Sotomayor 'Clearly Belongs' On Supreme Court, NYT Editorial Says
Despite "the flimsy arguments" that some Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee made for opposing the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor, she "clearly belongs on the court," a New York Times editorial states. Although Sotomayor sometimes avoided "forthright answers on important legal issues" during the confirmation hearings, she consistently "showed an impressive command of the law," according to the editorial.Claims that Sotomayor would not be able to resist "judicial activism" and that she would be "overly influenced by "personal preferences"" if she were to serve on the court are "strikingly weak," the editorial states. It continues, "Some Republicans may be wary of opposing Judge Sotomayor because she would be the first Hispanic justice, and they are reluctant to alienate a large voting bloc," but "[t]here is no need for political calculations." According to the editorial, "Senators should support her because she is eminently qualified."The editorial states, "We hope the vote in the full Senate for Judge Sotomayor will be overwhelming and the rhetoric more high-minded" (New York Times, 8/2).

Politicians Must Face Reality Of Tough NHS Financial Future, Says The King's Fund

Commenting in response to today"s report from the NHS Confederation on the financial prospects for the NHS, The King"s Fund"s Chief Executive Niall Dickson said: "After a decade of unprecedented spending, the NHS could face drastic cuts after 2011. This report backs up our analysis, which shows that the prospects for the NHS after 2011 will be severe unless the service responds now by improving efficiency and reforming the way care is delivered. "Our analysis shows the NHS will probably have to operate under these much harsher financial conditions up to 2017 - yet at the same time more older people, more technology and higher expectations will create more demand for health care. We do have a window of opportunity - just under two years - when budgets still look relatively generous and the service can prepare for the lean years ahead. "In practical terms that means every NHS organisation should be embarking on a rigorous programme of cost control, and every organisation should be working with others to redesign services to improve quality and save money. The two are not necessarily incompatible. "But what is also required is political courage. We do not need politicians boasting that they will "spend more than the other lot" when they all know perfectly well that no matter who is in power the next few years will be about managing with less. This is not the time for reassurance - it is a time for difficult messages and support for doctors, nurses and managers who are prepared to reshape services at local level. "That will mean driving efficiency throughout the system while focusing on the quality of care; concentrating some specialist services in fewer hospitals; moving other services into the community and learning to manage patients better to avoid unnecessary admissions and unnecessarily long stays in hospital. The alternative is to shy away from this agenda, pretend it will all be fine, and risk throwing away the significant advances that have been made in recent years." The King"s Fund is a charity that seeks to understand how the health system in England can be improved. Using that insight, we help to shape policy, transform services and bring about behaviour change. Our work includes research, analysis, leadership development and service improvement. We also offer a wide range of res to help everyone working in health to share knowledge, learning and ideas. The King"s Fund
