No better conclusion

By now, we have all heard the infamous quote from President Obama's choice for the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor: ""I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life." http://voices.washingtonpost.com/postpartisan/2009/05/sotomayors_deliberate_choice_o.html And by now, we have all heard the comments that if you switched "latina woman" with "white male" no one would argue that such a comment wasn't racist. But, today, we get to move beyond all this.

After all, today Judge Sotomayor showed us that she really didn't reach a better conclusion. Apparently, today, she "chose poorly" when she concluded to zig rather than zag as she raced through LaGuardia Airport. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31171316/

And we taxpayers "footed" the bill for the necessary medical care she received due to her poor choices. If she is confirmed to the Supreme Court, how much more will American taxpayers have to pay for her future poor choices?
