Benjamin Vargas had a tough decision. He was one of only two Hispanics who scored high enough on a promotion test for New Haven firefighters, and city officials threw it out because too few minorities scored well.

He could join a group of white firefighters suing the city, or he could side with others -- including many minorities -- who wanted the results thrown out.

He joined the lawsuit and says others labeled him as an Uncle Tom and a traitor to the Hispanic community.

"I received lots of criticism," he said testifying to the Senate Judiciary Committee. "I've got a thick skin."

Judge Sonia Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel that rejected the lawsuit. Last month, the Supreme Court ruled for the firefighters, and Sotomayor has faced harsh criticism for her ruling.

Vargas said he was proud of the Hispanic background that he shares with Sotomayor, but that the ruling was unfair and un-American.

"This is what America is all about. You work hard," he said. "We're the greatest country in the world. ... You rise and fall on your own merits."

Vargas said the Supreme Court decision makes him believe that things are getting better. "We're going the right direction now."

Short white guys -- and others -- welcome

Thur Jul 16, 4:30 pm ET

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., seemed to try to have it both ways on diversity as he spoke to Frank Ricci, the New Haven, Conn., firefighter testifying about the controversial reverse-discrimination case.

The senator professed his belief that judges should be chosen on merit -- but then claimed that considering diversity was "a standard way of operating in political circles."

"I know that Republicans sit down and think ... let's make sure we let the whole country know the Republican Party is just not a party of short white guys," said Graham, himself a short white guy.

He seemed to try to explain himself later, saying: "What I wanted to tell the country is Republicans very much do sit down and think about political picks and appointments, in a political sense, to try to show that we are a party that looks at all Americans and wants to give an opportunity. That is just life, and that is not a bad thing."

The docket: coming up in the fall

Thur Jul 16, 4:43 pm ET

The Supreme Court has released the cases that Sotomayor and her eight colleagues will hear on her first day of the next session if she is confirmed to the Supreme Court. The three cases the Supreme Court will hear on Monday, Oct. 5, will be:

MARYLAND V. SHATZER: A case in which the Supreme Court will clarify how long a suspected criminal's request for a lawyer during police interrogation should be valid. The court will hear Maryland's appeal of a decision throwing out child molester Michael Shatzer's confession.
Shatzer asked for a lawyer almost three years before admitting to the abuse.

MOHAWK INDUSTRIES V. CARPENTER: A case where the high court will decide whether a party may immediately appeal a discovery order to disclose materials said to be covered by the attorney-client privilege.

SOUTH CAROLINA V. NORTH CAROLINA: A fight between those two states over water in the Catawba River. South Carolina says North Carolina is taking more than its equitable share of water out of the Catawba.

Getting to the point

Thur Jul 16, 3:57 pm ET

Leave it to Sen. Arlen Specter to ask the question everyone wants to know: "Do you have any reason to think that Judge Sotomayor acted in anything other than good faith in trying to reach a fair decision in the case?"
 
The Pennsylvania Democrat asked that of New Haven firefighters Frank Ricci and Benjamin Vargas who joined other plaintiffs in a racial bias lawsuit against the Connecticut city.
 
Ricci's microphone briefly went out, but here's what he said: "That's beyond my legal expertise ... This is our first time we've gotten to testify about our story so I can't comment."
 
Did Specter get Vargas to go any further? Not so much. "I would have to defer to the same response. We were invited here to give our story, and we wanted to focus on that," Vargas said.
 
Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel that ruled against the firefighters. That ruling was overturned by the Supreme Court, and opponents have been highly critical of Sotomayor's decision in the case.

Graham's colorful commentary

Thur Jul 16, 3:57 pm ET

Think Sen. Lindsey Graham's previous comments during the Sonia Sotomayor hearing have been colorful? Think again.

The South Carolina Republican just cussed when addressing firefighter Frank Ricci. "I appreciate how difficult this must have been for you to bust your ass and study so hard" and still be turned down for a promotion, Graham said.

"You probably did not get the day in court that you deserved," Graham added. "Please do not lose sight of the fact that not so very long ago, the test was rigged a different way."

A crack up

Thur Jul 16, 3:57 pm ET

It's pretty certain that Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., would have loved a do-over on one remark he made while talking to Wade Henderson, president of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, about scheduling a Senate Judiciary hearing on the crack cocaine problem.

Sessions said he and Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., had been in discussions, saying: "Senator Leahy and I were talking during these hearings -- we're going to do that crack cocaine thing you and I have talked about before."

The hearing room cracked up.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., looked over at Sessions. "Please rephrase it, Senator. please rephrase," he said. Sessions laughed along with the crowd, but also clarified: "I misspoke."

