So...it’s unconstitutional to NOT discriminate in favor of certain groups???
And...this is where in the Constitution?
Whites only = Jim Crow and Illegal.
Blacks only = Affirmative Action and is sanctioned by our government.
Any questions?
Did they explain how it “burdens minorities”?
Time to cut off taxpayer funding of colleges and universities. If they have to start paying their own way, the only color they’ll care about is green.
” Clinton Appointed Judges change law voted in by a majority of voters. “
Wasn’t there a Supreme Court ruling a couple of years ago to the effect that Michigan could eliminate race-based admissions and hiring??
(Or, my leaky old memory might be playing tricks again...)
The only reason “race” is still an issue in the country is the left KEEPs it an issue. Real Americans judge each other on merit, not skin color.
I think Kafka wrote an outline for this story, but then went back to a man turning into a giant bug as more realistic.
Liberal judges: never letting that Constitution-thingy get in the way of a good, leftist agenda.
Another tyrannical Federal judge. Bench the bastard or bitch.
Were these the judges people or Holder’s people?
The judge is either an idiot or is cynically buying time. Proposition 209 in California did the same and it was upheld by the SCOTUS.
Racism alive and well. Without these racist programs where would Obuttface, The Moocher, and her rats be?
Seeing as how liberals decry the evils of Institutional Racism, I’m certain they will oppose this decision.
The U.S. has already been around the block on this. Affirmative action was a well-meaning, ill-conceived program. Conclusion: academic achievement should be the sole criterion for admission and advancement. Make sure the educational system is good from the earliest grades to give all equal opportunity to achieve, but don’t pretend they’ve achieved when they have not.
Sooo, instead of may the best person win, it is now the law of the land that if you are a shiftless lazy amish lad wearing your pants to your knees and your dreadlocks in place and you put forth little effort to better yourself in high school, you will get extra special bonus admittance to colege, jobs, etc?
Near time for that little revolution yet?
And Sandra Day O’conner says itis wrong to criticiize judges, many ought be in prison or worse.
From the decision:
“Hunter and Seattle thus expounded the rule that an enactment deprives minority groups of equal protection of the laws when it: (1) has a racial focus, targeting a goal or program that “inures primarily to the benefit of the minority”; and (2) works a reallocation of political power or reordering of the decisionmaking process that places “special burdens” on a minority group’s ability to achieve its goals through that process.”

Apparently, any reward of a minority group is legal, and refusing to give special treatment is banned because equal protection is unequal.
Further, any election that results in a minority group losing power is an unconstitutional election.
WOW!
So Obama cannot be removed from office unless the opponent is black, since the election of a white to replace a black would “work a reallocation of political power or reordering of the decisionmaking process that places “special burdens” on a minority group’s ability to achieve its goals through that process.”
Guess Cain is our only hope to defeat Obama, since it would be illegal to frustrate black voters by allowing a white man or woman to replace him.
Alice in Wonderland: equal treatment is illegal because equal protection under the law requires unequal treatment.
Insanity. We successfully defended such a law in CA.
The students she trains who she believes are the best educated and talented are from Asia and India. Their level of knowledge is far above all the other students.
anyone know how much the voters passed this by?
In Leftyland, “Unequal” is the new “equal”.
