Supreme Court

Mine, Too

Barnicle's head is going to explode unless guys like Scarborough and Buchanan put Judge Sotomayor's "Latina woman" comments in context:

Buchanan's new column, for example, doesn't:

Like Obama, himself a beneficiary of affirmative action, she thinks "Latina women," because of their life experience, make better judicial decisions than white men, that discrimination against white men to advance people of color is what America is all about, that appellate courts are "where policy is made" in the United States. [...]

Liberal law professor and Supreme Court expert Jeff Rosen of The New Republic reports, after talking to prosecutors and law clerks, that Sotomayor covers up her intellectual inadequacy by bullying from the bench.

The lady is a lightweight.

Yeah, Buchanan is just the lovable old uncle on MSNBC, isn't he? Remember his Whitey Rules column a year ago? Here's Buchanan's reaction to then-Senator Obama's historic Philadelphia Address:

It is the same old con, the same old shakedown that black hustlers have been running since the Kerner Commission... [...]

America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.

And Barnicle is surprised by the spurious and race-baiting views of his fellow Morning Joe panelists?