Bunning and baseball

Thur Jul 16, 3:50 pm ET

With Sonia Sotomayor a professed baseball nut, you'd think the only former Major League Baseball player serving in the Senate would vote for her.

Nope.

Sen. Jim Bunning, R-Ky., took to the Senate floor immediately after Sotomayor finished her testimony to say that he's going to vote against her. Said Bunning: "On viewing the record of Judge Sotomayor, I do not find her to be a suitable candidate for justice of the Supreme Court of the United States and will vote against her whenever the Senate considers her nomination."

Bunning played for 17 years in the majors. This is how he describes his career in the big leagues on his Web site.

"Pitching primarily for the Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Phillies, Bunning accumulated a record of achievement that eventually won him a seat in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996. He was the second pitcher in history (Cy Young was the first) to record 1,000 strikeouts and 100 wins in both the American and National leagues. When he retired in 1971, Bunning was second on the all time strikeout list -- second only to Walter Johnson."

Sotomayor is a big Yankees fan, and there was baseball talk just about every day of her questioning. But with Bunning, she struck out.

Praise payback

Thur Jul 16, 3:47 pm ET

Throughout the hearing, Sotomayor has heaped praise on longtime Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau and the role he played in her life. He got the chance to return the compliments today when he appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee, seated next to New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

The 89-year-old Morgenthau said that as a prosecutor for four years, Sotomayor could not be pushed around, and that as a judge she never looked for the easy way out of cases. He said she was so effective as a prosecutor that she once left a judge in tears as she described the harm done to victims in a Times Square child pornography case.

He said she would be an outstanding justice and would bring a unique perspective to the court because she has been a state criminal prosecutor. Morgenthau announced earlier this year that he is retiring after 35 years as district attorney.

Firefighters testify about difficult test preparation

Thur Jul 16, 3:28 pm ET

New Haven firefighters Frank Ricci and Benjamin Vargas talked emotionally about how hard they studied for a promotion test that was thrown out by city officials because too few minorities did well.

Ricci and Vargas stressed that the test was clearly related to their job, which requires fast decisions and a broad understanding of fires and rescue techniques. Vargas, who is Hispanic, and Ricci, who is dyslexic, said they threw themselves into preparation for the test to make sure they were promoted.

"I studied harder than I ever have before," said Ricci, running his finger across the page as he read from a statement. "Reading. Making flash cards. Reading again. ... Listening to tapes."

Ricci said he was a virtual absentee father and husband while studying. Vargas said he ignored his family for three months, surrounding his basement desk with photos of his three sons to remind himself that he was working to make their futures better. His wife, a teacher, took time off from work so he could focus on the test. He eventually checked into a hotel to cram.

"I was shocked when I was not rewarded for this hard work," Vargas testified.

Ricci and Vargas joined other plaintiffs in a racial bias lawsuit against the city. Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel that ruled against the firefighters. That ruling was overturned by the Supreme Court, and opponents have been highly critical of Sotomayor's decision in the case.

Firefighters testify, but not everyone's listening

Thur Jul 16, 3:15 pm ET

Not everyone showed up to hear the Republicans' star witness testify: the firefighter at the center of a controversial reverse-discrimination case much-discussed during Sonia Sotomayor's confirmation hearing.

Frank Ricci told his story -- but he didn't mention Sotomayor by name in his statement. He did say the case at hand was not about his dyslexia, but about fairness. "The more attention our case got, the more some people tried to distort it," Ricci said. "We sought basic fairness and even-handed enforcement of the laws, something all Americans believe in."

Ben Vargas, another firefighter, also testified the focus of the case should have been on what he did to deserve a promotion. He said: "The focus should not have been on me being Hispanic."
 
Only the following senators heard their statements -- Ben Cardin of Maryland, Chairman Patrick Leahy of Vermont, Richard Durbin of Illinois, Arlen Specter of  Pennsylvania for the Democrats; Jeff Sessions of Alabama, Orrin Hatch of Utah, John Cornyn of Texas, and Lindsey Graham for the Republicans. Only Leahy appeared to be reading, the rest listened intently.

The two firefighters filed a reverse discrimination suit that Sotomayor joined in dismissing. The Supreme Court reversed that decision last month. The case has proved a leading cause for conservatives opposed to Sotomayor. The judge's critics have criticized her for dismissing the firefighters' arguments without a hearing. They were trying to win promotions they said they earned on an examination that the city administered.

Speaking now before the Judiciary Committee: The man at the center of one of Sonia Sotomayor's most-disputed court rulings.

New Haven, Conn., firefighter Frank Ricci is telling his story in the reverse discrimination case that has proved a leading cause for conservatives opposed to Sotomayor.

The judge's critics have criticized her for dismissing the firefighters arguments without a hearing. They were trying to win promotions they said they earned on an examination that the city administered. New Haven eventually ruled the test invalid, saying it looked stacked against minorities.

