July 29 WINSTON GEORGE TANNIS ON SONIA SOTOMAYOR JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTSonia's temperament may not be perfectly suited for an
appointment at the level of the Supreme Court, including
her obviously ill-tuned and off-minded arrogance regarding
the judge's role in interpreting laws, however, perhaps
worse decisions have been made. Her error is commonly
made by legal scholars, and, practicing lawyers and
judges, as compounded by T.V. and film portrayals,
and with an underdeveloped sense of the judge's role
versus that of a legislature. Many of them are the subjects
of underdeveloped jurisprudential education and thinking -
a matter which I have reviewed and which flows from
within the United States at places like Harvard Law
School, Princeton and other places.
It is the kind of, a form of, a somewhat usual
unsophisticated male and female 'machismo' that has
gone unchecked for some time, with the excessive
politicization of academe, the Bench and the Bar,
and - most significantly - poor legal scholarship and
science and professional development. With this
said, her personal story and journey must be weighed
seriously and substantively, for if a privileged Kennedy
may make such comments as part of an Americana
dialogue, then so might a child of the off-white ghetto,
with her love of emancipating access to education and
the ecstasies which flow from such like William Clinton
improperly emulating his political theory professors
at a Democratic Convention and as speaker, or Kim
Campbell defending Milton Friedman and the
monetarists in the midst of a federal election campaign
in Canada, in the face of economic and fiscal worries.
