In a major embarrassment for the Obama Administration and Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a lower court ruling issued by Sotomayor that denied promotions to white firefighters in Connecticut based upon their race.
Sotomayor had ruled that minority firefighters were entitled to the promotions in spite of the fact that they did not do as well on a key test as the white firefighters.
The ruling by Sotomayor had set off a firestorm of controversy revolving around the issue of 'reverse discrimination.'
And the ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court today is a stunning setback for Barack Obama, Sonia Sotomayor, and the Democrats on the Hill who are determined to place her on the high court.
This is not the first time Sotomayor's court decisions have been overturned. In fact, her decisions have been overturned by higher courts more than any other judge in the federal system.
The question is, will the SCOTUS ruling today be enough to deny Sotomayor a seat on the high court? Remember, Democrats have an overwhelming majority in Congress, and they have demonstrated again and again that they will engage in corruption, scandal, and arrogance, refusing to investigate corruption in their own ranks.
They may well railroad Sotomayor onto the Supreme Court in spite of her obvious incompetence.
Senators on the Hill need to near from the citizens that we will not tolerate any more shenanigans on their part to engage in blatant partisanship no matter what the consequences. They may well discover just how severe are the consequences come November of 2010.

This won't stop them, but will instead embolden them to "fix" the court so that they get the "right" decision next time.
