Just what is the world turning into anyways. Confused??

So, let me get this right:

Option 1:
“We don’t think that the process of selecting a Supreme Court justice should include asking questions about a person’s personal sex life,” Peter Sprigg, senior fellow at the Family Research Council, told me moments ago.

“But if a person does publicly identify as gay or lesbian, or particularly if a person has been involved with homosexual rights activism at any level, then there would have to be serious questions asked about whether he or she would impose a pro-gay ideology on the court.”

Option 2:
“We don’t think that the process of selecting a Supreme Court justice should include asking questions about a person’s religious life,” Peter Sprigg, senior fellow at the Family Research Council, told me moments ago.

“But if a person does publicly identify as Christian, or particularly if a person has been involved with religious rights activism at any level, then there would have to be serious questions asked about whether he or she would impose a pro-religion ideology on the court.”

Option3:
“We don’t think that the process of selecting a Supreme Court justice should include asking questions about a person’s ethnicity,” Peter Sprigg, senior fellow at the Family Research Council, told me moments ago.

“But if a person does publicly identify as Black, or particularly if a person has been involved with Black Rights rights activism at any level, then there would have to be serious questions asked about whether he or she would impose a pro-Black ideology on the court.”

Any takers to write options 4 thru 99?

You know, I don't think this leopard will change its spots, not at all.
