“...Harvard and its students were perpetuating “racist and sexist stereotypes” by not intentionally hiring minority and female law professors on the basis of their sex or skin color.”

And she and her vapid hubby - through their indescribably awful performance as Cretin-in-Chief and wife thing, have done a superb job of continuing that perpetuation.

When I want intellectual input from African Americans, I turn to Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, Allen West, and many others. They are intelligent and talented. She and he are not.

Bank on it... MO has been p#%$ed off at the world for a long time!

It's funny too because, by her own admission, she has received assistance and special consideration in order to overcome her early disadvantages in life. Now she has more than most minority women and ought to be grateful for the assistance she got and she should be helping others out of their alienation and hostility....so they can ACHIEVE too

Janna Ryan is an attorney. I guarantee that she didn’t write anything so full of malarky.

The left’s philosophy in a nutshell:

“I deserve more because I'm a victim. That makes me better and more deserving than you.”

“You're a victimizer and a racist. You deserve less and the government should take it from you and give it to me because I'm more worthy.”

Carrying signs demanding an “end to racism,” they occupied the dean’s office for 24 hours and demanded that Harvard Law School hire 20 female or minority professors in the next four years as tenured, or tenure-track, professors. Seven of those professors, they insisted, must be black — and four of those seven female.

Harvard listened... and hired Elizabeth Warren. "Minority" and female, 2 out of 3, not bad.

Do I need the "/S" here?

We need race based hiring.

Let us start with the NBA. No more than 12% can be black in accordance their percentage of the population.

That was what the "strike for diversity" was all about ...

... okay, it was all about having a day off and partying, but that's what it was allegedly supposed to be about ...

(The strike was during Barack's days at the school, but the theories and tendencies were already in circulation before that.)

The two biggest Affirmative Action parasites are never going to be satisfied, but the millions they’ll have to live large after their luck runs out in D. C ought to buy them dozens of fellow leeches, who will find it profitable to hang with such disreputable characters.

““Diversity in this country is a good thing,” Mrs. Obama told MSNBC when asked about Sotomayor”

Absolutely. But what you pursue is racism and sexism to benefit your desires.

And, that’s not diversity.

No surprise here. I would love to get a gander at some of Obama's college papers. He would probably come across as something along the lines of this:

Surprised that she hasn’t claimed that jurors and judges are racist because they do not give black lawyers and defendants courtroom victories in order to guarantee equality of outcome.

“Diversity in this country is a good thing,”

Absolutely.

Respectfully, I say absolutely not.

The notion that diversity itself as a goal is politically correct balderdash.

What makes the modern approach to diversity in America "a good thing" in and of itself?

What meaningful "good things" has diversity brought to improve our quality of life beyond what we would otherwise experience?

What advantages and benefits does a modern diverse population bring to a neighborhood, village or town?

What is the basis for thinking that a polyglot population of people who do not hold the same values, think the same way, have the same basic goal and aspirations and pull in the same direction is superior to a more homogeneous population?

The promotion of incompetent, uncaring people may improve diversity but what does it do to improve an organization?

What does the importation of millions of skillless people who cannot support themselves and who end up on welfare and food stamps do to make America a better place?

How does the importation of muslims who despise America and Americans qualify as "a good thing"?

What does the importation of tribal Africans, Haitians, illegal Hispanics do to strengthen America and make it a better place for Americans to live?
