President Obama's pick for the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor, is just what we expected: a far-left liberal who is also a payoff to certain interest groups (namely women and Hispanics). We have a big stack on her today, including her belief that a minority can render better decisions than a white male and that policy is made by courts. She recently rejected a reverse discrimination case, but she has almost nothing on abortion. Even liberals have criticized her for being intellectually shallow. Here are some of her other opinions, including one in which she held that the Second Amendment only applies to the federal government.

Meanwhile, "Crazy" Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that the debate over the Iranian nuclear program is "over" and that they will pursue nukes, rejecting efforts by the West to negotiate the program.
