The Sotomayor effect

Daily Caller: Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey is now the latest state prosecutor to start investigating conservative groups with supposed ties to ExxonMobil, after she issued a subpoena for 40 years of internal company documents and communications with a handful of think tanks.

Healey’s office subpoenaed Exxon as part of a multi-state effort among liberal attorneys general to investigate Exxon for allegedly trying to cover up global warming science. Healey charges that the oil giant lied to shareholders and consumers about the risks of global warming in its communications and shareholder filings, according to a copy of the subpoena obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

According to the Sotomayor rule, if it does not fit your politics, then bring charges.  If we follow this rule then a whole bunch of Kanosian research over the last forty years wou;ld be illegal, a fraud.  Right wing politicians could use the rule to bring down Harvard and Berkeley.  Did Sotomayor think this through?  No, she is not a real thinker, she affirmative actioned her way through college.
