An article in today’s Washington Post reports that President Obama’s interview of Sonia Sotomayor left President Obama “sure she agrees with the constitutional underpinnings of Roe v. Wade”:
“In their discussions, they talked about the theory of constitutional interpretation, generally, including her views on unenumerated rights in the Constitution and the theory of settled law,” Gibbs said. “He [President Obama] left very comfortable with her interpretation of the Constitution being similar to that of his.”
Just wondering: Was the interview taped? And if so, would President Obama, consistent with his commitment to — or, rather, rhetoric about — transparency, make the tape publicly available so that the American people can know just what commitments and assurances he extracted or received?
