barf, barf, barf. Affirmative action, Colman Young, and leftist, kook politics. As long as she hid in East Michigan, she could be left alone with her ineptitude, now she walked out on the big stage and will be exposed as the dimwit she is.
"Golly, that sounds a lot like Affirmative Action doesn't it?"
RUSH: A federal judge ruled just moments ago that the government's warrantless wiretapping program is unconstitutional and ordered an immediate halt to it. "US district Judge Anna Diggs Taylor, in Detroit, became the first judge to strike down the National Security Agency's program, which she says violates the rights of free speech and privacy." Who is this babe? Who is Judge Anna Diggs Taylor? By the way, you see what's happening, ladies and gentlemen, the judiciary, which I and others have been warning you, is out of control, is now assuming commander-in-chief duties. Some federal judge, Eastern District of Michigan, decides to take it on her shoulders. She campaigned for Jimmy Carter. He appointed her to the federal bench in 1979.
She is a Carter appointee. It all makes sense. The first African-American woman appointed to a federal judgeship in Michigan, appointed in 1979, November 15th, sworn in as a federal judge to the US District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, 1997. She became the first African-American woman to be named chief judge of the eastern district of the United States district court. She stepped down in 1988 as chief judge in order to reduce her work load, continued to serve as a senior federal judge. But that's not all, ladies and gentlemen. The Wall Street Journal, Tuesday, June 18th, 2002, a column by Thomas J. Bray entitled: "Disorder in the Court -- Judicial shenanigans mar an affirmative-action case. Will Congress investigate?
"Rumors in Washington has it that the House Judiciary Committee may hold hearings into the events surrounding the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' 5-4 decision upholding the University of Michigan Law School's affirmative action program. In a rare break with judicial comity, two judges in the court publicly questioned the procedures that Chief Judge Boyce Martin, a Carter appointee, had set out in the case... Chief Judge Anna Diggs Taylor of the federal District Court in Detroit tried to take the suit against the law school away from Judge Bernard Freedman, who had been assigned it through a blind draw," which is the standard way these things happen. Case goes to a court, whoever is up next on the docket gets the case.
This babe, Chief Judge Anna Diggs Taylor, Carter appointee, tried to take this case away from the judge, Bernard Freedman, "who had been assigned it through a blind draw and who was suspected of being skeptical about affirmative action." The judge who was assigned the case was suspected of being skeptical about affirmative action. He was suspected! So this Stalinist judge, Anna Diggs Taylor, said, "Well, we can't have somebody that's biased that way. We need somebody like me, biased my way, toward affirmative action. That's what's fair in my courtroom." At any rate, she wanted to "consolidate it with a similar suit against the university's undergraduate admissions practice, which Judge Patrick Duggan was hearing. The chief judge dropped that effort was dropped after the judge hearing the law school complaint went public with a blistering opinion objecting to what he termed 'the highly irregular' effort of the chief judge," which would be Anna Diggs Taylor.
That is a break with tradition. Normally what goes on behind closed doors and courts is never known. But she was trying to take the case away, because she suspected the judge who had been assigned the case was dubious of affirmative action. Can't have that. Just civil liberties, civil rights advocate, not a judge. She's just a satellite member of the ACLU that's sitting as a judge, for all intents and purposes. How did this case get tried before her court anyway? Did the ACLU say we want to try this case -- they had to know that they were going to a sympathetic judge. Why in the world would you choose a court in the Eastern District of Michigan to file suit against the federal government and the NSA program? The only reason to do it is if you know you've got somebody in your own club on the bench.
Thank you, Jimmy Carter, you doofus. Glittering jewel of colossal ignorance, worst president in my lifetime and in the modern era, an utter disaster. More on him in just a moment. "Judge Duggan ruled in favor of the undergraduate racial preferences, while Judge Freedman ruled against the law school preferences." So that's who this babe is, ladies and gentlemen, Judge Anna Diggs Taylor -- I don't know if there were ever -- I guess there weren't congressional hearings on what went on. Of course not. What year was it, two thousand -- of course Republicans investigate Democrats? Hell, who's kidding who? Wouldn't do anything like this.

"Whatever Judge Taylor’s motives, it is critical to understand the impact of her decision, were it allowed to stand. Among many damaging results, the Terrorist Surveillance Program, publicly credited not 72 hours ago with helping to prevent the “9/11 Part 2” British airline bombings, will be shut down and our enemies will know it."
Or will they? When this idiotic leak came forward from the idiotic news media, predominantly liberal, to try to harm the administration's efforts to get the job done and delaying successes by destroying a working program for political means, couldn't this be an excellent way to fool the murdering animals into going back to using the same means thinking it is safe? Or maybe it isn't? Since the media screwed it up like a bunch of morons, couldn't they be moron enough to report the opposite for the administration in their exuberance and offer the administration to use the program during court procedings with greater successes of use or non-use by the enemy?
The media shouldn't be fed more than twice a day. They convert the means to dishonesty and stupidity, at best.
Red
Uhhah...
If a Democrat were in office with the same prudent directive to stifle terrorist acts not a word would have been uttered by Ms. Diggs-Taylor and the WOT wouldn't be scrutinized to this extent by her.
Impeach, recall or charge the DIShonorable Anna Diggs-Taylor with treason. Get her off the bench NOW!
We've been told and told and told, over and over and over again by our conscientious, fact-checking press, that this is a "domestic wiretapping" program. It seems this Carter appointee considers the MSM a credible source.
Affirmitive action appointees need never: earn their way by merit; hew to ONE truth. Infact the truth becomes plastic and means what one WANTS it to at any given moment. People just don't understand the insideousness of the corruption of Affirmitive Action.
