NAACP Head Skeptical Of Judicial Selections (demands that all whites be cut out of the list)

WASHINGTON -- The head of the Arkansas NAACP on Friday challenged 3rd District Rep. John Boozman's commitment to diversity in the judiciary after the congressman announced six candidates for a vacant federal judge position.

Boozman, R-Rogers, forwarded the names of three whites and three blacks to President Bush, who will select one person from that list to replace the late U.S. District Judge George Howard, who was black.

Dale Charles, president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People's state conference said he thought only blacks should have been on the list.

Howard, who held court in the Little Rock-based Eastern District, was the first black federal judge in Arkansas.

Boozman said he looked for the best candidates for the job, regardless of race.

"I recall him saying race would not be his first criteria for a replacement, which I strongly disagree with," Charles said. "Him having said that then gives one the mindset to question whether he believes in diversity."

Hmm, objects to white males? Then he should have absolutely no problem supporting the nomination of either Emilio Garza or Edith Brown Clement.

Lets give him what he wants.

I nominate Dr. Thomas Sowell or Dr. Walter Williams.

You think they’ll like the choice?

I forgot one. A twofer.

Who was that female judge, conservative that W. almost put up the last time?

I cannot remember her name. She’s a black conservative and drives the black moonbats to sputtering, spittling rage.

I think that we are getting a clearer picture about what “diversity” really means. Justice is the potential in this case. The stakes don’t get any higher.

"Dale Charles is a Black Racist."

Lets see now. Checking my black orthodoxy, it seems to say that blacks cannot be racists -- only whites.

Whatever are we to do now?

Barrack O to the rescue. He pledges that he will only appoint judges that had salt and pepper parents. Only Clinton pledges that they will be all black all the time.
NAACP in a quandary.

Yea, that’s her.

Thanks, I just hate brain farts. They are so distracting.

JRB brings their hate juices right straight to the top!

It’s a lovely thing to see.

And she does it with such class.

To annoy all involved, President Bush should scrap the list and appoint an illegal alien to the position. Preferably from Asia.

Actually, these clowns belong in a quarry. One with a lot of water and very deep.

I’m sure the NAACP would have no problem if only white males were suggested to replace a retiring white male federal judge, right? Right?

One or two more jurists like Justice Thomas might just make me happy as can be.
Throw in the trash that skank of a female and maybe one other liberal turd and get two like Thomas and see them really squeal.
