Unbelievable.

[Dog Gone]

It seems neither side was happy with this "deal."

[Gritty]

Go ahead, boys, filibuster. Make our day...

[onevoter]

Article states "Janice Rogers Brown and William Pryor, have documented histories of opposing the rights of African Americans and of hostility to the broad mainstream of law and rights enacted by the Congress over the past 75 years."

In another manner of speaking, "These judges are under the impression that Blacks are competent and can, with work and due diligence, accomplish their goals without the use of quotas to give them an advantage over every other applicant."

[Soul Seeker]

And I thought the Moderates were going to save the day! usher in a new era of peace and love. Well surprise surprise! All they did was make things WORSE!!!!

Congressional Black Caucus Condemns Filibuster Deal, Calls for Defeat of Justice Brown

If they're doing it because she's black, that's racist.

If they're doing it because she's a strict constructionist, that's bigoted.

Might as well say: "Plantation
Slaves Denounce Emancipation Proclamation; Demand 'Massa' Not Free a Single Slave"

[Radio_Silence]

Somebody correct me if I'm mistaken but I didn't realize affirmative action was a civil right. Did I miss something?

[NRA2BFree]

I hope the RATS are taking the same kind of heat over this travesty as the RINOS are.

[Susannah]

INCREDIBLE! To believe that Janice Rogers Brown is against civil rights and justice, I would have to believe that the 76% of Californians that voted to keep her as a judge are also opposed to civil rights and justice.

Northern California Republicans should use this in their campaign against Senator Feinstein in 2006 if Feinstein votes against Janice.

[Ron in Acreage]

Another black on black crime. Liberals cannot allow another black to succeed without kissing their race baiting ring.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

You can say that again. Unbelievable!

U.S. Rep. Melvin L. Watt (D-NC)

A total waste of US air space...

[freeangel]

I think the White Caucus ought to go ahead and vote for her today just to tic them off. Oh, wait--there is no white causcus.

[muawiyah]

Somebody must not have consulted with the CBC.

Well, what can you expect out of a committee headed by a Ku Kluxer anyway!

[kcvl]

The Congressional Black Caucus strongly opposes...

Blah, blah, blah...

[JCEccles]

Janice Rogers Brown and William Pryor, have documented histories of opposing the rights

Just the opposite. They have documented histories of treating all people equally under the law. That's what annoys the professional victim groups that the Democratic Party caters to.

    The Black Caucus does not represent the best interests of blacks or any Americans. Here is a picture of Jesse Jackson marching with N.O.W. (National Organization of Women, a liberal feminist group) members against Welfare Reform, along with the results of the reforms they opposed. State Reform took effect around 1992-1994 and the National Bill was passed in 1996. The Republicans swept the house in 1994 promising a ‘Contract with America’. People are the same the world over. It is the political structure and governmental interference that make all the difference. Get Government out of people’s lives and they will succeed. To believe people cannot succeed without government ‘help’ is to subscribe to what President Bush calls, ‘the soft bigotry of low expectations’. The reason they aren’t succeeding is BECAUSE of the government help, which only serves to subsidize poverty and single motherhood! For some reason, saying these things and passing bills that help millions of people out of poverty is said by the left to be ‘cruel’, ‘hardnosed’ and ‘racist’.

[traviskicks]

They will back Jesse Jackson, yet oppose Janice Rogers (who should be on the SCOTUS)!!!!


Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible.

We no longer find slavery abhorrent. We embrace it. We demand more. Big government is not just the opiate of the masses. It is the opiate. The drug of choice for multinational corporations and single moms; for regulated industries and rugged Midwestern farmers and militant senior citizens.
- CA Justice Janice Rogers Brown

The quixotic desire to do good, be universally fair and make everybody happy is understandable. Indeed, the majority's zeal is more than a little endearing. There is only one problem with this approach. We are a court.

Government is the only enterprise in the world which expands in size when its failures increase.

The public school system is already so beleaguered by bureaucracy; so cowed by the demands of due process; so overwhelmed with faddish curricula that its educational purpose is almost an afterthought.

What? The Congressional Black Caucus doesn't think Janice Rogers Brown is BLACK enough? If she doesn't kowtow to the poverty pimps and race baiters, I guess she isn't, in their eyes.
