[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plus, careful review of the decision indicates that the door is left open for future challenges. As a practical matter, though, the Court will soon have a 7-2 liberal majority (Thomas and [b]Kennedy[/b] will retire soon, I think). So it seems like Justice Marshall's view that affirmative action will endure for centuries more is, in fact, accurate. [/quote] Didn't Kennedy write this opinion? And didn't he based his decision on deference to the school's stated need for diversity -- which is not at all a strict scrutiny analysis. But I'm just going on what I read in a news account, not the actual opinion.[/quote] Kennedy did write the opinion. Alito, Thomas, and Roberts dissented. That Thomas is a whacked individual. He benefitted from AA and now he says, stop with him. [/quote]
