I had been wondering about that myself.

Lucius Vorenus, now's your chance to say what you REALLY think!

I am Lugash.

Well, Steve was right(yet again) about Obama's views on affirmative action.

By picking Sotomayer he bypassed his real Nixon-in-China moment and showed his true colors on AA. Instead we get the DeGaulle in Algeria option.

I am Lugash.

Obama picked Sotomayor, an anti-White liberal latina.

Possible Obama Supreme Court Pick Slapped Down Reverse Discrimination Case in One-Paragraph Opinion:

U.S. Appeals Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor, mentioned as a possible Supreme Court nominee, voted to deny a racial discrimination claim in a 2008 decision. She dismissed the case in a one-paragraph statement that, in the opinion of one dissenting judge, ignored the evidence and did not even address the constitutional issues raised by the case.

The case, Ricci v. DeStefano, involved a group of 19 white firefighters and one Hispanic firefighter who filed suit in 2003 claiming that the city of New Haven, Conn., engaged in racial discrimination when it threw out the results of two promotion tests because none of the city’s black applicants had passed the tests.

Each of the plaintiffs had passed the exam. The case is currently before the U.S. Supreme Court.

The city threw out the results because it feared potential lawsuits from activist groups if few or no minority candidates were promoted. The city also claimed that in addition to potential lawsuits, promotions based on the test results would undermine their goal of diversity in the Fire Department.

The firefighters sued, arguing that New Haven was discriminating against them by deciding that the tests would promote too many white candidates and too few minorities.

Federal Judge Janet Bond Arterton rejected the firefighters’ appeal, siding with the city and saying that no racial discrimination had occurred because the city didn’t promote anyone at all.

U.S. Appeals Court Judge Sotomayor issued an order that affirmed Arterton’s decision, issuing a one-paragraph judgment that called Arterton’s ruling “thorough, thoughtful, and well reasoned,”

This is hilarious:

It's from a major South Korean newspaper.

Even the Orientals know what's up.

Wohoo, unmoderated free-for-all. Ransack the joint.

Looks like the S. Korean newspaper changed the title of the article I linked to above.

The original title of the article was "A Jewish Mother's Dream."
