The second paragraph of the WSJrnl's lead article today:

"In a landmark decision with wide-ranging implications for affirmative action across American society, the court ruled that it is legal to give some preferential treatment to disadvantaged minorities, calling the diversity that they bring to education, business and the military necessary to the cultivation of "a set of leaders with legitimacy in the eyes of the citizenry."

A new twist to the idea of repressive tolerance from the election thieves. Is it implausible to think that O'Connor explicitly sees this ruling as counterbalancing some of the damage they did? Randy
