The Unbearable Whiteness of Being Maureen Dowd
Columnist brings attention to white-run Times, media’s racial double-standard.
(Page 2 of 3)
So how does the Times stable of Op-Ed columnists stack up against the standards “White Mo” Dowd sets for the rest of us? You know, one’s race being critical in order “to bring a fresh perspective” and avoid the “disgrace” of being “stocked with white men.”
Of the eleven columnists the Times advertises as its team of Op-Ed page writers, nine are whites. Of those nine, seven are — ouch! — the disgracefully whitest of white men! Which is another way of saying 81% of the Times Op-Ed columnists are white (White Mo included) and 77% of the columnist team is, to use White Mo’s phrase about the Supreme Court, “stocked with white men” — guys like Frankly White Rich who are as white as sheets. If one is obsessed with viewing everyone and everything in America through the prism of race, then the 88% white New York Times editorial board and the white paper’s stable of 81% white columnists clearly don’t read their own editorials. No wonder Black Bob Herbert is so cranky all the time. One of the two black tokens on the Op-Ed page, Black Bob is forced to work with more white guys than David Duke. Black Bob would actually see more black faces if his white bosses let him take the company limo and its black driver over to New Haven to catch the next five-alarm. As for a wise Latina or Latino on the page? Nada.
That Times Editorial Board 15-2 ratio, however, is precisely the kind of thing that supposedly drives White Mo crazy. Or at least when it involves the Supreme Court or New Haven firemen and not her own turf. She somehow must hope the rest of us have forgotten that neither White Mo nor the whiteys writing those Times editorials with White Rosie wanted the only black man now sitting on the US Supreme Court to be there at all. Justice Clarence Thomas’s very nomination, the Times foamed at the time in language worthy of The Birth of a Nation, was designed to “incite.” Got that? You don’t wanna put any black man on the Court who upsets the white massa’s of the Times by going the uppity route.
So too did White Mo’s white editorialist sheet mates burn an editorial cross or two to denigrate Miguel Estrada, the Bush choice for the U.S. Court of Appeals in the District of Columbia. Fearing the Harvard-educated legal star and Latino Mr. Estrada would get to the point that Sonia Sotomayor is at today — the Times demanded that it was both “compelling” and “necessary” to defeat a Hispanic man. Their unsurprising sentiments were the same as those of their white male Democratic allies on the Senate Judiciary Committee. In an internal Senate Democratic memo, Mr. Estrada was described as “dangerous” because he was “Latino.” Interestingly, this foreshadowed the thinking designed to keep Lieutenant Ben Vargas out of a New Haven fire captaincy in spite of his having passed the required test. Come to think of it, since the Times was successful in its compelling need to keep Mr. Estrada off the bench, maybe they could have a disparate impact on their Op Ed page by making him their resident Latino columnist?
Judging the entire world through the eyes of race must be something of a juggling routine if you work for the white boys of the Times. In 1900 the paper’s white editorial board under the leadership of owner Adolph Ochs (or “Adolph the White” as we’ll Dowdize the family ancestor of today’s white owners) was ranting about “the menace of the rule of blacks.” In 1991, the descendants of Adolph the White believed putting a black man on the Supreme Court to rule was inciting, if not menacing as Adolph warned. Inciting to what was left to the imagination. Still, at least give Adolph’s heirs credit for staying loyal to principle. White Mo must arrive at work with a flask of Irish whiskey just to get her liberal white guilt complex through the white day.
Then again, maybe not. Irish whiskey might remind of the embarrassing biographical nugget that she herself is said to be the white love child of a white male Irish cop and a white woman, both of modest means. (As a minor Washington celebrity, White Mo makes the prints on occasion for reasons much other than her column, various parts of her white life whitefully displayed.) This is a problem at the race and class conscious Times, threatening to cast White Mo in a harsh light that is unfashionably Palinesque. Which may explain why the youthful Dowd of the 1960s is said to have denied the fact, believing identifying White Dad as a White Pol was somehow more upscale than admitting to the fact he was a White Cop. Doubtless it is uncomfortably related to the reason White Mo and her pals are so upset by Sister Sarah. White Mo looks at Sarah and sees — young White Mo! Eeeeeek! White Trash alert at the Times! Ohhhhhhh noooooooooooooo!
