The bigoted Wise Latina herself a product of reverse discrimination

No wonder she defends it with such political rather than judicial slant. She’s been spoonfed all her life and WOULDNT EVEN BE IN THE JUDICIARY OTHERWISE

Sonia knows she's inferior and that the only way she could ever amount to anything is if people smarter and more talented than her are hogtied and left by the side of the road.

Its important to note the pure idiocy of the appeals court ruling that overturned the ban in the first place. “The appeals court says the ban puts an extraordinary burden on those who have to mount a long expensive campaign if they want to protect it”. Basically they said that BAMN is too poor to lose.

Soto would prefer to use the original Constitution to wipe her arse with, while re-writing it to suit her political needs.

Because the decision was 6-2 maybe her influence will be weakened by her outburst. The wise Latina may have chosen poorly.

So basically, Scalia gave Sotominor a majority STFU.

Without quotas, she certainly wouldn’t have her current lifetime gig.

Shocker - An affirmative action Justice, appointed by an affirmative action President, supports affirmative action.

Heard that Sotomayor insisted on reading her entire, 58-page dissent when today’s decision was announced. What a funfest that must have been. It was longer than the four opinions in support of the majority.

Put another way, you know you’re on the wrong side of the argument when Stephen Breyer sides with Clarence Thomas. But of course, the Wise Latina knows best, and we’re stuck with her and Kagan for another 25 or 30 years.

The refined evil is when highest scoring whites and Asians are excluded entirely in order to put the highest scoring preferred races against the second or third tier whites and Asians. Whenever you see “other factors considered in order to secure a well rounded, diverse body” this is often in play.
