    What is really a shame is that 4 Justices of the Supreme Court believe believe racial discrimination is constitutional...

    as long as they get to choose the races and make the rules.

    Sotomayor shares the same racist views.

    I believe this decision by the SC was a good one. It was close, 5-4. Two wrote in a manner that could be considered a criticism of the lower court. A third couched his words suggesting that the lower court had little precidence to draw on and that it was proper for the Supreme Court to give guidance.

    And I believe also that a couple of the dissenting positions did go ahead and criticize the handling of the whole thing by the lower court.