Bloomberg's face in the crowd

Thur Jul 16, 2:51 pm ET

He's the top dog in New York City. But in Washington? He's simply one member of a panel reading prepared testimony supporting Sonia Sotomayor's nomination to the Supreme Court.

Michael Bloomberg sat at the far end of a witness table that included arguably the most anticipated witnesses -- firefighters Frank Ricci and Ben Vargas, who are testifying for Republicans.

Bloomberg was supposed to go first but he was running late. So Dustin McDaniel, Arkansas' attorney general, picked up the slack. He was starting his testimony when the New York mayor arrived. When it was his turn, Bloomberg predictably put in many a plug for his city and heralded Sotomayor as "the quintessential New York success story."

The "other" Sotomayor

Thur Jul 16, 2:47 pm ET

Sonia isn't the only famous Sotomayor who passed the bar and went on to reach some pretty lofty heights.

Cuba's Javier Sotomayor has held the world record for the high jump since 1992, when he leapt 2.45 meters, or 8 feet 1/2 inch. The mark is one of track and field's most enduring records. He was also the first human to jump over 8 feet, and he did it in 1989 in Puerto Rico, where Sonia's parents were born.

Now retired from competition, the 41-year-old manages the Cuban national track and field team. Like Sonia, he's a hero to millions of people across Latin America. He is considered the best high jumper of all time.

In case you're curious: They're not related.

Getting more comfortable?

Thur Jul 16, 1:50 pm ET

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., seems to be warming up to Sonia Sotomayor -- at least when comments made today to reporters during a break are compared with what he said Wednesday during a similar break.

A day ago, he said her testimony was "muddled, confusing and backtracking on issue after issue." But just minutes ago after she finished testifying, Sessions told reporters "the nominee said some good things in the hearing." But he added that he still had some serious concerns about her and needed to think about it before he decides how to vote.

Sessions said he did not expect a committee vote on her nomination by next Tuesday, adding: "To have a few extra days between the hearing and the vote is not too much to ask."

And... she's outta here

Thur Jul 16, 1:46 pm ET

After sitting in the witness chair for 3.5 days, Sonia Sotomayor is finally done.
 
But not before a few more words from Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy. He thanked the nominee and her assembled family for their intellect, grace and patience. He also said that 2,000 people attended the hearings in person. Then, Leahy recessed the hearing for a few minutes.
 
Much hugging ensued. Sotomayor stood up, hugged her family and friends, then made her way up to the dais. She hugged Leahy, who hugged her back. And then she left.
 
Public witnesses are next.

Lightning round

Thur Jul 16, 1:25 pm ET

When Sonia Sotomayor finishes answering questions, the pace of the hearing will increase tremendously.

The public witnesses who are scheduled to speak will for the most part come in, give a quick speech and then leave. Many of the senators don't even hang around for the public witness part of confirmation hearings. You may have a couple senators ask questions of the witnesses, but those will go by quickly.

The only exception to this will be the New Haven, Conn., firefighters Frank Ricci and Ben Vargas. Senators will come back to hear from these two men, considering Republicans have used the New Haven firefighter case to criticize Sotomayor. Look for GOP senators to also criticize liberal groups that have been digging in Ricci's past to find something to use against him, since he is expected to criticize Sotomayor's decision in his lawsuit.

Money, money, money

Thur Jul 16, 12:55 pm ET

Sonia Sotomayor mentioned that she took a pay cut when she left corporate law to become a judge. She said federal judges had not received a raise in 20 years.

Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions, who was nominated as a federal judge in 1985 and rejected by the Senate Judiciary Committee, pointed out that judges do get cost-of-living increases.

Federal trial judges are paid $169,300 a year. Appellate judges make more, ranging up to $217,400 for Chief Justice John Roberts. Sessions said the salary for judges was about four times the average family's income.

"I hope you can live on it. If not, you probably shouldn't take the job," he told Sotomayor.

Waving the white flag?

Thur Jul 16, 12:40 pm ET

Did GOP Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama just signal the Republicans' surrender on Sonia Sotomayor's confirmation?

Sessions, who leads the Judiciary Republicans, said that they are not going to try to block Sotomayor, saying: "I will not support and I don't think any member of this side will support a filibuster or any attempt to block a vote on your nomination. It's a very important vote."

Some conservatives, as well, have called on the GOP to slow down her nomination and hold it over past the Senate's month-long recess in August. But it doesn't seem like that is going to happen either. Said Sessions to Sotomayor: "I look forward to you getting that vote before we recess in August."

Why do you want this job?

Thur Jul 16, 12:26 pm ET

Sotomayor says she wants to be a Supreme Court justice because "I can't think of a greater service to give to the country."

