All that schools need to do is use poverty rather than race as their method for classifying students for purposes of balancing. That's it. I can't help but feel there's some unstated problem here, a ghost at the feast. I don't know what it is. Concerns that support for funding the education the children of all the people out of the public purse will evaporate? Concerns about stratification <b>within</b> African American society? That's already happening, too. My mom used to say that the schoolroom was the last kingdom. Could that be it? Are school administrators just accustomed to getting their own way?

J. Dionne's anguish today seen on Real Clear Politics concerning Roberts and Alito. It seems once again that if you stand for the Constitution then you are a "judicial activist"--Why don't these people read the opinions instead of relying on others when they purport to write "objective" commentary?

Exactly. Finally, a little equality for a change. I'm tired of hearing about how a perfectly qualified white guy gets passed up for a spot in college because some horribly unqualified guy had the LUCK of being born black. It's time for white people to demand a little fairness in an already unfair system. I look forward to many more ground breaking 5-4 decisions in the future from what's become my favorite court. “Oh my, here goes those evil conservatives again, wanting to treat people as individual human beings rather than as a member of a “group” or “class” or “protected group.” What’s a civil rights lawyer to do?”
