Well….Schlussel in German means ‘key’ – the unlocking a door type key. That I will never forget as I had locked myself out of my apartment while stationed in Germany and my hausmeister (landlord) wouldn’t let me in until I gave him the German word.

Clarence Thomas is going to stand for the ages as the example of a purely race-oriented appointment. The Right has a very short memory, but I don’t. I vividly remember getting up on a Saturday morning, turning on the TV, and watching Orrin Hatch lead Thomas through his revolting performance of feigned outrage. Thomas was scared to death– I remember his foot tapping nervously under the witness table through the whole thing.

I have never forgiven Hatch, Thomas or Alan Simpson for what wasn’t in any way a “high-tech lynching.” It was a high-tech frat-house gang rape. If the Right pulls that crap on Judge Sotomayor, they’ll pay for it this time.

Swami, I thought he put it in his own drink and tried to suggest it was a female. Doesn’t it make you wonder what standards the repugs have?

It sounds to me like the right will be trying to block or dely her. It’s always the same. No No No or do whatever you can to hold things up. I guess it’s the only power they have. I haven’t heard them say one person they think would be better.

Shlussel claims that neither J-Lo nor So So has achieved legal greatness? Well. what about Clarence Thomas…He couldn’t even figure out who put the pubic hair in his coca-cola.

“D-Shlu” was the least rude nickname the Wonketteers came up with. Works best when pronounced “Duh, Shluh!”

But yes, D-Shlu is a craven nonentity, and should be disregarded as such.

“About the only things Miers and Sotomayor have in common is that they’re both women with law degrees.”

I think that’s the point the wing-nuts are trying to make. Having a woman in charge is something they can’t seem to accept, sort of like having a black man in charge, it is just untenable for most of them. Oh well get use to it assholes, frankly I can’t wait for the day that I become a minority (white male), it will be fun to see the change of heart and the full on hypocrisy that I’m sure will be displayed. As for a nickname for Shlussel, well I’m afraid mine would get me twit filtered so I’ll just keep it to myself. Suffice to say it is both politically and gender offensive!

Looks like the idiot right is throwing all kinds of things at Sotomayor, trying in vain to make something stick. Conversely, I sense that elected Republicans figure it’s a done deal – she’s going to be confirmed.

I do like “Oxy-boy” – it fits.

The Conservative mantra:
NEVER EVER let facts get in the way of a good fund drive!

They need something besides O’Reilly’s big ego, Sean’s big mouth, and Rush’s fat ass to fire up the base. She’s the only target available, since whatever they throw at President Obama (I still get a thrill out of writing that, despite some differences) seeems not to stick to him but rebounds back to them.

As for Shlussel, who the Hell reads her? Those that would want to, unfortunately can’t.
