re: #82 Charles

Yes, the “wise Latina” quote is also being taken way out of context.

Having read a little more of the context now, I can’t say I’m too happy about the quote. Note this at the beginning of the same paragraph:

Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging.

What?!

Imagine a white male nominee chatting away about how his “physiological differences” will allow him to reach “better conclusions” than those of a female Latina judge.
