Hurray for the Supreme Court. Just when I’d begun to think no part of our government had the courage to stand up for what is right even against Obama’s wishes, something like this comes along.

WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court ruled Monday that white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., were unfairly denied promotions because of their race, reversing a decision that high court nominee Sonia Sotomayor endorsed as an appeals court judge. (here)

Once again, Obama has to try to find another “follower” to submit to Congress as a candidate for the SCOTUS. Maybe he’ll get it right this time – one can always hope.
