As used by diversicrats, the term "diversity" is a code word for group rights. Yesterday I posted a piece called Miers and Affirmative Action that presented evidence that she has supported group rights (e.g. preferences by sex/race).
IMO, that's not how any conservative reads the Constitution, which guarantees equal protection under the law. One of the most absurd things to come out of the Supreme Court in my lifetime is Sandra Day O'Connor's finding that the Constitution says preferences are OK for another 25 years. I guess this is something that only a graduate of Stanford Law School can find in there because I'll be damned if I can find anything that comes close to saying the equal protection clause may be suspended for 25 years so that judges may avoid the inevitable cries of outrage from the hopelessly leftists MSM.
I really fear Harriet Miers will be another Sandra Day O'Connor, and quite possibly, to the left of her.
Well, isn't that the point...we don't know if Miers is a "diversicrat" or simply a realist who understands that the U.S. is diverse and we should never separate against a person based on race, age, sex, religion. To do so, would be violating their constituional right.
If any judge said otherwise, I would be alarmed.
