Conservative logic can make liberals weep — perhaps literally. Just ask Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who on Friday told a Harvard University audience that life can be very hard now that conservatives form a majority on the court. “There are days that I’ve come to my office after an announcement of a case and […]
There have been hints going back more than a year that some on the left are thinking now would be a good time for Justice Sonia Sotomayor to retire. Karen wrote about it back in February. I wrote about in early March when Josh Barro pointed out that this year may be her best chance […]
