Speaking of appointing a Supreme Court Justice, Obama said he values empathy as an essential ingredient. The GOP went psycho! Did you know that empathy is a code word for social engineering, or an activist judge? Heaven help them in the likely event that they come before the Supreme Court, because “Justice is not about empathy!” You won’t believe that it gets more outlandish, and worked up to a fevered pitch. Watch their moment of selective amnesia as George WH Bush introduces Clarence Thomas, who while not as qualified as Judge Sotomayor, is touted as having among other things….empathy, which surprisingly, wasn’t his downfall.
