**Update: The meeting was reschduled, but still doesn´t change the fact that the blew her off when she was running 10 minutes late.**
Last Thursday Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) was scheduled to meet with Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor. When Sotomayor was delayed because of her recent injury, COCKER decided that he had more important things to do than wait for a potential lifetime appointee who is temporarily disabled. "I decided to proceed on to the next meeting," he told a Tennesse Press Association breakfast in Chattanooga. Hobbling along with her leg in a cast, Sotomayor was 10 minutes late.
What's most disturbing about this is the blatant disregard for Sotomayor's nomination and also bears the question: if the nominee was white... would he have waited?? Given all the criticism coming her way from conservatives wasn't COCKER at least a bit interested in giving this lifetime appointee a fair opportunity to state her opinions face to face??
COCKER CAN SUCK IT! Sonia should have gone LATINA on his ass. That's right. Y'all know what I'm talking about. You pin your hair up. Take your earrings off. Give you pursue to your girlfriend for safe keeping and start talkin' smack in spanish with completely dilated eyes!

June 23, 2009
Services) WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) today met with Judge Sonia Sotomayor, President Obama’s nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court.
“Judge Sotomayor is a testament to the power of a strong work ethic and a focus on education and a role model to many Americans as a result,” said Corker. “I enjoyed meeting with her today and found her to be very intelligent and eloquent in expressing her thoughts. I did raise some concerns in the meeting and let her know I’m reserving judgment on her nomination until the conclusion of a fair and thorough hearings process.”
