Paul Greenberg reminds democrats of their attempt to block hispanic Miguel Estrada from the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals a few short years ago before Estrada withdrew his own name after two long years waiting and "deliberation."The process was labeled “broken,” “abused,” and “fraudulent,” thus requiring more legislative (bureaucratic) oversight. These are all laughable, hypocritical accusations considering several Republican attempts to secure the voting process through photo identification have never made it out of their first committee hearing.
Much like Sonia Sotomayor, Miguel Estrada had a stirring life story. For until he fell into the clutches of partisans like Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, and, yes, Mark Pryor, he'd lived the American dream. Ever since he'd immigrated to the United States at the age of 17 from Honduras, he'd studied hard and worked hard to make something of himself. And succeeded.
