I looked at the figures and Ive already researched this shit prior, in excrutiating detail. I have a folder with over 200 links to various information on this. I always let you people bait me in to wasting 2 hours on a post when proving you incorrect doesnt do any good... then personal attacks just result.
I dont just look at one article when I want to find out more on a subject, I make a conscious effort to educate myself thoroughly. Ill let the people that want to do that, do it for themselves.

Why is it that non-leftist who disagree with leftists ON PRINCIPLES are automatically assumed to be racists or bigots by leftists?

I wonder if you'd use that same language around your african american friends...that is, if you have any.
I actually picked up that language from an African American writer.
Quote:
how about you back up your *women, blacks and lawyers DO support her* claim by citing some groups that have pledged support for her
Well since I am not one to rely on group think, I will give you a few examples from individuals as well as groups... First, here is a quote from an African American, female lawyer who supports Justice Brown; "Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates, and our ability to control our destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege, war in the streets, unapologetic expropriation of property, the precipitous decline of the rule of law, the rapid rise of corruption, the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit..." - Janice Rogers Brown, California Supreme Court Justice Makes ya' wonder why the left despises her so much, too much of an independant thinker perhaps? ********************************* Some women's commentaries, Borking Janice Brown, by Susanna Dokupil Justice for Justice Brown by Debra Saunders Post by Justene Adamec A Judicial Candidate Feminists Should Support by Tammy Ku No surprise from this woman. ********************************* Lawyers; From a woman attorney - Marni Soupcoff, Brown is Worth Fighting For Liberal law professors such as Gerald Uelman of Santa Clara University and Stephen Barnett of UC Berkeley's Boalt Hall School of Law endorse her confirmation. The Institute for Justice, a public interest law firm supports her. "We know Justice Brown to be a person of high intelligence, unquestioned integrity, and even-handedness. Since we are of differing political beliefs and perspectives, Democratic, Republican and Independent, we wish especially to emphasize what we believe is Justice Brown's strongest credential for appointment to this important seat on the D.C. Circuit: her open-minded and thorough appraisal of legal argumentation- even when her personal views may conflict with those arguments." - Letter From Bi-Partisan Group Of 15 California Law Professors To Orrin G. Hatch, 10/15/03 "Much has been written about Justice Brown's humble beginnings, and the story of her rise to the California Supreme Court is truly compelling. But that alone would not be enough to gain our endorsement for a seat on the federal bench. We believe that Justice Brown is qualified because she is a superb judge. We who have worked with her on a daily basis know her to be an extremely intelligent, keenly analytical, and very hard working. We know that she is a jurist who applies the law without favor, without bias, and with an even hand." - Letter From A Bi-Partisan Group Of 12 Of Justice Brown's Current And Former Judicial Colleagues [Including All Of Her Former Colleagues On The Court Of Appeal, Third Appellate District And Four Current Members Of The California Supreme Court] To Orrin G. Hatch, 10/16/03 Here's a public endorsement which appeared in The Sacramento Bee by Vance Raye, an associate justice on California's 3rd District Court of Appeal. A commentary by someone who was a member of the California State Bar, Steven Laib - Approve Janice Brown for the Federal Appeals Court ********************************* ... and a few comments from some African Americans; Horace Cooper, a senior fellow with the Centre for New Black Leadership has this to say. Thomas Sowell supports her in a three part commentary "A Lynch Mob Gathers Around Justice Janice Rogers Brown," part one part two part three Here's something from an African American organization
-------------------- To call humans 'rational beings' does injustice to the term, 'rational.' Humans are capable of rational thought, but it is not their essence. Humans are animals, beasts with complex brains. Humans, more often than not, utilize their cerebrum to rationalize what their primal instincts, their preconceived notions, and their emotional desires have presented as goals - humans are rationalizing beings.