Seemingly fresh out of questions, Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., started to wind down the morning session by asking simply: "Why do you want to be a Supreme Court justice?"

Sotomayor answered with a story about her rise to the federal bench, a move Sotomayor said was inspired by her dedication to public service.

"It really has always been the answer, given who I am, my love of the law," she said. "My sense of importance about the rule of law, how central it is to the function of our society, how it sets us apart as many senators have noted, from the rest of the world, have always created a passion in me," she said. "I can't think of a greater service to give the country than to be given the privilege of being a justice of the Supreme Court."

Everybody out of the cert pool

Thur Jul 16, 12:23 pm ET

Here's another one of those what-the-heck-is-it subjects: the cert pool.

It's a Supreme Court tradition where law clerks review petitions for certiorari -- requests for an appeal of a ruling to the Supreme Court -- and recommend whether they should be granted. The recommendation is circulated to each justice in the pool. It's supposed to be a time-saving device, with thousands of requests for cert to the Supreme Court. Only two sitting justices don't participate, Justices John Paul Stevens and Samuel Alito. Alito participated for a while, and then withdrew.

It came up today when Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., asked whether Sotomayor would join the cert pool.

"My approach would probably be similar to Justice Alito, which is experience the process, take, for a period of time, consider its costs and benefits, and then decide whether to try the alternative or not and figure out what I think works best in terms of the functioning my chambers and the court," Sotomayor said. "I can't give a definitive answer because I generally try to keep an open mind until I experience something and can then speak from knowledge about whether to change it or not."

-Jesse J. Holland, AP reporter, Supreme Court

======

Not on the fringe

Thur Jul 16, 12:20 pm ET

Two of the Senate Judiciary Committee's conservatives say Sotomayor's judicial record shows she's in the mainstream.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, is a former state judge himself: "I actually agree that your judicial record strikes me as pretty much in the mainstream of judicial decision-making by district court judges and by Court of Appeals judges on the federal bench."

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., took Sotomayor to task about her speeches and work outside the court, saying: "You have, I think, consistently, as an advocate, took a point of view that was left of center." But, he added, "you have, as a judge, been generally in the mainstream."

Graham and Cornyn -- both of whom were strong advocates of President George W. Bush's judicial nominees and fought Democrats over their judicial filibusters -- have not said how they will vote on Sotomayor in committee or on the Senate floor. But the nominee's probably feeling pretty good about those statements from two very conservative senators.

Praise from both sides of the aisle

Thur Jul 16, 12:15 pm ET

Three days of testimony are paying off: Sonia Sotomayor is drawing praise today from GOP skeptics as well as Democratic supporters.

It's the final day of Senate questioning that's expected to lead to her confirmation.

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., described Sotomayor's judicial record as "generally in the mainstream" and said he thought she would keep an open mind on gun rights. He proclaimed her "not an activist."

Sen. Arlen Specter, a Republican-turned-Democrat from Pennsylvania, said he's not ready to announce his vote, but "conventional wisdom" strongly points toward Sotomayor's confirmation.

We found one last nugget we want to tell you before we go silent. Here's AP Television Writer David Bauder, who tracked down one of Al Franken's old friends:

The next time he runs into his old friend Al Franken, James Downey hopes to learn some of the secrets of the U.S. Senate.

Not that Downey thinks there really are any. The "Saturday Night Live'' writer just thinks it would be a fun thing to ask of the new junior senator from Minnesota.

The two men worked side by side on NBC's late-night comedy show for 20 years, and now they largely communicate by barber. They share the same one, and leave messages saying hello to the other whenever they get their hair cut.

Downey said he's reluctant to call his friend, since he always seemed to get him on the cell phone when Franken was about to give a speech. He hasn't watched much of Franken in action this week at the Sotomayor confirmation hearings, but is no longer surprised to see him as a politician.

"He's aged into it nicely,'' Downey said. "He doesn't even look the way he did when he was doing full-bore comedy. He just seems a little more serious stylistically. I can imagine someone who had no idea he had a previous career wouldn't think about it all.''

Downey said he knew Franken would eventually win when he was a few hundred votes behind on election night. ``We used to call him the Rasputin of comedy'' for the way he wouldn't stop when he wanted something done, he said.

It's not that he ever thought he was working beside a future U.S. senator when they were tossing off gags for the "Church Lady'' or two wild and crazy guys.

"He was always extremely ambitious,'' Downey said. "But it was always directed toward appearing on TV or in movies. I bet he didn't think about it either.''

A parting thought ...

Fri Jul 17, 1:30 am ET

Long after her Judiciary Committee hearing, after the Senate debate and confirmation and, sadly, long past the day when Sonia Sotomayor departs the Supreme Court bench, the racial politics practiced here in Washington will go on.