The fact that White Mo still works at the Times does come as a bit of a surprise in the wake of her “White Man’s Last Stand” column. Calling attention to the white sheets who actually run the paper is surely not appreciated. It is a rare thing to see a white girl who has spent a professional and personal life courting white males bite the proverbial white male hand that enables said white girl to live in the white enclaves of an overwhelmingly black city — and not only survive but thrive!
Her frustration is perhaps understandable. If you and the paper you write for pretend to a racially advanced view of the world, yet the paper is still owned by a white guy descendant of Adolph the White while the editorial board and columnist section has a “mostly whites only” sign hanging on the workplace door, your brain might short circuit too. Somewhere in her soul, you just know White Mo longs to be Linda Chavez.
It is remarkable when you think of it. To get Dowdy about it, White Mo’s social life has occasionally made the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column over the years. Why? Because she was linked to — yes - white guys. These stories never tie her to, say, the rakish and black Marion Barry. No Black Diddy for White Mo. It was white Barbara Walters who did the deed with the first black Senator of the 20th century — a Republican to boot. White Mo just always popped into the gossip columns displaying this thing for white guys. There was the white actor Michael Douglas episode. Douglas, the son and grandson of white Russians, is now said to be married, interestingly enough, to a white Welsh woman. There was time with the white male Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing. The Great White Sork at least wrote a part for a black person, albeit as the president’s body guy, not the president.
Then there were the stories about White Mo and Times white guy, the now Ex-Executive Editor Howell Raines, he of the Blair Niche Project.
For those readers who came in late, White Raines hired a young writer of African-American descent named Jayson Blair not because of his writing skills but because, in typical left-wing fashion dating back to slavery, White Raines judged people by skin color. A fellow white Timesman allowed that race was indeed “the decisive factor” in White Raines’s decision to hire Black Blair. The niche the Black Blair was discovered to have filled was plagiarism flavored with fabrication, and the resulting scandal cost White Mo’s white male friend White Raines his job.
Current white Times owner Arthur “Sheets” Sulzburger, Adolph the White’s designated white man, moved quickly to contain the damage. Befitting the white descendant of the original white family patriarch who owned the paper when its similarly white editorialists were foaming about “the menace of the rule of blacks” Sheets replaced White Raines with one Bill Keller. Keller is, you guessed it, a white guy so white you couldn’t pick him out of a snowstorm. Sheets was taking no chances about that “menace of the rule of blacks” thing great-white-grandpa Adolph furrowed his brow over. No sir. Not at The Times. Not on his white life. To reinforce the fact managing editor Jill White — ah — sorry, that would be Abramson, would be brought in, she too a whiter shade of pale. Abramson had co-written a hit-piece on the infidel black Clarence Thomas, which made her an especially white choice to replace the late Gerald Boyd, a rare Times executive who was actually black but alas was dragged under by the racial obsession of White Raines. That must never happen again, white?
What’s a white girl to do with all this whiteness in her life? What else? Party with white people!
According to the news reports of the Obama inaugural period, the guest list for White Mo’s Georgetown house party had more white guys standing obediently in line to get in the door than are still active on the Ku Klux Klan’s roster. The White Man’s real last stand, it seems, was at White Mo’s. The line included whiteys Tom Hanks, Tom Brokaw, Larry David, David Geffen, Rahm Emanuel, Andrew Sullivan (the latter accompanied by someone appropriately named Tone) and…well, you get the idea. There were surely some blacks or Latinos there in a capacity other than serving the canapés, even if they didn’t get their names in the press. No word if the Latino let through the door was Carlos Slim, the green Mexican the Times has been forced to rely on as, what else, a White Knight?
One wonders with all this inner turmoil over white men why White Mo ever accepted her White Joe. Sorry, that would be the Pulitzer Prize, named, but of course, for the white male newspaper baron Joseph Pulitzer. The stories that won White Mo her White Joe revolved around White Mo’s intuitive understanding of a White Willy in the White House. Shocking! But come on. Seriously. Can’t this woman scoop out black guys? Latinos? Where’s the White Joe for filling us in on the sex life of the Yellow Kim Jong Il? Why no fling with, say, the fling-crazy Los Angeles Mayor Antonio “Brown Tony” Villaraigosa? Its always white guy, white guy, white guy with White Mo.

