She knows life in the Bronx, anyhow

Has Sotomayor any business experience?  She knows how the world works, says Obama, but like him knows not the pressures and realities of profit and loss?  I’m alluding to his test for a good S.C. justice. 

I’d prefer a keen legal mind and a propensity to call it by the book.  Why does Obama privilege (as they say in academe and its offshoots) some kinds of experience and not others? 

We know why: he’s a leftist radical who is skilled in vote-getting.  But we few — we unhappy few — would like a majority to know it, wouldn’t we?

Here’s a case in point, demonstrating her baffling lack of common sense in the business arena.

Episcopal church and its gay bishop

A look at religion Episcopalian-style, from the pews:

A year ago, Mary Slusser was dreadfully upset about her church. The Anglican Communion was seething, as issues of sexual morality divided it. Two African churches, Nigeria and Uganda, were leading a charge, with a view to schism or expulsion of liberal churches, primarily the Episcopal Church in the United States.
