Some Are More Equal Than Others

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor doesn't think too much of our Second Amendmen rights. It is also apparent that she thinks she is much too important to stand in line to vote like the rest of us great unwashed.

The publication DCist is perfectly OK with this.

Would we hold it against Sotomayor for jumping the line? Of course not—the court is hearing arguments in two cases today, after all, and it wouldn't be any good for her to miss those because she's trying to cast her ballot.

That is bullshit.

If she was so concerned about missing arguments, she had plenty of opportunity to vote by either absentee ballot or by taking advantage of the District's early voting. According to the DC Voter Guide, they had early voting available in all wards beginning as early as October 22nd and this included Saturdays.
