Sotomayor Senate Hearings Begin July 13--New York Times

July thirteenth will mark the beginning confirmation hearings on Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s nomination to the Supreme Court. They say the session will probably last several days and after the entire Senate will vote to an agreement. President Obama has said he hopes that Judge Sotomayor be confirmed in time to take her seat when the Supreme Court convenes on the first Monday in October.
It crazy how long they make a simple vote lasts. They have had months to figure her out. Why not just vote already! :) Obama's motive behind her confimation seems to be apparent to everyone.

  1. They can't 'just vote' already -- they have to investigate her voting record, etc. because it's a lifelong appointment. It's the norm.
