Governor names first openly gay, Asian American to states high court
Gov. Jay Inslee has appointed King County Superior Court Judge Mary Yu to the Washington state Supreme Court. Appointed as a judge in 2000 by then-Gov. Gary Locke, Yu will be the first openly gay justice, and the first Asian American, on the states high court.

The eastern side of the state where I live did not vote for any of this.
Arlene’s Flowers (you may recall the story) is just down the road from me.
PING!!!
“first openly gay, Asian American “
i’ll see that, and raise you a gay, disabled, Asian American.
Oh gawd. Look where this lesbian justice came from.
Before coming to Washington state, she worked for the Archdiocese of Chicago, first as an associate and later as the director of the Peace and Social Justice Office for the Archdiocese of Chicago.
I am so tired of that term.
Why dont they just come out and say Forced Redistribution of Wealth.
The original Catholic meaning of that term has nothing to do with “Forced Redistribution of Wealth”.
LOL!
why are most gay women so damn homely ?
And Mary Yu will replace him?
I assumed political tradition required the Governor to at least try to fill the seat with someone who has the same legal philosophy as the outgoing judge.
Although I am not a spiritual person, I have always believed that the Evangelical Right is the foundation of the American Conservative tradition.
This is premeditated, in-your-face, political taunting from Inslee to Conservatives.
Much more of this and I'll be down to my last doddery cannabis-dependent Hippie...
Inslee is just what Western Washington wants and deserves.
More like Mary Y-ewww.
“Why are most gay women so damn homely?”
Well, after years of no guys asking them out on dates.....
Inslee is a happy idiot. We had a good candidate in Rob McKenna - well, as good as you can get in the PRWS - and he would have been the first Republican governor elected since 1980. But no, we elect a do-nothing congressman to come back home and be a do-nothing governor for as long he wants the job, I presume.
Sad thing is, he’s a malignant happy idiot who is also a coward.
But, he’s progressive, so the masses love him.
You mean the first elected since 2004, since the WA Dems pretty much openly stole the race from winner Dino Rossi.
