Sonia Sotomayor Socialist or Bait?
Oklahomily Dave Scores Again...
The question is not whether Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor has socialist leanings.
The question is more interesting than that.
Does the White House not realize that posting her 1976 Princeton yearbook photo includes her tribute to Norman Thomas, the perennial candidate of the Socialist Party, or does the White House simply not care?
Or are they trying to create a firestorm over a 33-year-old yearbook entry in order to make the right look mean spirited?
Others weigh in on this HERE, and HERE and HERE.
If you'd like to read more about the late Norman Thomas, this is illuminative.
One of the quotes of Mr. Thomas:
“The difference between Democrats and Republicans is: Democrats have accepted some ideas of Socialism cheerfully, while Republicans have accepted them reluctantly."