A nation with its first black president will soon have its first Hispanic Supreme Court justice, and yet these and other breakthroughs don't wash away the stain that makes "wise Latina" a potent political punch.

This is a town that plays the race card from both sides of the table, Democrats and Republicans alike. And so there was a knowing audience for Frank Ricci, a white firefighter from New Haven, Conn., who spoke to the Senate Judiciary Committee in steady, deliberate voice about how he was denied a promotion because of the color of his skin.

As Nancy Benac wrote for the AP, "He spoke ... to frustrations that still ripple in an undercurrent across the nation."

Until the next hearing ... .

Fri Jul 17, 1:30 am ET

Thanks for interacting with us on twitter. We asked this question:

"We'd like your help with a blog post: What have you learned about American politics and democracy from the Sotomayor hearing?"

Here’s what you said (with RTs and hashtags and the like removed):

bitterb: That a nominee can misrepresent fundamental legal doctrines & still be approved (Incorporation/Fundamental Rights)

jackantic: That The Show Must Go On, always, in the US Senate.

karmakimmie: I've learned that when you talk to senators, use small words and short sentences.

hololio2: Seriously, I learned that many senators and testfiers don't understand that appellate judges rule on law, not social issues.

fmome: That simmering beneath the civility of the hearings, there are those on both sides of the debate that are intolerant and nasty (a)nd I'm not talking about the Senators, rather the people they represent. America still seems quite divided and nastily so.

edmondesq: The Sotomayor hearings taught me that political theater still means more to politicians than people do. That must change.

najahaje: Similar to Socialist country now

daelyn: It has reiterated the fact that we tend to waste a lot of time and money!

Winnowill: Knowing your Perry Mason episodes is a lot more important to these procedures than I ever would have thought.

alexromano: shows us how the people we elect look out for our interests in deciding one of the most powerful judicial positions in the US.

Mokurai: Nothing in the sotomayor hearing is new to me, except the name Jefferson [Davis] Beauregard Sessions III

Fri Jul 17, 1:30 am ET

Lessons learned about democracy and politics from the Sonia Sotomayor confirmation hearing -- both your take and ours. Here are ours:
 
ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES. President Barack Obama won the White House and Democrats expanded their hold on Congress last fall. That made for an easy path for the Democratic president's nominee. Sotomayor's chances were never in serious danger. Obama wouldn't have nominated someone who had major flaws that would lead to failure. And, Democrats now have a 60-vote majority -- enough to thwart a GOP filibuster. Things would have been much different had John McCain won the White House. His close friend, GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham, acknowledged as much, telling Sotomayor: "My inclination is that elections matter."
 
RACE IS STILL EXPLOSIVE. Sotomayor showed that people who have national ambitions must watch what they say over the course of their careers, lest their words come back to haunt them. "Wise Latina" -- a phrase Sotomayor says was used to inspire -- became fodder for Republicans to suggest that this Hispanic nominee was a racist. The reverse discrimination case of the firefighters in New Haven, Conn., pushed race even more to the forefront of this hearing and stoked passions among people of every political persuasion and ethnicity.

SENATORS MUST WATCH THEIR TONGUES. The cameras are always rolling. And senators are always in front of them. In this age of sound-bite journalism, in particular, that can make for a politically perilous combination. Context can be misconstrued. Tone can be lost. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., took some heat for a Ricky Riccardo riff. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., swore, kind of. And that kind of stuff can singe.

THE PUBLIC PROCESS ISN'T SO PUBLIC. From start to finish, the hearing is scripted. The questions senators asked, the answers Sotomayor gave, the testimony witnesses gave -- everything was planned beforehand. And even the audience was skewed to the script. Most people in the room were part of the show -- journalists, senators, aides, White House officials, lobbyists. Chairman Patrick Leahy noted that more than 2,000 members of the public attended the hearings. He didn't say they were permitted into the hearing room on a rolling basis -- and could stay in the room for only 20 minutes.
 
IT'S ALL ABOUT POLITICS. Senators had one eye on the witness table -- and one eye on their home states. It's a good bet that everything they said was intended for their audience back home -- constituents who will vote on whether they keep their jobs or not. Both Republicans and Democrats were mindful -- painfully so, it seemed -- to watch their politics, particularly with Hispanics. They make up the fastest-growing minority group in the country, and, as such, pack a politically powerful punch. So, senators of all stripes walked a political tightrope, as they tried to make their points without offending Hispanics

Those are our thoughts. We asked your take on Twitter, and you responded.

That's coming right up.

Beyond the hearing: path to confirmation

Fri Jul 17, 1:30 am ET

Sonia Sotomayor sat in the witness chair for more than three days in her quest to become the first Hispanic justice and third woman to take a seat on the Supreme Court. Through it all, she ducked and dodged her way through a gauntlet of questions, parrying with her answers -- or nonanswers -- to emerge unscathed.
 
