Jemele is the definition of a liberal, don't need an intelligent thought of you can just mention race.

As noted, regardless of how KBJ was on law review, she in fact was on law review, meaning she worked 20-30 hours/week on it and still had grades as good as Gorsuch based on them both graduating ***** laude (as did I and about 30-40% of my class--the top 10-15% (including Obama, BTW) graduated magna). Not being on law review, Gorsuch didn't have that 20-30/week burden.
Yet she's the one you folks love to attack as somehow unworthy and unqualified. I wonder why?
Not "up to snuff"? Where did you get your law degree? Prager U?
Did she lie to the Senate during her confirmation hearing on Roe being settled precedent (I believe Kavanaugh even used the term "Super Precedent")? Did she decide to make the President a king in that ridiculous immunity decision? (Don't worry, though, the Court will reverse that one so fast it will make your head spin if and when a Democrat is allowed to become President again.)
Another SC justice said this about her "We will not dwell on Justice Jackson's argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries' worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself" and she has been voted at least twice as 8-1. I don't need to be a legal scholar to know that when this is happening that she is over her skis. I also don't need to be a legal scholar to know a judge that releases a person back into the community who has been convicted dozens of times of violent crimes is incompetent. Lastly your entire argument about her credentials is stupid because I am certain you have found in your work sometimes the most "credentialed" person is a moron who clearly can't apply the info properly, my worst administrator was a women who had two doctorates, psychology and educational leadership, and could not apply it at all, but she had a position because the piece of paper said she could.

What were Gorsuch's qualifications, especially as compared to hers?
Academically she certainly objectively had the better record as noted above (but no high-powered mother to smooth the way, perhaps).
Why are her qualifications questioned repeatedly by conservatives, but not his?
Did you read what I said? I agree her paperwork qualifications from before the SC are top notch, it is her time on the SC that is making her look unprepared. She is great on paper but her application of the law is not up to snuff for the SC. Every field, especially mine, has the people with the Doctorates and every possible degree who can't apply them to even simple situations, and she seems that way.

No, but clearly the only reason you like her is her skin color. Her skin color is meaningless to me. The best part is I praise a black man during the post you quoted.

Not the question I asked. Nice deflection.
What were Gorsuch's?
To stick with the quantifiable, her academic credentials are superior to his, no matter how you slice it.
She made law review--he didn't.
Despite working 20-30 hours/week on law review as an editor (no matter how she got on), she graduated with the same honors he did.
The dirty little secret conservatives don't want to admit is that there are so few of them at elite educational institutions that they can almost instantly become public stars on the right, either on the bench or at think tanks. Smart liberals are relatively a dime per several dozen in those spaces. In his case, having a mother who was a Cabinet secretary under Reagan (a political nepo baby, if you will) certainly didn't hurt.Full disclosure--I was in his law school (and, coincidentally, also college) class. He was considered smart, but not brilliant. Obama (who graduated magna despite working 40 plus hours/week as LR EIC) was widely considered brilliant by people on both sides of the aisle. Didn't know Gorsuch in college, but did know him socially in law school through mutual friends (including Ken Mehlman, former RNC head who ran W's 2004 "Guns and Gays" campaign that maligned gay people to whip up the base--of course, 5 years later Ken comes out of the closet--and says "oops!") and got along with him on a personal level even if my politics are very different (much like the worlds we came from). Very disappointed in him on the bench so far, including his lying to the Senate at his confirmation hearings on Roe.
It is not a deflection, it is the reason. Her main qualifications was being a black women, Biden said it often. Until she started speaking I assumed she was likely well qualified for all the reasons you listed but she comes off poorly in every situation where she is in the minority. I disagreed with RBG often but she was a brilliant megal mind, KBJ is not similar to that and to pretend it is related to race when Clarence Thomas is just as black makes you sound like you incapable of seeing beyond your reason for liking her.

You know who didn't even make law review (and thus was spared working 20 plus hours a week on it in addition to classes) and "only" graduated ***** laude from HLS (just like KBJ)?
Neil Gorsuch.
Funny that no one ever questions his credentials, isn't it? Why might that be?
What was the primary qualifications for Bidens pick to the SC?

If Stafford wins the NFC West it is his, and I think rightfully so. If We win the 1 seed and Rams are wild card it will be interesting. At this moment I would vote for Stafford but Josh can be Superman at times like no one else.

No. It’s based on less men applying. They may well want to go but know they don’t have the grades/ scores. That’s becoming common.
your prose improved markedly from the last post. Did someone help?You giving me credit for using proper grammar while you are using improper grammar is hilarious. Also as for our initial discussion, you are acknowledging that it might be a different factor besides letting in less qualified men, which I appreciate.

