National Journal Online -- The Ninth Justice -- Grading Sotomayor's Senior Thesis

Judge Sonia Sotomayor said in a 1996 speech at Princeton University's Third World Center (now called the Carl A. Fields Center) that when she arrived at Princeton in 1972 as her high school's valedictorian, "I found out that my Latina background had created difficulties in my writing that I needed to overcome. For example, in Spanish we do not have adjectives. A noun is described with a preposition.... My writing was stilted and overly complicated, my grammar and vocabulary skills weak."

:lol: I'm sorry, that's amusing.
 
la dama es muy estúpida.
 
I know. How weird. She must have meant something else. :confused:

I thought so at first, but then she followed up with "A noun is described with a preposition"

wtf?
 
Maybe she's dyslexic. Or whatever you call people who get their words all mixed up. :lol:
Nah, she's just dumb.
You guys act so surprised like you've never seen a dumb woman before. :)

Though I've gotta admit that the dude who made her a judge is even dumber.
 
Su argumento esta muy peor.

"Peor" es un adjectivo.
 
No adjectives?

Then how could anybody ever be a real pinche cabron?

They'd only be a cabron.
 
Aviso:

Mi español esta muy peor. Escribo solamente un poquito.

Maybe a telprompter comes with the office nowdays.

For Sotomayor, it had better have a tie-in to Babelfish.com, so she can speak proper Spanish.
 
I bet it was a spanish adjective that tripped her at the airport
 
What I found hardest about Spanish is that they use words like 'La' and 'El'

Like....

The car in English is 'El Carro' in Spanish. But then the chair is 'la silla'.....damn it that **** is confusing when I already speak Ebonics. Ya dig?

So the court nominee is a "Valedictorian"...lets see what this means...
Interesting reading, much is explained...
I suspect chicanery here in the interest of political correctness and affirmative action..
In other words, it stinks..
