If Sonia Sotomayor is confirmed as a Justice on the Supreme Court, she will become the sixth Catholic on the High Court (out of nine). The Boston Globe did an article today saying that this is a sign of the nation's "religious tolerance."
I am willing to bet my entire paycheck for one year that if a Republican appointed the sixth Justice, there would be a complete uproar, not some insulting article on the growing intelligence and acceptability of the Catholic population.
Case in point. When President Bush nominated John Roberts and Samuel Alito, the media and liberals were all worked up about two Catholics being chosen. But, appoint a liberal Catholic and all of a sudden those concerns don't seem to matter anymore.
