With a wink and a nod.

She has an almost 80% reversal rate.

Her opinion on the New Haven Firefighter case was so off the reservation that she was rebuked in writing by Jose Cabranes (Clinton appointee) for
brooming the plaintiffs’ claims of unfair treatment.

80% reversal rate is stunning. If my management decisions were reversed 80% of the time - I would not last long at any place of employment.

The New Haven firefighter case was an apalling disgrace. I certainly hope that this will come up in the hearings and that more than one Senator has a problem with it. Can’t blame it on youthful indescretion. This was only months ago.