Thankfully the credibility of the “paper of record” has been lost to inflation (it is like pennies, being worth more as cellulose scrap than its cost). The glossier weekly’s have also become nothing more than a left wing screed with less circulation than a supermarket checkout tabloid. Yet some still cling to and demean themselves by bothering to read the likes of someone who fantasizes about Rush Limbaugh. “Apprehend” them all you want, they will continue to get away with these “hate” crimes due to the fact that they are pleading insanity to a very sympathetic jury, and knowing full well their trial will be probably be adjucated by a very wise latina judge.
El Rey| 7.21.09 @ 7:14AM
One of the dirty little secrets of Leftists is that they actually do believe that blacks and Hispanics are inferior. But then again, the liberals also think that they are superior to anyone who even disagrees with them.
So naturally, the burdens of affirmative action & racial quotas and other dysfunction social policies (school busing, failed public schools, etc. ) should fall on the middle class, never them.
It is no wonder then that the favorite form of government of the Left -- or if you will, the liberals, the progressives -- is rule by the elite, namely themselves.

Dowd et all don't have to play by their own rules---because their liberals!!! Busing your children across town for school---liberals vote yes, send theirs to private schools. They are for the death tax---but inherit their wealth through pass through trusts. Latinas for Supreme Court yes, stuff their Latino in committee--a threat. Endless.

Mr. Lord,
When I see a "blue bag", (the NYT gets delivered in a blue plastic bag on driveways) in a neighbors front yard, I consider them 1/3 newsers.
They only get 1/3 of the news----that appeals to democrats only.
I have a relative who works at CNN and they are always saying "why don't you give CNN a chance" or "How do you know they are biased if you don't ever watch".
EVERY time I tune in, I get re-affirmation of their incredible bias. Here was the Sotomayor (The Wise Lie-tina) discussion board:
Wolf Blitzer
Candy Crowley
Gloria Borger
Jeffrey Toobin
John King
Some lady from CAP--former Clinton staffer--isn't CAP, Podesta's firm part of the Soros cabal.
and last but not least, a guy who produces commercials for republican candidates.
It was like watching a DNC meeting with EVERY DNC talking point being thrown out there.
I watch a lot less Fox News than I used to because I got bored with one network.
IF CNN really wanted to get back to "real journalism", they would start with investigating where Obama's college transcripts went.
Or why he has two hospitals listed as his "birth place".
How about finding our how he got his cocaine?
How about asking him why he sought the New Party support in 1996?
How about asking him about Frank?
How about interviewing the two candidates for state senate he had removed from the primaries?
How about reporting on his Czars and Czarina's?
*Yawn*.
How can we make the NYT disappear faster? ABC TV News (watching Stepphie and Diane pimp O's Healthcare this morning--blech--not an ounce of truth but a 16 pound bag of White House excrement talking points)?
I believe targeting local news is the answer. The $700,000 Phoenix Social Security bash was uncovered by a local Phoenix ABC station.
Let's call it the local General Manager Project. Since we are already boycotting network news, we are in essence boycotting the local affiliate. Let it be know to the GM's. MAYBE, they will send someone to Columbia University to find someone, anyone who remembers this fraud-in-chief.
Other than that, I just got back from Canada---maybe I'll try purchasing a NYT out of a box with those Canadian coins.

Our Birth Certificate Sealed In A Vault by order of the Governor of Hawaii President, and his sychophantic, sleazy, money grubbing minnions, in the Congress, want to ram their Soviet Style Medical Plan down our throats. They, however, will keep their gold plated, super fantastic, it's for ME and not for THEE, Health Care Plan. Anybody want some cake?

Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 8:47AM
I love White MoDo's comment that a "Latina" would "spice up" the Supreme Court. No doubt White MoDo has already extended an invitation to "Spicy Sotomayor" to White MoDo's next White Georgetown soiree, where the darling little Latina will no doubt regale the White A-list Guests with a wonderfully spicy rendition of La Cucaracha.
I understand White MoDo will supply the sombrero and castinets if "Spicy Sotomayor" agrees to make authentic salsa before the party and then clean the kitchen afterward.
I also have it on good authorithy that White MoDo asked "Spicy" Sotomayor if, since she'll be in a White neighborhood anyway, she could do maybe something with the unruly hedges out front.
Great piece and CLASSIC liberalism on display. Kudos to you, Mr. Lord, even if you are white.
I have one white bone to pick: White Modo ain't pretty. First off, I'm guessing that, despite her dance card always being whitely filled, her, uh, heart is mustier, danker and emptier than Al Capone's secret vault. Second, she's beginning to look like a Jack-O-Lantern left on the porch well into November, if you get my drift. Third, her voice is, without a doubt, the whiniest, nasalist, most ennui-marinated twang I have ever heard. Fingernails on a blackboard have nothing on MoDo.
But I understand. It's a white thing.
Lamont Cranston| 7.21.09 @ 8:57AM
Fox News is conservative but they seem to have the white face problem as well. Not a lot of minorities there either, though they do have Juan Williams.
Geoff| 7.21.09 @ 9:05AM
Uh, Lamont - who know that evil learks in the hearts of men - - now you've got me wondering just when Juan Williams "works" for National Public Radio, if, indeed he does...
For those who continue who call Fox a "conservative" network, please, an observation: Why do liberals such as NPR's Mara Liasson and the aforementioned Juan Williams continue to appear as "regulars"? Why does self-described Democratic voter Chris Wallace get to host his own Sunday show, one of the most important among cable and network news programs? Ditto Greta Van Susteren, and Geraldo: how do liberals get their own gigs? And how about Bob Beckel, Susan Estrich, Terry McAullife, David Corn, Katrina vanden Heuvel, Mort Kondracke and the many, many other liberal Democrats who regularly appear on Fox news and commentary programs? How’bout Bill Clinton’s buddy Lanny Davis, Eleanor Clift of Newsweek? If Fox is so biased, why do these people, as well as Democratic congressmen and senators, appear as guests? And why have the Clintons and others (McAullife among them) praised all pre-election coverage, while surveys found that Fox was, indeed, the fairest of ‘em all?
It’s the CONTRAST between Fox and the others that makes Fox APPEAR more conservative – the others are so blatant. And thoroughly sickening.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 9:14AM
Geoff:
Right on the money.
Not to mention Fox's biggest prime-time ratings grabber, Bill O'Reilly - he puts his right-wing foot in, he pulls his right-wing foot out, he puts his left-wing foot in, he pulls his left-wing foot out, he does the "outrage" hokey pokey and he turns himself around.
That's what he's all about.
tonypal| 7.21.09 @ 9:30AM
Lamont:
Apart from the fact that you're wrong - try watching Fox News for a day and you'll learn something - perhaps Roger Ailes hires people based on competence rather than skin color. Now there's a novel idea.
Geoff| 7.21.09 @ 9:38AM
Just wish all those blondes at Fox would use a different "rinse" or something on their hair -- they all look so alike....
Yet, as Tonypal so properly observed, there is quality in the people at Fox (although O'Reilly makes me wanna barf sometimes with his miserable conduct) - - Megyn Kelly and Jane Skinner are just two great examples of super-sharp women who just happen to look great. It's almost a liability.

All right, Mr. Lord: spill the beans. What were you drinking when you wrote this piece? Whatever it was, please continue imbibing; that was the funniest piece I've read in a long time. Wonderful, just wonderful.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 10:33AM
Yes, Old Texican, that's probably O'Reilly's biggest sop to liberalism, but his whole attitude to Obama has been to ignore the obvious drumbeat of Marxist retribution in order to "give him a chance" in the interest of "fairness." I agree with O'Reilly on some issues, but on others it's like his populist wagon train has run off without a driver. The times I can stand him, my jaw too often ends up on the floor.
I think he's a baffoon. I don't mind when commentators aren't necessarily pointy-headed intellectuals, but he too often resembles the cringe-inducing rabble. Anti-intellectualism isn't the answer, either.
I loved how the other day he held up a WSJ article that PROVED! PROVED! he was right about oil speculators - as if the news pages of WSJ haven't been every bit as liberal as the NYTimes for years and years.
I hate to say it, but the guy proves that in America, truly ANYONE can end up a millionaire.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 10:37AM
By the way, my guilty pleasure was always Kieren Chetry. Cute as all get-out and a TON of personality.
I know, she was always kind of a lightweight (and Fox does have its share). But it saddened me when she went over to the dark side (CNN).
Anthony| 7.21.09 @ 10:49AM
Poor, poor, Mo Do. What's a shanty Irish lass with a big leftist chip on her shoulder to do?? It must be hard each day, wishfully looking in the mirror and secretly hoping to see Sarah Palin, as opposed to that pasty white face with ruby red lips. Too bad, no Harry Potter magic mirror for you MoDo!!
But there is some good news. At least when MoDo looks in the morning mirror, she doesn't see the bitchy face of Frank Rich or the vacant paranoid stare of Paul Krugman.
It's no wonder Sarah Palin drives them all crazy; she's more woman than the entire Wonder Bread Time's editorial board.
Robert Rosencrans| 7.21.09 @ 10:49AM
Thought for the day, courtesy of Ayn Rand:
The "liberals" are guilty of the same contradiction, but in a different form. They advocate the sacrifice of all individual rights to unlimited majority rule -- yet posture as defenders of the rights of minorities. But the smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.
WR Jonas| 7.21.09 @ 11:02AM
The "white mans " last stand made it onto the evening news in my hometown last night. A very dramatic video of two evil white guys jumping into an inferno which was an SUV laying on its side blazing with people inside. I think it was Milwaukee and the people risking their lives were either firemen or police.
I didn't see Sonia or Maureen around dispensing wisdom or praise .
Maybe those white guys aren't that useless after all. The Democratic liberal left is the most shameful disgrace this country has ever spawned.

