Supreme Court poised to outlaw racial
discrimination, again

The Supreme Court on Monday considered the arguments of Harvard and the University of North Carolina justifying their racial discrimination in admissions. The schools will probably lose. They schools argue their racial discrimination (they refuse to call it that, of course) is just one of many factors they consider in admissions. But the data show it’s by far the most important one. For example, at UNC a white person with a given set of test scores, grade point average and other factors, with 10% chance of getting admitted, would have a 98% chance with the same qualifications if he were black.

And yet, the Dems and their evil minions are pushing more and more and MORE systemic racism against whites and asians into EVERY possible nook and cranny of our government and public systems.

Affirmative Action was never a means to end disparities caused by discrimination; it's purpose is to ensure that racial discrimination exists in perpetuity. The real question is when will the Left allow blacks to gain equal footing with whites. Its the classic soft bigotry of low expectations.

Of course they'll still discriminate. They'll just be more sneaky about it.

The Supreme Court has the opportunity to end this 70+ year unconstitutional racial favoritism once and for all. It has been used as a political and financial weapon by the Democrats and has exacerbated racial tensions and been a drag on our cultural and economic well-being as a nation. Free this country from this nightmare.

When do I see my reparations? I was rejected by several top-tier business schools who, unashamedly, told me that they reserved spaces for minorities and women, even if they were less qualified by numeric measurements. They not only discriminated against me (and other white males), they BRAGGED about it. The school I did get into was very proud of their 313 seat limit they maintained for decades. But then they added an extra 20 seats that year to allow preferred-status students who were didn't make the first cut because the acceptance rate went sideways on them. So they LOWERED their standards to get the "balance" they were looking for by skipping over more-qualified candidates. They have the gall to send me requests for donations every year. I have never given 1 penny.

And it will be fun to see it struck down by the most diverse Court in history. I only hope the verdict delivery can be scheduled to coincide with one of those weeks when most of the country is sub-freezing or in a blizzard.

Extrapolating from Glenn Youngkin’s win in the Virginia governor’s race, I predicted a year ago that the GOP would flip about 46 seats in the House in the midterm elections, and two or three in the Senate. So here we are a year later, on the verge of those midterms. How’s my prediction holding up? Quite well, thank you. The Real Clear Politics aggregation of pundit predictions says the GOP will pick up between 12 and 47 seats.The first – the 12 seat prediction – is clearly from a transexual-grooming Democrat pot legalization pundit with purple hair

As reported in numerous outlets including this site, a man came forward last week alleging that he blackmailed the Democrat candidate challenging conservative firebrand Lauren Boebert for Colorado’s Third Congressional District, while the candidate was a city councilman in Aspen. The two daily newspapers – both overtly liberal – refused to run the story even while numerous citizens brought it to their attention. The Dem candidate is Adam Frisch, and the Congresswoman he is campaigning to unseat is Lauren Boebert. Frisch presents himself as a high-minded moderate intellectual, but his initial broadcast email drumming up support name-called Boebert, in junior high fashion, “Boebert the Betrayer.”

The story in Glitter Gulch this week is one of blackmail, video cameras, small-time and big-time politics, sex, corruption and, of course, money. But the local newspapers refuse to report the story, apparently because they want a bad guy to win. Here’s the story, as reported initially in Breitbart and now picked up by half a dozen outlets. Democrat Adam Frisch is running to unseat conservative firebrand Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District. Frisch was an Aspen city councilman for eight years, stepping down in 2019.

Denver has its share of vagrants. The rule is evidently that you can illegally camp on the sidewalk and poop in the gutter until a lot of people complain. Once dozens or hundreds of people complain – they don’t publish what the requisite number is – the city will tell the vagrants they have two weeks to shuffle down the road to trash some other site. What the vagrants then do, naturally, is leave for a few days and then come back to the same place again,
Free stuff is a lousy way to address wealth disparity 14 replies
Posted by Big Bopper 9/5/2022 10:44:00 AM Post Reply
I’m not convinced that wealth disparity is a problem. I do firmly believe, mind you, that the world is rich enough now that no one should starve or freeze to death, at least not involuntarily, and that the injured or diseased should be given medical treatment. In America, we’ve achieved that, and more. Poor people in America not only have plenty to eat (as is evident from their physiques) but also have automobiles, air conditioning, color cable television, smart phones, and free tuition. The wealth disparity complaint is not about starvation or freezing. It’s the complaint that some people have far more luxuries than others.
“Doctor” Jill’s trillion-dollar

First Lady Jill Biden asked to be called “Doctor” after her husband was elected president. She’s not actually a doctor. She’s also not nearly as smart as one and so she thought the title made her look like she was, at least to stupid people who don’t know better. The justification for “Doctor” Jill’s request to be called a doctor was she has an EdD. That’s a doctoral degree in education. It’s a little like a PhD but much easier to obtain. No EdD in the entire universe could pass an introductory college chemistry or physics course.

