Justice O'Connor did not choose to put in that 25-year limit. She was compelled to do so by prior SC cases that made it clear that such remedies are NOT constitutional UNLESS they have a deadline to end. Even to argue that the law school's AA was constitutional, she HAD to put a deadline on it.

P.S. I read all 13 of the opinions in both cases, before I went on radio to talk about them, and before I wrote the UPI article. I've got hard reasons, not guesswork, for what I wrote about this pair of decisions.

A welcome voice of sanity in this debate. :)

Yes people, it might help to read the decisions before posting. :)

I know I've posted on these threads, but not substantively. Not until I read them.

Thanks. This is the most helpful analysis by far.