By the end, she even had conservative Republicans singing her praises, though they wouldn't commit to vote in her favor -- yet.

So now what?
 
The Judiciary Committee scheduled a confirmation vote for Tuesday -- and made that announcement even before public witnesses had finished testifying. But even though Republicans have said they won't block Sotomayor's confirmation, a committee vote might not happen then.

Any senator on the committee has the right to ask for a one-week delay on a confirmation vote. That means the latest it is going to happen is Tuesday, July 28. That gives Democrats almost two weeks to get her confirmed on the Senate floor before the chamber leaves for its summer break on August 7.

So what's the chance that her confirmation fails? Barring a monumental surprise, zilch.

-Liz Sidoti, AP reporter, politics

======

That's a wrap, people

Thur Jul 16, 8:15 pm ET

The Judiciary Committee has adjourned Sonia Sotomayor's confirmation hearing after four days of testimony from the nominee and public witnesses -- and four days of pandering to hometown voters by senators.

The committee still must vote on the nomination -- slated for next week -- and then the full Senate will have to vote. Democrats hope to wrap it up before taking off on summer recess in August.

So you legal addicts: Take a load off and get some rest.

How much longer will it go?

Thur Jul 16, 6:11 pm ET

Looks like the threatened 1 a.m. EDT vote might have been a bit of motivation for senators to cut a deal to avoid voting at such an unpleasant hour. We're told that negotiating is taking place now (on a bill unrelated to the confirmation hearing) because really, no one responsible for congressional business enjoys it in the wee hours.

That means (stay with us here) that the committee is likely to trudge through the final two panels. Best estimate from our knowledgeable source: "7:30, tops."

New Haven firefighters tune out Sotomayor hearing

Thur Jul 16, 5:36 pm ET

Frank Ricci's firehouse in New Haven was not exactly captivated by his appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Some firefighters said they watched the hearing on TV briefly, while others said they were too busy testing hoses on a hot day.

Some said they were sick of it after six years -- and that's about all they would say. The city has ordered firefighters not to talk about the case.

Shortly after Ricci spoke, two firefighters were nearly asleep watching "Mad TV." A military channel had been on earlier.

Friends with the FBI -- director that is

Thur Jul 16, 5:23 pm ET

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh has quite a different perspective than most witnesses on Sonia Sotomayor. He's actually seen her in the courtroom.

Freeh was a judge in federal court in Manhattan when Sotomayor arrived at the court in 1992. He said there was a tradition that the second newest judge had to mentor the newest judge. So he said he sat in her courtroom during trials and helped her review opinions. His conclusion: she has "enormous judicial integrity and commitment."

About a year later, Freeh was nominated by President Clinton to be FBI director, a post he held until 2001.

Cone recalls his glory days

Thur Jul 16, 5:16 pm ET

Fresh off winning the Cy Young Award as the American League's top ace in 1994, David Cone found himself at the White House a few months later making another pitch: Trying to help end the players' strike that had wiped out the World Series.

The baby-faced righty was part of a small group that met with President Bill Clinton and was a key player throughout the negotiations, representing major leaguers at the bargaining table. At one point, players and owners even agreed to shift talks from Washington to New York to accommodate his wedding.

Cone testified today in support of Sotomayor, who ended the baseball strike in 1995.

"A lot of people both inside and outside baseball tried to settle the dispute," Cone said. Her key ruling forced owners and players back to the bargaining table and ultimately brought Major League Baseball back to the nation.

"With one decision Judge Sotomayor changed the entire dispute," he said. "I believe all of us who love the game -- players, owners and fans -- are in her debt."

Cone lost about $570,000 of his $2 million salary because of the walkout. It may have cost him a little more, too — two weeks after the strike was settled, his hometown Kansas City Royals saved money by trading him away.

Cone retired in 2003, leaving with credentials that got him on the Hall of Fame ballot last year. He won 194 games, was a five-time All- Star and played on five World Series champions. He pitched one of only
15 perfect games in modern baseball history, and once tied the then- National League record of 19 strikeouts in a game.

Now 46, Cone remains popular with fans as a broadcaster for the New York Yankees.

End times are near ... maybe

Thur Jul 16, 5:03 pm ET

Everything in the Senate revolves around votes -- and there's one at 1 a.m. Friday EDT.

What that has to do with the Sotomayor hearing: It might continue into the night until all public witnesses have been heard because senators have to stick around anyway for the vote. Another reason: If at all possible, senators would like to head home Friday rather than sit in committee.

No decision on timing has been made, according to a knowledgeable person. So, once again, stay tuned.