Concerning Fox the very pretty Heather Nuart was a very lightweight lightweight, but she hasn't been seen in a while. Shepard Smith IS a wiseass lightweight who should stick to the TelePrompTer and stop ad-libbing (but he sure does those stolen-car-on-LA-freeway bits well; give me Trace Gallagher or Julie Bandaris any day!). O'Reilly has an insufferably huge ego and gets in his own way 'way too often with the many interruptions of guests (and, no, not just to keep them on the subject, but 'cause HIS opinion counts more...); he takes himself 'way too seriously! Hannity's a carbon-copy of himself, repeats the same stuff over 'n over.
On radio, the brilliant (yet supercilious) Michael Savage is the most petty paranoid hypocrite around - - sez he values "free speach" but wants the writers/producers of "Hostel II" tossed in the slammer because he doesn't abide horror flicks.
Methinks the guy's suicidal. And, so petty.... he really is pathetic sometimes.
Old Texican| 7.21.09 @ 11:11AM
Geoff
I can't listen to Savage. He gives me chills. I fear people like him.
"Survivalists in camo" like him though.
Robert: Timely reminder. Thanks.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 11:14AM
Yes, the eye candy comes and goes on Fox with alarming regularity. Heather was beautiful.
As for Shepard, the guy is a snarky moron. He embarrassed himself with his Katrina coverage - on-site "reporting" that was nothing more than a lachrymose tirade against FEMA and Bush wholly uninformed by facts - amateur hour's apotheosis. The guy lost all credibility - as if he had any.
He can't even read a prompter, for chrissakes; he stumbles over words on just about every sentence. I don't know how he got his job or why he keeps it. He must have some video of Roger Ailes doing unspeakable things to ruminants.
I also agree that Sean Hannity is kind of an empty vessel - he parrots conservative dogma too often without the benefit of having it go through his brain. Don't get me wrong - I'm a conservative - but I like it when people arrive at conservative values as a result of thought and empirical experience, not because it's how they were raised.
I can't bring myself to watch Huckabee. That kind of Phil Donahue-esque crap really gets on my nerves.
I haven't listened to Savage in a while - he's a pretty hearty stew of dysfunction and misanthropy, but he does make great points with regularity (or used to - as I say, I haven't indulged in a while).
Overall, I think Fox does do a pretty good at "fair and balanced. But it would never be confused with WFB's old Firing Line show.
Seek| 7.21.09 @ 11:23AM
The tragedy of Maureen Dowd is what could have been. Here is a gorgeous Celtic woman whose very existence sets any normal white male's heart racing, and she turns out to be a self-hating shrew.
I'm not concerned over whether the New York Times lives up to the quota mentality that it prescribes for others. I am concerned, however, about the possible extinction of whites. "Conservatives" like Jeffrey Lord who want newspapers to adopt a Diversity system so as to avoid the taint of hypocrisy aren't my type any more than Dowd.
Marc Jeric| 7.21.09 @ 11:27AM
Let us concentrate on La Dowd - forget those ACORN brownshirts infecting these conversations. I have one question for La Dowd and her alike-thinking confreres: If Sarah Palin is so stupid, vapid, never read a book, ignorant of politics, history, geography - why did you spend so much venom and invective on her?
As for the various self-serving names they give themsleves - liberal, progressive, socialist, Democrat; I simplify by calling them all communists and ec-nazis.
Now O'Reilly - he believes in globaloney warming and excessive oil company profits; there he lost me. He has become just another ignorant bloviating gasbag, no better than Joe Biden. On the other hand Fox has Krauthamer and Hannity, even Beck from time to time - so I will keep watching them.
Geoff| 7.21.09 @ 11:34AM
Thanks, Mark! For mentioning the most brilliant of them all, Dr. Krauthammer, without a doubt, the very best.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 11:45AM
I miss Brit Hume.
But yeah, Krauthammer is great - he has wobbled a couple of times, however. But 98% of the time, he's got the goods.
anon.| 7.21.09 @ 11:48AM

Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 11:49AM
Yes, Tony Snow is greatly missed.
Paul from SA| 7.21.09 @ 12:21PM
Maureen Dowd is one of the most unattractive and unapplealing women on the planet. I understand completely why no man ever proposed to her. She turns my stomach. The same goes for Janeene Graflola and Rosie Odonnald.
One thing that bothers me about Fox News is that they bend over backwards to include the Democrat talking points into almost every clip, just to be balanced. The Democrat talking points are pervasive, they're everywhere in the news, entertainment, advertising.... Unless you live a cave, you cannot escape their anti-conservative message. One has to work to get the conservative message.
Grzmlyk| 7.21.09 @ 12:55PM
Good point, Paul from SA.
Fox is certainly somewhat of a port in the liberal storm, but I'd love to see more intellectual rigor and, as you say, less of a fetish for always providing the liberal point of view - especially given what hacks some of the liberals they have on are.
I mean, they revere Al Sharpton and treat him like a VIP, instead of the race hustler he is.
Lanny Davis has no brain, Geraldine Ferraro was - until she got burned in the Hillary inferno of election 2008 - just a democrat talking point parrot, Ellis Hennican is intellectual helium, Mike Farrell lives in La-La-land in more ways than one, Charles Rangel is a hack extraordinaire, Alan Colmes never seems to have matured past his college Western Civ class, and on and on.
Liberals who claim Fox News is ultra right-wing have never watched it.
Bob| 7.21.09 @ 12:57PM
A++++. But please no more Jeffrey Lord columns. I'll never get any work done. I'll spend my entire day laughing, reading, laughing, reading....

"Conservatives" like Jeffrey Lord who want newspapers to adopt a Diversity system so as to avoid the taint of hypocrisy aren't my type any more than Dowd. "
Seek, my friend. Jeffrey Lord believes no such thing. He believes in a clorblind America where people get ahead based on their skill, work, character, opportiunity. "Diversity" isn't. Perhaps you misread?
Jack Olson| 7.21.09 @ 1:14PM
A few years ago, MoDo wrote a book titled "Are Men Necessary?" Since at age 57 she has never married, I gather she has concluded the negative. Since the newspaper she writes columns for is losing readers faster than Fannie Mae has been losing money, I also gather that millions of Americans have concluded that the NY Times isn't necessary, either.

Good description of a very tedious and unhappy human being. The sad thing is the constant counting of colors and races. If folks are that unhappy, then they should go start their own networks. When I hear all the info regarding the gazillions of dollars in buying power that Blacks and Latinos have, I always wonder why they don't go and just start their own TV and Radio networks?

Fair enough, Mr. Lord.
I'll concede each point you make here.
However, I just want to be sure we're none of us refusing -- even for a moment -- to see the irony of a panel of white men "judging" a "wise Latina" about her comments about a wise Latina.
The irony was stark, and Senator Sessions brought it to a rare height.
Now -- having spent this one moment enjoying that irony -- we'll return to a more pragmatic sense of fairness, and again: I concede your points.

Really, really funny and white article and so so true ! I am still laughing .
As a bi racial man who "passes" as white but grew up and lived all my life in black societies it is so funny operating with those white liberal hypocrites who absolutely have no real connection with minorities. They live in their west and east coast ivory towers, pontificating about moral issues and the economy while all the time their postioning is busy destroying America. They have no realistic idea of the strengths or weaknesses of minirity societies but pander to them through mendicancy. The Maureen Dowds continue the enslavements of blacks by her political posturing that promotes the Al Sharptons of the world instead of the Bill Cosbys.
These people are the death of America with their hypocracy and it is so funny seeing them operate in their unreal white New York Times world.

Liberal Reader...
"However, I just want to be sure we're none of us refusing -- even for a moment -- to see the irony of a panel of white men "judging" a "wise Latina" about her comments about a wise Latina "
Well thanks! But to make the point again...you and I saw the same event and had very different interpretations.
You saw a "panel of white men" and a "Latina." I saw a panel of duly elected US Senators - every one, including those liberals that drive me crazy - duly elected. Everyone from Jeff Sessions to Diane Feinstein forced to run the electoral gauntlet of their states, where any man or woman of the constitutional age of 30 can challenge them. Heck, you can even be a comedian and be elected! These elected officials were questioning a duly appointed sitting federal judge for a position that has no qualification listed in the Constitution beyond the occupant holding the job for the duration of "good Behaviour."
Their race and gender, along with hair color, sexual preference, religion, private sector jobs, absolutely irrelevant to me. But not to you. Once upon a time my position was the "liberal" position, yours - judging by race and ethnicity - seen as the position of a TV character like Archie Bunker (actually, that's being charitable.) Really! This is why a lot of people who grew up thinking they were liberal at 20 find themselves cast as rightwingers today. And at least on issues of race - they haven't moved an inch from what they felt was the moral center. To wit: Dr. King's point of being judged by the content of their character.
Then and now, I would submit MLK got it right.
Thanks for reading!

