Conservative BS on Sotomayor reversal rate

Contra the Washington Times bullshit, three of five cases isn’t statistically significant.

Beyond that, though, there is more.

Having only five of her cases granted cert by SCOTUS is actually much more significant. And in just the opposite direction of the conservative bloviosphere the Times represents.

And, if the Times does NOT understand what is statistically significant, well, that's why conservatives resist so much scientific information — they can't understand that, either.