-Laurie Kellman, AP reporter, Congress

Vote next week, if Dems have their way

Thur Jul 16, 4:54 pm ET

Democrats are wasting no time now that Sonia Sotomayor has passed her confirmation hearing test in good condition.

Public witnesses for and against Sotomayor were still testifying when Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy's aides announced that it had scheduled a confirmation vote on her nomination for Tuesday. But while Republicans have said they won't block Sotomayor's confirmation, a committee vote might not happen then.

Any senator on the committee has the right to ask for a one-week delay on a confirmation vote. Scheduling the vote for Tuesday means that the latest it is going to happen is Tuesday, July 28. That gives Democrats almost two weeks to get her confirmed on the Senate floor before the chamber leaves for its summer break on August 7.

Hispanic firefighter was labeled as Uncle Tom and traitor

Thur Jul 16, 4:30 pm ET

Benjamin Vargas had a tough decision. He was one of only two Hispanics who scored high enough on a promotion test for New Haven firefighters, and city officials threw it out because too few minorities scored well.

He could join a group of white firefighters suing the city, or he could side with others -- including many minorities -- who wanted the results thrown out.

He joined the lawsuit and says others labeled him as an Uncle Tom and a traitor to the Hispanic community.

"I received lots of criticism," he said testifying to the Senate Judiciary Committee. "I've got a thick skin."

Judge Sonia Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel that rejected the lawsuit. Last month, the Supreme Court ruled for the firefighters, and Sotomayor has faced harsh criticism for her ruling.

Vargas said he was proud of the Hispanic background that he shares with Sotomayor, but that the ruling was unfair and un-American.

"This is what America is all about. You work hard," he said. "We're the greatest country in the world. ... You rise and fall on your own merits."

Vargas said the Supreme Court decision makes him believe that things are getting better. "We're going the right direction now."

Short white guys -- and others -- welcome

Thur Jul 16, 4:30 pm ET

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., seemed to try to have it both ways on diversity as he spoke to Frank Ricci, the New Haven, Conn., firefighter testifying about the controversial reverse-discrimination case.

The senator professed his belief that judges should be chosen on merit -- but then claimed that considering diversity was "a standard way of operating in political circles."

"I know that Republicans sit down and think ... let's make sure we let the whole country know the Republican Party is just not a party of short white guys," said Graham, himself a short white guy.

He seemed to try to explain himself later, saying: "What I wanted to tell the country is Republicans very much do sit down and think about political picks and appointments, in a political sense, to try to show that we are a party that looks at all Americans and wants to give an opportunity. That is just life, and that is not a bad thing."

The docket: coming up in the fall

Thur Jul 16, 4:43 pm ET

The Supreme Court has released the cases that Sotomayor and her eight colleagues will hear on her first day of the next session if she is confirmed to the Supreme Court. The three cases the Supreme Court will hear on Monday, Oct. 5, will be:

MARYLAND V. SHATZER: A case in which the Supreme Court will clarify how long a suspected criminal's request for a lawyer during police interrogation should be valid. The court will hear Maryland's appeal of a decision throwing out child molester Michael Shatzer's confession.
Shatzer asked for a lawyer almost three years before admitting to the abuse.

MOHAWK INDUSTRIES V. CARPENTER: A case where the high court will decide whether a party may immediately appeal a discovery order to disclose materials said to be covered by the attorney-client privilege.

SOUTH CAROLINA V. NORTH CAROLINA: A fight between those two states over water in the Catawba River. South Carolina says North Carolina is taking more than its equitable share of water out of the Catawba.

Tick, tock

Thur Jul 16, 4:30 pm ET

It's that time of day when we ask ourselves: How much longer is this hearing going to take? Early guidance is that the Judiciary Committee might not hear from all three remaining public witness panels today. Stay tuned.

Getting to the point

Thur Jul 16, 3:57 pm ET

Leave it to Sen. Arlen Specter to ask the question everyone wants to know: "Do you have any reason to think that Judge Sotomayor acted in anything other than good faith in trying to reach a fair decision in the case?"
 
The Pennsylvania Democrat asked that of New Haven firefighters Frank Ricci and Benjamin Vargas who joined other plaintiffs in a racial bias lawsuit against the Connecticut city.
 
Ricci's microphone briefly went out, but here's what he said: "That's beyond my legal expertise ... This is our first time we've gotten to testify about our story so I can't comment."
 
Did Specter get Vargas to go any further? Not so much. "I would have to defer to the same response. We were invited here to give our story, and we wanted to focus on that," Vargas said.
 
Sotomayor was part of a three-judge panel that ruled against the firefighters. That ruling was overturned by the Supreme Court, and opponents have been highly critical of Sotomayor's decision in the case.

