Sounds like it had more to do with your respect towards excellent work skills??? Not so much personality.

I had some great Latinas, but there were also some great white men. It all had to do with personalities.
Why did Pat Buchannon and others say that she was an Affarmitive Action nominee?
The question is still out there, backing away from it doesn't make it untrue.
And....What about C.Thomas?
Remember every liberal news media outlet blasting the sh*t out of him..saying he was only picked because "Hes was black"..WTF
liberals are so sad.

Former Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., lashed out at Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor Thursday for her remarks suggesting that "wise Latinas" are better decision makers than white men.
Appearing on CNN, Tancredo, known mainly for his staunch opposition to giving illegal immigrants amnesty and citizenship rights, talked about Sotomayor's activism on behalf of La Raza, an immigrant rights group whose name translates literally to "The Race." He called it "a Latino KKK without the hoods or the nooses."
Misquote garbage. Do yourself a favor and read something outside the nutty world of fringe Neo Con blogs and websites.

You accuse me of backing away from a subject, which I didn't but you keep doing the same thing. A typical ploy by a CD'er who chooses to ignore the facts. I see you are still not answering the question...you keep refering to C. Thomas. As I said in my previous posts, the GOP assumes that Affirmitave action is not in play when they AGREE with someone on their side.
When a minority is a democrat, immediately the cries of "they only got here because of Affirmative Action" are started.
Again, ignoring the subject doesn't make it go away.
We ALL know that many people who break the law are not convicted of anything and not in prison. The name that comes to mind off the top of my head is Dick Cheney..........along with Rumsfeld, Condi Rice, and many of Cheney's inner circle.
So you contention that Thomas did nothing wrong because he was not "convicted" means NOTHING.
If Cheney wasn't drunk at the time, he is the most incredibly careless hunter in the history of mankind.
When you hunt quail like they were doing, you form a line and walk across the field to flush the birds, and shoot the birds that rise and fly in front of you. In order to shoot his hunting companion, he had to be shooting at 90 degrees to the line of march.
Has nothing to do with this thread, but you asked. "Accidents" can be avoided if you possess common sense and utilize it. Cheney, obviously, sadly, did not.
Ever thought of the possibility his hunting partner got out of line? Maybe went too far ahead of the group? Of course you havent. You dont think. Why else would the person that got shot apologize?

Yes, YOU are indeed sad
You are backing away from the topic. The topic of this thread is about whether or not what she said was racist. Don't try and change the subject. The words that she spoke are out there for everyone to see. Trying to deny that she spoke them and veer off topic is just an attempt to obfuscate the issue.

She's not a racist if she was acknowledging that a broader range of experiences leads to better informed judgments.

Sounds like a statement from an egocentric, narcissistic, bigoted judge to me, or just one of the many members of La Raza maybe.