The values of the weak prevail," wrote Friedrich Nietzsche, "because the strong have taken them over as devices of leadership." This brief and rather cryptic remark contains virtually all we need to know about why contemporary movements like multiculturalism, feminism, homosexualism, and anti-white racism are such powerful trends in modern American and other Western societies.
ds80| 7.21.09 @ 3:30PM
Liberal Reader: "irony of a panel of white men "judging"... about her comments as wise Latina."
No irony at all. They made no claims about their white-male-ness. Sotomayor herself made "female-Latina-ness" an issue - like Barbara Boxer, in her recent condescension to Harry Alford, in making "blackness" an issue.
Skin color, gender, and ethnic heritage have no bearing on the root matter of any particular law or violation thereof - except perhaps to Liberals in their attempt to deconstruct the concept of "equal justice". That's why the notion of a "hate crime" is such a farce.
It seems the only group that keeps injecting race as an issue is the Left.
Robert Rosencrans| 7.21.09 @ 3:53PM
Education against liberalism, once again courtesy of Ayn Rand:
It does not merely demand special privileges on racial grounds -- it demands that white men be penalized for the sins of their ancestors. It demands that a white laborer be refused a job because his grandfather may have practiced racial discrimination. But perhaps his grandfather had not practiced it. Or perhaps his grandfather had not even lived in this country. Since these questions are not to be considered, it means that that white laborer is to be charged with collective racial guilt, the guilt consisting merely of the color of his skin.
But that is the principle of the worst Southern racist who charges all Negroes with collective racial guilt for any crime committed by an individual Negro, and who treats them all as inferiors on the ground that their ancestors were savages.
The only comment one can make about demands of that kind is, "By what right? -- By what code? -- By what standard?"
That absurdly evil policy is destroying the moral base of the Negroes' fight. Their case rested on the principle of individual rights. If they demand the violation of the rights of others, they negate and forfeit their own. Then the same answer applies to them as to the Southern racists: there can be no such thing as a "right" of some men to violate the rights of others.
Liberal Reader| 7.21.09 @ 4:15PM
Again, fair enough, Mr Lord.
My point perhaps needed a little more fleshing out.
Sotomayor judged over 3,000 cases. She's been on the bench for over 15 years. She has decided mind-boggling, complicated business-related cases that are actually far, far more difficult than the Ricci case.
And what did the duly elected senators choose to discuss?
Well, naturally, they chose to discuss easy-access controversies generated by the "wise Latina" remark.
They declined -- for the most part -- to discuss the very real legal issues that might have been discussed.
To be fair, the nominee refused to engage those legal issues that were raised. This is a tradition, upheld by all nominees since Bork, and it makes me think we should cancel the whole charade.
There is no point to these hearings, and they unwittingly reinforce inaccurate ideas about the SC and the Constitution.
The notion that SC justices simply "apply the law" is ridiculous. The Constitution is written in a general, really almost transcendent language and must be applied to a society that is constantly changing. This is why we have JUDGES in the first place.
Patriot| 7.21.09 @ 4:32PM
Liberal Reader/Jeremiah doesn't understand that Sotomayor judged white men as wanting many years ago and the real irony is that LR/Jeremiah doesn't see himself and Sotomayor as the real bigots. But liberals never see themselves as they really are.
Maureen Dowd is a gorgeous Celtic woman? Thin lipped and bloodless she's anything BUT!
I just thank God that she never passed her shrewishness on to any offspring.
Jeffrey Lord| 7.21.09 @ 5:02PM
Liberal Reader
"They declined -- for the most part -- to discuss the very real legal issues that might have been discussed."
Bingo. And the source of this was the Bork episode. I was there, and just appalled. It turned these things into what you quite correctly call a charade. They have become "gotcha" games ever since. One misstep and you are toast. By now both sides participate, but I can tell you the down side of "winning" these things is that you prepare as if this were a game of Jeopardy, not a serious discussion of legal issues. It is very, very bad. Worse, the whole thing has worked itself down the line from Supreme Court confirmations to appeals court and even some district court appointees. For awhile, Specter was in reform mode, but eventually let the mood pass.
My personal view is that most of this is because of abortion. Which to me says that if the Court had just stayed out of the issue and let the 50 states work their will or pass a Constitutional amendment (same applies to gay marriage) instead of trying to jam Roe down everyone's throat, the issue would have resolved itself long ago. There is a reason for letting everyone have a vote - people need to vent, to have a say. Whether directly or through legislatures or Congress, where there is some sense of accountability. When you cut that off, it's like holding a lid on a pot of boiling water. It will keep trying to blow - and at some point it will succeed. In the meantime, among many other things, abortion has had the incidental effect of corrupting these judicial confirmation hearings and everyone who participates in them. Not good.

