I'm not gunna give you the quote again. If you look at that quote objectively, she's talking about her sex, her race, the male sex, and the white race. She said someone of her sex n' race would be better at something than a male member of a specific race. Yes, we normally do tolerate a sexist-racist statement like this from some members of our society. You choose to continue to do that, and I think people who want an important public service position (like this one) should not be given the pass(unless you want all members of society to get the same pass.) Oh, and yes, I do think she was stupid to say it. Like I said before, I think the statement shows enough subtle sexism, and racism to make her inappropriate for this(mainy because we don't have to settle.) If she is allowed to get on that court, a message will be sent to people of her community (and other ones) that it's o.k. to make a sexist-racist statement if you're a member of a minority group. It's 2009, and it's time to stop giving out that message. Unlike the majority of Liberals, I am not being a hypocrite about this.
