My favorite part:

And Justice Scalia, a white dude whose Italian heritage would have subjected his ancestors to second class treatment a century ago, argues that ever since forever, the constitution has been color blind and Sotomayor can take her first hand experiences of being a non white non man and pipe down.

"As Justice Harlan observed over a century ago, 'Our Constitution is color-blind, and neither knows nor tolerates classes among citizens.' The people of Michigan wish the same for their governing charter. It would be shameful for us to stand in their way," Scalia wrote. In an accompanying footnote, he referenced Sotomayor's opinion and added, "And doubly shameful to equate 'the majority' behind [the Michigan ballot initiative] with 'the majority' responsible for Jim Crow."

Oh really! Tell me more about how the constitution is "color-blind."

They have declared war on YOU and some of us are waiting to see what YOU (collectively speaking) will do about it.

There is nothing wrong with Sotomayor's legal reasoning
