed is subject to get attacked regardless of their skin color or identity. It's a freaking jungle,and the animals are clearly in charge.
Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
Of course it was, how could it not have been? What if there were no seats available in the back, where she was forced to sit? Then she had to stand, rather than sit in a seat in the front available only to whites? It was purely because they are black, precisely because these were the laws imposed on blacks. Had it been imposed on whites, then it would have been the opposite.
And let me ask you something: in your opinion, just what good reason would the bus line have had to discriminate against blacks? I'm curious to see if you can provide one. Can you? And are you familiar with Jim Crow laws? Yes, these were government sanctioned laws that discriminated against blacks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws
You really and truly don't even begin to understand how ignorant you really are,do you? It is people like you that help keep racism alive by constantly playing the victim and dismissing or totally ignoring the fact that EVERY ethnic group has gone through the same thing and insisting blacks and American Indians are some sort of children incapable of taking care of or advancing themselves without unfair advantages imposed on everyone else by the "Great White Father". BORN to be a Dim because you can't be anything else.

It ain't me, Arch. I don't make racial slurs against blacks in a daily basis. That be you, bubba.
Let me ask YOU a more appropriate question,ok? In your opinion,WHY does a private citizen or business owner have to HAVE a freaking reason to run his or her own lives and businesses in any manner they want as long as they pay their taxes? In a FREE country citizens don't have to justify their actions to the government,the government has to justify their actions to the citizens. And make no mistake about it,having the little bit of freedom your socialists/communist/fascist Great Left Fathers (committee,don't ya know!) ALLOWS you to have is NOT the same thing as being free. Having only the little bit of freedom your intellectual messiahs of the left allow is like having only a "little bit of Aids" or being "a little bit pregnant". If you can ever overcome your programming and learn to think for yourself you are likely to wake up one day and discover you are nothing more than a serf,no different than the typical citizen of Moscow under the communists.

Feeling a little inferior, are we? :-)
He ducks, he dodges, he squirms, he slithers away!!! You answer first. Oh, and BTW, what part of Jim Crow confuses you?
Of course you don't. You are far too busy stamping out racism where it doesn't exist while creating it. That would be you,Mortimer. Clueless as always,and unlikely to ever change because the way you are now allows you to pretend you are smart,educated,and a "deep thinker". BTW,"dense" and "deep" are words with different meanings.

Of course you are,and with good reason. You have a lot to feel inferior about.

You answer first. Why,when it's not related to anything but bullshit? You ask PC fluff while I ask core questions. Oh, and BTW, what part of Jim Crow confuses you? What is it about the rights of free men to live as free men that confuses YOU,comrade? Is it because you have to HAVE a actual mind before you can make your own decisions,and nobody gave you permission to think for yourself?

She should be able to sit wherever she wanted to provided the owner of the bus agreed to it. But this has nothing to do with affirmative action.
Your family was slavers. It was people like you that lynched and beat blacks. Today your type kills babies. Back then it was blacks.
You said I was Archie. We can't both be Archie.

BORN to be a Dim because you can't be anything else. You should know by now that he doesn't like answering relevant questions but likes to focus more on asking irrelevant ones.... It's all about portraying others as the bad guy, the ignorant guy, the racist guy!!
“We have four boxes with which to defend our freedom: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammunition box.”
No, you're just a dipshit.
What if the owner is the government?