My compliments to the posters - quite a bunch of heady comments with lots of good sarcasm and wit tossed in. Excellent twist Jeff Lord, a very good one. But from one poster: "..Constitution is written in a general, really almost transcendent language and must be applied to a society that is constantly changing. This is why we have JUDGES in the first place. " Do not buy this version of the role of a judge. The judges' role is to interpret the law, not change it or draw different conclusions. The Ricci case was very simply judged according to whims and biases of Sotomay--or, sort of ACORN-like which is why Obamamama picked her. She is a loser and you shall see by the votes she casts. Any bets? This was one of Obamamama's paybacks for the votes from wetbacks, illegals and know-nothing of the traditions and heritage of the US. One more nail in the coffin.
Liberal Reader| 7.21.09 @ 5:27PM
There we go, Mr. Lord. Complete agreement.
There is no reason why the Senate committee can't review the qualifications of nominees at a distance. If nominees are going to hold to this absurd idea that they can't discuss any issue that may have relevance to cases they may one day decide, why should they be asked any questions at all?
The Senate should confirm basic competence and qualifications in the best of faith. It is for the president to make this nominations, and "advice and consent" should be a generous, very liberal process.
OR -- We could have testimony after confirmation. Let the senate vote on a nominee, again giving the benefit of the doubt to the president, and then let the nominee, if confirmed, testify -- just once -- before the committee. Let the American people hear the new justice and the senators actually, publicly discuss or debate issues.
I wouldn't have any problem with abortion being relegated to the states. (I think the Republican party would suffer terribly if Roe were overturned, but that's a discussion perhaps for another thread.)
Don Henderson| 7.21.09 @ 5:45PM

... to the states, as it should be (we agree). But.
Abortion - an issue of life vs. death - should transcend political calculation. I would trade political suffering for the suffering of the innocents any day.

Fox is the only channel I can watch, even though it is sometimes to the left, but they have to be. I discount that and do my own thinking. Maureen Daud is a very frustrated woman, her brain is scrambled. She does come up with some good words but that doesn't make up for her venum! I wonder what made her hate white men, maybe she was molested as a child or beaten. Our President has all but ruined our country in 6 short months. If you can't see that you are deaf and blind, or because of your staunch Democratic mind, most people are socially conservative. Think about it!

Bob Cooksey| 7.21.09 @ 8:08PM
Liberal Reader--while the "Wise Latina" remark was annoying and I'm frankly tired of hearing about it, there is a very evil undercurrent at work in her case. Sotomayor has been a zealous proponent of a legal idea that most people have probably never even heard of--the idea of Disparate Impact.
What Disparate Impact refers to is the notion that any required employment test that results in "not enough" minorities being hired must be rejected--thrown out. No matter how fair the test, no matter how important that test is to the eventual performance of that job by the applicant--it must be thrown out if " enough" blacks, for instance, do not pass it.
This idea of Disparate Impact is the most insidiously disastrous idea ever to slither out of our legal system. If proponents of DI get their way, minorities will never be expected to study, work hard or achieve real accomplishments. I am a minority myself and find it infuriating that I am constantly sent the message that liberals have to coddle me (and I would rather deal with Al Sharpton than a white liberal like Barbara Boxer) and make excuses for me if I fail.
When that firefighter comes to my home I don't give a damn what color he is as long as he took that test and PASSED IT. Same with my doctor, lawyer, whatever. The legal idea of Disparate Impact strikes at the very heart of our system of self-reliance, respect for education, and equality in the PURSUIT of opportunity.
I find it astonishing that people are harping on Sotomayor's stupid Latina comment while ignoring the mindset that produced it. She can think her race is superior all day long for all I care, but the second people like her start trying to dismantle our system by rigging the odds and throwing out test results they don't like--well let's just say it's one more step to the Third World hell most of us escaped from.

Liberal Reader| 7.21.09 @ 10:13PM
Mr Cooksey --
I hate to break it to you, but the "concept" of disparate impact is enshrined in the civil rights law Sotomayor was applying in the Ricci case.
It was put there by CONGRESS and to ignore it for some extra-legal reason would be called "activism."
I'm pleased as punch that the Supremes overturned the lower court's decision. But remember, that's why they call them the High Court: they get to apply new legal theories or tests or interpretations of standing law.
And by the way ... NOT ONE of the conservative justices on the Supreme Court sought to overturn disparate impact, which is statutory.
