The Final Fruits of Affirmative Action: An Incompetent on the Supreme Court

The Final Fruits of Affirmative Action: An Incompetent on the Supreme Court

 

We now find out, after suffering through all the Obama honking about candidate Sotomayor being some summa c*m laude that she admitted she was a "a product of affirmative action." Another fraud in the leftist camp is exposed.

 

Her own words:

 

"With my academic achievement in high school I was accepted rather readily at Princeton and equally as fast at Yale, but my test scores were not comparable to that of my classmates," she said. "And that's been shown by statistics, there are reasons for that - there are cultural biases built into testing, and that was one of the motivations for the concept of affirmative action to try to balance out those effects."[1]-- Videotaped remarks shed light on Sotomayor by Charlie Savage, New York Times Thursday, June 11, 2009 [Emphasis is mine in all quotes.]

 

Of course, many minorities need an excuse for poor academic performance.

 

“The sad fact is that because of cognitive skill differentials [The Bell Curve[2][3][4]] certain minorities will, on average, not be able to compete effectively in our society so we can expect more ‘affirmative action[5]’ programs from our government. Other minorities will excel. We might even hear that illegal aliens were ‘exploited and abused’ and now deserve some new affirmative action programs provided they will vote with the Democrats. The standardized tests will be outlawed or minimized as they exclude certain minorities by test scores. We saw that in the New Haven Fireman case[6] where, strangely, our nominee flatly slapped down their case. [7] No blacks could pass the test so the levers of reverse racism had to be pushed and Sonia Sotomayor did her part.”[8]— A Bigot is Chosen for the Supremes. Liberalism Celebrates! by rycK

The scholarly work and well-written and researched Bell Curve sifts through the test data and outrages the left as they cannot refute the findings and slobber out the excuse that the tests are biased. The problem with that lie is that when tests are rewritten and reanchored to median = 100 in IQ the same people get the same scores on the tests. This predictable and persistent observation has caused liberals to rise up in slavering hoards and call for the elimination of IQ tests. They claim, quite correctly, that these tests discriminate against certain minorities [not Asians] and that is correct. With the Asian median at 101 and the whites at 100 we find that blacks and Hispanics score 12-18 points lower at the median. The Bell Curve debunks this phony theory with numerous—nay millions—of examples.[9]

So, what to do?? Why, just lie and cover up the truth and sleaze your way into power—the old third world solution to any problem. Given the current facts about Obama and many of his cronies, we can expect lies, sleaze, reverse-discrimination and hatred toward whites and capitalism and they will use, inter alia, cultural biases by incompetents like this Sotomayor to corrupt the legal system.

With lower IQs many cannot compete in our society so we have to lie and cheat to give them some kind of contrived ‘equality’ and settle for the poor results that ensue from this choice. The metrics are clear here. [10]

What else would we expect from cretins like Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and Joe Biden? More sleaze and lies are to come. Be prepared.

[7] “At issue is the action of New Haven, Conn., city officials who threw out a promotion exam because no African-Americans and only two Hispanic firefighters were likely to be made lieutenants or captains based on the results.

Following their decision supporting the city, Sotomayor and her two fellow judges faced criticism from their conservative colleagues on the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York for declining to issue a detailed ruling “http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/politics/wire/sns-ap-us-sotomayor-firefighters,0,4372856.story

Thus, a refutation to this vast array of data must somehow be accomplished.