“My body, my choice” is a favorite slogan of abortion advocates. It’s thin gruel. To the extent this slogan is an analysis and not just a chant, it assumes the conclusion. It assumes that a fetus anywhere from hours old to nearly born is simply owned in a legal property sense by the mother in whom it resides. But that’s the whole question, right? That question is not answered by just determining the location of the fetus. If it were, then a mother wrapping her arms around her baby or toddler or husband could make the same argument; “My body, my choice.”

The old news of the leak of Justice Alito’s draft opinion last May overruling Roe v. Wade has now been swamped by the new news of the Supreme Court’s final opinion a month later. That final opinion, almost identical to Alito’s draft and joined by five of the nine Justices, held that Roe was wrong. As a matter of fact and law, the Constitution never mentions, alludes to, or implies a Constitutional right to abortion. (Notice my use of the word “abortion” to identify abortion. Because “abortion” has a bad connotation, advocates of it seek to rebrand or euphemize the procedure with wooly obscurity like

Britain was blessed, cursed and obsessed with a controversial politician named Boris Johnson who had a good brain and mostly good policies but a bad personality. For the latter, he’s been canned. His own crew have jumped ship, effectively dragging their captain overboard with them. Don’t feel sorry for Johnson. He’s a bit of an jerk, he got caught up in some ridiculous little scandals, he got very little backing from his friends whom he backed very little in their own times of need, he had a habit of saying attention-grabbing but inappropriate things, he’s a second-rate womanizer, and he has funny hair.

After the Supreme Court’s decision saying that abortion is a matter for state legislatures to sort out, and not something addressed by the Constitution, the hard-left mayor of Chicago in a public speech spat “f*** Clarence Thomas!” (Days later, this same Democrat mayor bemoaned the toxicity of current political discussions.) Note that this is not some bomb-throwing, Antifa/Democrat hoodlum, but is the mayor of one of the biggest cities in America. (OK, I’ll admit that she could be both.) The mayor didn’t bother to tell us what part of the Constitution guarantees abortion on demand. But, no matter.

Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney praised House Speaker Nancy Pelosi as a "tremendous leader" during an interview on Tuesday, just over a week before the Midterm Elections when Cheney’s replacement will be selected. "I want to say a word about Speaker Pelosi. Everyone knows she is a liberal from San Francisco [and] I am a conservative from Wyoming, there are many, many issues, maybe most issues, on which we disagree. But I think that she is a tremendous leader," Cheney said at the City Club in Cleveland with PBS’s Judy Woodruff. "I’ve watched her up close. She is a leader of historic consequence," the Republican added.
Washington D.C. to Legalize Public Urination 33 replies

When your whole city’s a toilet, why not embrace it? The D.C. Council is expected to take the first of two votes Tuesday on a massive rewrite of its criminal code. If passed, the bill would eliminate most mandatory minimum sentences, allow for jury trials in almost all misdemeanor cases and reduce the maximum penalties for offenses such as burglaries, carjackings and robberies. Assume that there’ll be a lot more burglaries, carjackings and robberies. Not to mention public urination. Mayor Muriel Bowser and Police Chief Robert Contee III are pushing back hard on parts of the plan they don’t agree with, and say the council is rushing to beat an arbitrary deadline.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), who lost her primary for reelection this year, has endorsed Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) against Republican J.D. Vance in Ohio’s United States Senate race. During a panel discussion with PBS NewsHour’s Judy Woodruff, Cheney was asked if she would support Vance against Ryan in the Ohio Senate race, to which she responded, “I would not vote for J.D. Vance.” “So if you were a Buckeye State voter, you’d be voting for Tim Ryan?” Woodruff asked. Cheney responded, saying “I would.” Cheney also called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) a “tremendous leader” and “a leader of historic consequence.”

President Unity is raising money for Democrats by trying to claim that Republican Governor Ron DeSantis is “Trump incarnate” and scaring senior citizens that Republicans will take away Social Security and Medicare benefits. His riffs on the campaign trail would be amusing if they weren’t so predictable and stale. Democrats are facing a big ole red wave next week and they are running scared. That includes the head of the party, Joe Biden, who is claiming that the midterm elections aren’t a referendum, they are a choice. Unfortunately for Biden, that’s not the truth. Midterm elections are always a referendum on the party in control and this one is no different.
