It won’t be long before we hear complaints from the feministas and the race hustlers that Bush has chosen a white guy for the Supreme Court.
Tough.
I’m sure I’m not the only person who thinks it is both sexist and racist to assume that only women or minorities are capable of judging issues related to women and minorities.

Bush is announcing his selection of John Roberts of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals to replace Sandra Day O’Connor.
Needless to say, I am disappointed. I guess he didn’t see that I was willing – and qualified – to take the position.
Plenty on that interloper Roberts from Michelle Malkin. And, of course, from Prof. Reynolds.
Update: In an altogether unsurprising development, Senator Schumer has made clear he won’t settle for Roberts receiving the same treatment from the Judiciary Committee that nominees like, say, Ginsberg received. It’s gonna be ugly.
Update 2: Even if I knew nothing else about the man, based solely on the groups already lining up to oppose him, I’d support his nomination.
