		<description>I certainly hope she did benefit. That was the entire point after all. And I fervently wish that she displaced a white male. One wonders how many classes Barnes made it through by social advancement.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;MapleStreet Says: She graduated second in her class at Princeton.  I wonder if she could have made it in a **REAL** law school like Regents Univ&lt;/blockquote&gt;


Oh my God, I think one of my ribs just snapped from laughing.  Yeah, Regents is top-notch.  They believe in the death penalty, but when practicing mock trials they refer to the sentence as &quot;smiting&quot;.  In fact, the only issue I&#039;ve ever heard about with Regents Law grads is that court stenographers sometimes complain about the &quot;speaking in tongues&quot;.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Johnintexas Says:
246/247/249 More name-calling. OK. Why not? That&#039;s typical liberal-speak. Feel free to call me a racist; I don&#039;t care. What you CAN&#039;T do is prove that I&#039;m wrong. I&#039;m giving you the hard truth of life in America today. Whether you choose to blow me off is your business. We&#039;ll see who&#039;s right come 2010, 2012 . . . and when the white-Conservative mob takes to the street.&lt;/em&gt;

It&#039;s not namecalling when your biases do come out. Why bother to play the race card? You make it too easy to call you a racist, when you&#039;re spouting off Negro, white-Conservative mob, etc. You fail to see the contributions of African-Americans to our society and you dismiss them as nothing more than D or F students who only got a handout. You know there&#039;s a lot more to your history you are missing intentionally...

You know who invented the traffic light? That&#039;s right, Garrett Morgan, an African-American.

What about the gas mask that saved many of our troops against chemical warfare in WWI? That was Garrett Morgan...

Elijah McCoy who gave his name for the term &quot;the Real McCoy&quot;, oil-dripping cup for trains...

Lewis Lattimer who invented the carbon filament for light bulbs...

George Washington Carver who helped to rejuvenate the South&#039;s economy with his plant products...

Madame C. J. Walker, a highly successful entrepeneur

tHE PACEMAKER? Otis Boykin

Dr. Patricia. E. Bath - pioneered a certain type of eye surgery

Live and die by your stereotypical portrait of the African-American...it&#039;s not name-calling when we see it as such.</description>

		<description>This candidate has more judicial experience than any other candidate from recent presidents, and she is being classified as an &quot;affirmative action&quot; candidate, isn&#039;t that exactly what the &quot;right&quot; said about President Obama?

1) You are a racist

Deductive proof.

		<description>it&#039;s amazing how the &quot;right&quot; thinks. one wonders where they get their brains. 

oh, right, not in an ivy league school, for sure. Karl Rove who claimed &quot;he knows a lot of stupid people going to ivy school&quot; went to the venerable University of Utah, where he remained a student only on a part-time basis to avoid the draft (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Rove)

and those two guys claiming summa cum laude is nothing just to put down Ms Sotomayor? 
Fred Barnes graduated from the University of Virginia (not an ivy school) without honors, not even a cum, on a silly major called &quot;history&quot; against Ms Sotemayor&#039;s summa. 
Bill Bennett graduated from a school called &quot;Williams College&quot;, (his personal school?), evidently not an ivy league school, and also without honors. 

I wish these people should look inside first before screaming &quot;bloody hell&quot; on others. Btw, Mr Bennett is also a compulsive, high-stakes gambler who lost millions in Las Vegas (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Bennett). way to go for a conservative, Catholic loudmouth! talk about horrible values!!</description>

		<description>One last time for the record: Princeton is a private university and is not subject to &quot;affirmative action&quot; laws. Judge Sotomayor was first appointed by G.H.W. Bush. So, if Judge Sotomayor ever benefited from &quot;affirmative action&quot;? It was Chimpy&#039;s Daddy who done it.</description>

		<description>Just when you think the Reichwhiners have reached rock-bottom? Some moron from Texas decides to chime in. Can we just make them secede now?

BTW, &quot;John&quot;, you&#039;re a subhuman POS and really should consider removing yourself from society.</description>

I wonder if she could have made it in a **REAL** law school like Regents Univ.</description>
