Wrong Sotomayor Opposition

With Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court, there are reasonable concerns about her judicial philosophy and then there are stupid and sexist concerns.

(G. Gordon) LIDDY: Let’s hope that the key conferences aren’t when she’s menstruating or something, or just before she’s going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then.

Good God. Can people please come up with an argument that doesn't sound like the kind of moronic crap girls heard in seventh grade?

Interesting take on language used to describe assertiveness in women and men here.

UPDATE: Republican Hispanic strategists are worried about how these boneheaded attacks will affect their outreach to Latinos. And it's no wonder.
