Supporters of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor are quietly targeting the Connecticut firefighter who's at the center of Sotomayor's most controversial ruling.

"To go after so sympathetic a plaintiff as Frank Ricci . . . is a new low in the politics of personal destruction," said Roger Pilon, the director of the libertarian Cato Institute's Center for Constitutional Studies.

Think that matters to the hate-mongers of the Democrat Party? If they will target and slime Trig Palin, a defenseless Downs Syndrome child, why would they hesitate for a second at taking on any regular American citizen. The weaker they are, the better the Democrat Party likes it.

It is exactly the reason that Sotomayor ruled against Ricci in the first place. He does not represent a "poor minority", which means O.J. or any black can kill him and they will get merely a slap on the wrist. It certainly means he does not have a right to earn a job promotion based on hard work. In Sotomayor's world any black or Hispanic has superior rights to any white.