-Laurie Kellman, AP reporter, Congress

Graham's colorful commentary

Thur Jul 16, 3:57 pm ET

Think Sen. Lindsey Graham's previous comments during the Sonia Sotomayor hearing have been colorful? Think again.

The South Carolina Republican just cussed when addressing firefighter Frank Ricci. "I appreciate how difficult this must have been for you to bust your ass and study so hard" and still be turned down for a promotion, Graham said.

"You probably did not get the day in court that you deserved," Graham added. "Please do not lose sight of the fact that not so very long ago, the test was rigged a different way."

Criminal background checks have become a necessity in employment hiring processes today. Dealing with the hassle of background checks is much easier than dealing with the damages brought about by dishonest and crime-committing employees. This damages maybe the loss of trust of the corporate world and/ or loss of financial gains. Some companies may think that background checks are only additional costs in the employment process but later they will realized the importance of having these checks after the damage has already been done.

Hiring the trustworthy employees for the right position may seem difficult due to additional costs and effort but it is much better to undergo these than to lose money and reputation that you have built for so long. You might choose the additional work in the hiring process than enduring negative speculation (which leads to loss of trust) and other financial loss brought by the damages.

Background Checks on Doctors

Doctors are well respected and admired for their medical expertise and for their job of saving human lives. Hence, most of us do not question a doctor's work and decision. However, we have a saying that there is always an exception to every rule. How do we make sure that our doctors are reliable, trustworthy and pose no threat to our health? Hospitals solve this problem by forming a committee that screens and thoroughly investigates an applicant doctor's past.

Checks serve lots of purpose for evaluation of the character and competency of the doctor. They can be use to check and validate the information presented in their resume. Criminal records check can be use to check the mental stability and professional competence of the applicant. This is important because past criminal records may lead to malpractice suits aside from the threat to the health of the patients. Financial records can also be used as a basis for evaluating an applicant. Financial troubles worry most doctors that often take their focus from their main job which is to save lives.

Background Check of Executive Applicants

When hiring employees of senior and medium levels, a background check is always useful to check the competency and trustworthiness of the applicant, the validity of the information presented in their profile and their character. This is needed since the hired applicants will be handling high levels of responsibility. It is often difficult to find the right applicant for the position because of the responsibility that will be assigned to him/ her. Their job is crucial for the company and cannot be taken lightly.

Although the probability of lying for an applicant applying for an executive position may be low, it is always good to be sure about the credentials and information offered by the applicant. Doing this can save the company thousands of dollars and other damages that a dishonest executive may incur. A dishonest applicant hides something from employers that may hinder the individual's application. This thing may be big or small or even small things that lead to bigger problems and offenses. Doing an accurate background check by checking all the records and information of the applicant is much easier than cleaning up the damages brought by a deceitful employee.

That free information may not be all that for there may be other crimes committed by the person that are not published online but can only be found in complete public records. These sources of personal information are just scattered over the Internet and you will be lucky enough if you find them. But if not, it may result in trusting a person just because you were not able to find a criminal record online. This can be risky since a person may have criminal records which you failed to find out from free sources. If you really want to make a reliable decision, you will not rely in the information obtained just by making free searches. You can actually find complete criminal records from the trusted background check sites that are now available on the Internet.

You may judge and think that the paid sites for background check services are not for everyone because of the price. You are wrong because the good news is that these services are one of the Internet's most affordable services. Paid background check sites are offered by the top public records sites in the US known for their updated database and affordable fee. By using these sites, you will see the difference why you no longer have to rely on free searches because by using a more reliable source, you can make the right decisions in trusting the person you are investigating.

So you just woke up and slept with the man of your dreams or is he really? Once you have slept with someone it is safe to say that things are getting pretty darn serious, but before you go any further how well do you really know that guy? You need to be sure that he will not hurt you either physically, emotionally or financially. As sad as it is to say, there are guys out there that prey on women to do things like that to them.

You need to make sure that you cover yourself and are not in any danger of being hurt at all. There are proactive steps that you can take to put you in the right direction and make sure that you are free and clear of any potential danger that is lurking ahead with this guy. Before you get any deeper and any more serious with this relationship you must make sure that you are well prepared and know all that you need to about him. 

One way to find out all that you need to know about him is to run a criminal records search on his name. If there is anything that comes up such as a charge for forgery or trying to hurt someone then you will have proof of it. Finding this kind of stuff out before you are knee deep in this relationship will help steer you in the direction you need to go in order to stay safe.

On my 18th birthday I was fired from a christian camp in Kansas City. I was led to believe that I was being fired for being open with my sexuality to my co-workers. About a month later I was informed of an investigation by child protection services of an accusation that I had T-Bagged a camper. After I was informed and interviewed I never was contacted about the case again. I assume that it has been dropped. No charges were ever brought up. I was never arrested. Could this prevent me from working in the education field?
