Jennifer Gratz is a model of diversity. The daughter of a policeman and a secretary in Southfield, Mich., she was the first person in her family to apply to college, sporting a résumé that included a 3.8 grade point average, 25 ACT score, and membership in the National Honor Society and student council. She was class vice president. Yet she was denied admission to the University of Michigan because racial preferences stacked the deck against her and her white, Asian, Indian, and Jewish peers by granting 20 points to black or Latino students, on an 80-point scale; a perfect standardized test score, by comparison, was worth 12 points.

To the Left, including most ACLU leaders, no conservatives, whites, or poor minorities have any “content” in the character. You have to be a libel/leftist and/orblack, period, to have “character”. like Saul Alinsky, Al Sharpton, Trayvon Martin, and Jesse Jackson and son.

In the old day we called this “reverse racism”. Today it is called “Obama’s Pets”.

It angers me that this is only in the news because non-preferred women are feeling the bite; this war against non-preferred men has been waged for decades, and many of those women impacted today support the system that keeps it going.

There is no reason to treat a black, Hispanic, or woman as “equal” if the government so openly demonstrates that they are not; there is also no reason to assume anyone in that group has earned their lot in life on their own merits, either.
