An example of racist thinking.

In making judicial decisions, the experience of a wise white man will likely lead to better decision-making than that of a Latina woman.

What a bunch of pompous sexist bigotry.

Here’s another bit of pompous sexist bigotry that I fear goes down a lot easier with supporters of Sotomayor.

“The experience of a wise Latina will likely lead to better decision-making than that of a white man. Which of course is a direct quote from Sotomayor.

If you don’t get the point I’m making, then I think it’s pointless to continue this dialogue.

If you do get the point, then I think we’ve made some progress.
