Sonia Sotomayor doesn't like commercialization of "wise Latina."

[AlphaCentauri]

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor said recently that she is troubled that "wise Latina" remark she made has been turned into a slogan sold on T-shirts, buttons and coffee cups.
"I can't tell you the number of people who come up to me and hug and kiss me and touch me, and some of them in tears," Sotomayor said in a press conference in Puerto Rico, reported by the Associated Press. "I wish there was a way of keeping that without the commercialization of me. Because when I spoke my words I spoke them freely, and I never intended for people to make money off them, because that seems wrong to me."

1. Too late.

I mean I sympathize, but she is out of luck, as any good USSC Justice ought to know.