Brown doesn't need tp promote itself. that's why the level of competition between the sexes is important Both want admission equally.. Played well, this is a ticket to prosperity or more.
This whole discussion is based on the fact that men don't want to go to brown as much as women, which is evidenced by the fact that twice as many women applied.

If you click on the post she argued with everyone that since those exact word were not on the ballot she is correct. It would be like me arguing that my vote for Trump did not mean "deport illegals" was on the ballot.

The complaint is simply that the only reason Hong that matters is money. Being a great football team is a distant second to making the tournament, and they can't even come up with a unified theory after the fact of what makes you belong where you are ranked
29 minutes ago, YoloinOhio said:I just don’t see any way Tulane or JMU are going to win the title so why take up bracket spots. Sue me for being “unfair to conference champs” but who can disagree with that premise.
There was no way Tennessee or SMU were winning it last year but were ranked that highly. Is the argument who can win it or who had the best season because I am sure Bama is not winning this year

splain...if there are 50 spots for 100 male applicants, and 50 spots for 200 female applicants, who has better odds under DEI.? without DEI, there are 100 spots for 300 applicants , regardless of gender (numbers are for illustrative purposes, not precision). male odds decrease, female odds increase with elimination of DEI.
You are trying to tell me you were a doctor who had to diagnose things and this is the only explanation you have? Possible explanation that are more likely, the two largest majors are computer science and Math and Stats, which are both male dominant majors. Brown also likely promotes itself more to females making it more likely to get female applicants. Now if they show stats that indicate the males are getting in with lower SAT and ACT scores then I will agree but nothing has indicated that and the headline shows no understanding of what it is presenting.

No because they'd still have the advantage in common games if we both finished 13-4 and they'd win the tiebreaker. If we beat them next week we'd need to run the table and they'd have to lose two of their last three games (Ravens, Fish, Jets) to win the division. I think. LOL.
According to ESPN playoff machine we win based on conference games if they lose to us and then another AFCE team.

It's plausible if we beat them we could win out and take the division. If the Ravens wake up and the Dolphins who've looked good recently pull off the upset. Pats will be heavily favored in both games though. I'm not sure who holds the tiebreaker if they both finish 13-4 who hold the tiebreaker.
If the Pats lose to either the Jets or Phins and we win out we won the division

What really contrasted with it was watching Lamar 15 minutes later in a very similar position to Allen not getting it done. Not crapping on Lamar necessarily, but I just don't really recally many athletes in any sport reaching this level of "We're just not going to lose even if I'm the only one pulling the rope" that Allen is on right now.
Lamar is clearly injured and is not playing well. As you said it is not crapping on him to realize that since 2020 Josh has been the better QB.

This is hilariously stupid and ignorant. They make a statement of fact but come out a conclusion that anyone who understands statistics in a minimal sense would not come. There are several more likely explanations then the men had an "easier" time getting in.

wont say he's a bust because so far he's shown to be exactly what the scouting report said Moulds was a physical freak who finally lived up to his ceiling I'm not sure Keon's ceiling is very high to begin with
I was coming here to say this, Moulds was one of the best athletes in the NFL, whereas Coleman is not faster than most of them. His ceiling is Anquan Boldin, but Boldin was an elite route runner, which Coleman has not shown at all. I hope he becomes Boldin but have little faith

Perhaps you should look to see why you are so easily misled. You truly believed something that had no evidence at the begining but now you are calling the wrong people the conspiracy theorists.

I can state that vaccinating my children with all the childhood diseases was am easy,l decision, getting Polio or some of the others ruins a life. Telling my children's pediatrician that he was not going to give them a COVID shot was also easy. I still think people should have the option because COVID showed that government doctors are not always correct and people should be able to weigh the cost/benefit. Besides if we stopped letting illegals into the country there would no source for the illnesses.

The conspiracy theory at this point is that Trump will pardon him. There is no evidence he did the bombs to "support" Trump.

President Trump pardoned the narco kingpin. That's defending narco people, right?
The fact that everything that happens is always about Trump with you is hilarious. This thread is about the boats and Hegseth not Trump. The fact that Trump might have pardoned a kingpin is not what I am arguing because I have not researched it yet, but your opinion is meaningless because you are not in any way reasonable

I will point out that I live among a large number of legal immigrants, many of who are going through the process of citizenship, and I don't have these issues in my area, basically ever. It is almost as if people who come here illegally are willing to break more laws once they get here

I know her because she started at the Orlando Sentinel making racial issues out of the Magic when we had Dwight Howard. She is an annoying twit who used to live near me so this kinda crap from her bothers me more than it should but she is a moron.
