Supreme Court Nominee

President Obama announced that he will be selecting Sonia Sotomayor as Supreme Court Justice to replace Justice Souter. Obama based his selection of Sotomayor by describing her as having a “rigorous intellect” and further saying, “I share the view that the proper role of the judiciary is one of interpreting the Constitution and acts of Congress, not legislating from the bench” … in other news Sotomayor on video jokingly says that laws are made from the bench.
