image Others agree, saying Sotomayor is simply a reflection of the modern United States.



"As a woman and Hispanic, she brings a necessary flavor to the court that reflects what America is," said Egberto Willies of Kingwood, Texas.


"She is the new face of America," added Jimmy Deol of Toronto, Canada. "She's a woman, she's of Hispanic descent, and with her moderate liberal views, she reflects the ... diversity and mainstream views of today's America."


And Melissa Fazli thinks Obama just got lucky that someone with Sotomayor's qualifications happened to be both female and Hispanic.

My New Book Released

My new book "It's Worth It: How to Talk To Your Right-Wing Relatives, Friends, and Neighbors" is live. I am excited because I think especially in these times it provides some important guidance in a country where we seem to be rudderless, at each other throats, and lacking a sense of worth. In these distressing times, it is worth engaging.

Since you made it here …

… we have a small favor to ask. We have a lot of people reading our Progressive leaning fact-based blog posts and thousands listen to our Politics Done Right radio/multimedia program. We want to keep our reporting, blogging, and the featuring of Progressive politicians, activists, and everyday citizens that do not normally get coverage.

In that light, we developed our 10-point plan on how we will be an activist interactive publication for not just talking, not just being keyboard warriors, but empowering all to engage in whatever manner they can.

But we need your support to help us realize the venture. Please consider either subscribing to our network or contributing what you can. Even $1 goes a long way.
