“Lawless” equals “courageous” in the progressives’ lexicon.

And Holder certainly knows a thing or two about affirmative action.

I know this may be hyperbole to some, but watching and listening to these clowns, for me, is reminiscent of watching the top Nazi’s cavorting in the late 1930’s.

And like those Nazi’s, time will not be kind to them.

"[This] great country still has a ways to go before our founding promise of equal justice and equal opportunity is fully realized,” he said.

And it will take even longer with latter day fascists inferring thought, word and deed from one's particular skin color.

Well, as my father always says, they stick together. Naturally, they have benefitted from it like our occupant in the White Hut

Is the Democrat Party’s lingering support of the unconstitutional Affirmative Action Law mainly due to their guilt that the Democrat Party founded the KKK?

Courageous or Predictable?

Justice Sonia Sotomayor has been open about how affirmative action played a role in her life and the reasoning behind her dissent only confirms it.

Sotomeyer’s attitude is disgusting. She’s proud of taking seats in college and law school from more qualified students! That alone should’ve disqualified her from the Supreme Court.

It’s alarming that a U.S.Attorney general sees everything thru racist glasses.

I take your point and your humor but I think they are like a kid who keeps getting a free game from a malfunctioning pinball machine...they think they’ve gamed the system and don’t want the freebies to end (sounds familiar).

All the po-faced stuff gets old very quick but obviously the media will exhaust themselves attempting to present Holder, Obama, et al as serious thinkers on a subject. But when your work day begins at 10:30 or 11 AM and you can’t tear your eyes away from ESPN on the flat-panel TVs in the Oval Office, odds are you aren’t doing much thinking.

Holder has ratcheted up the poor-us rhetoric of late, probably because he’s losing cases and support on an almost daily basis.

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail. Instead of crying over spilled milk, what did Holder do about the case before it went before the court? Did he leave it up to the government solicitors? Was he confident of the Court overstepping its bounds again? Or is Holder like Obama in that jawboning an issue is all the effort he’s willing to expend?

When you think about the practical manifestation of these ideas/policies, it’s insane. Universities will preach about equality, diversity, and good old tolerance. They will fill brochures and web sites with this drivel. They will then turn around and build dorms, student centers, even entire academic *koff* departments based on the melanin content of one’s skin. It’s madness, especially if we remember the self-righteous ‘divest’ movement re: apartheid in South Africa. In reality, they were simply importing apartheid to their own campuses.

That sow has no business being a judge and shouldn’t even be allowed to have a law license!
