Little awareness of the dangers that were growing. I had been covering russian issues for 20 years and i just went back from the georgia war when i arrived in august in 2008. I was struggling here in washington, the people didnt seem to see that srussia was becoming a serious and obvious threat to european security. There was not this awareness. It was strange. And also a total under estimation in europe. I know that its kind of politically incorrect to talk about in europe but despite the fact that the president and many people here think its not about islam and whats going on.

Right principle, the court did the right thing, that is important, it sets a high bar, High Aspirations for us. As Justice Marshall said, so many times, we are still climbing toward its goal.

Because there is going to be more competition in jobs. I am also an older worker. And there is credits given. I am not sure what, but when you fill out your application, they give credits. The government gives credits if you have ever been on welfare and for certain things they give the employer credits. They lower the wage for those people. And we are already and competition. We are getting older. We cant here as well, we cant well, well, hear as can see as well, and we cant compete as well. We cant live on social security. We didnt even get a raise this year.

The court struck down the policy at issue, which, in louisville, had been adopted, a policy, adopted after the School System was no longer officially under court order, by consensus, large consensus of the community, it wanted to continue with its Integration Program in schools. It was considered a Model Community for integration. The court said that the principles established in the affirmative action cases regarding diversity really dont apply in the k12 context and context. And then, as you mentioned, there is the continuing controversy over affirmative action. The court is going to hear the fisher case again. Tomiko it will rule on the merits and it doesnt look good to proponents of affirmative action. And it may not be a sleeping a sweeping holding but the nature of the conversation at the court is having is really goes back to that word of judicial supremacy. The court, in the affirmative action context, is saying that it is to be satisfied that there arent alternatives to these
