Sometimes words speak louder than actions. During the past few weeks we have been regaled on how Alito was a racist, sexist bigot who would turn back the hard fought and won rights of women and minorities. His Proof? That Alito belonged to a club back in college that fought against affirmative action at Princeton (note, it did not fight against their admission, just granting them a special privilege).
Now comes the facts that Kennedy himself once argued for segregation!
Resolved: That the Federal Government should compel the state of Alabama to grant equal educational opportunities to Negroes
Eliot's debaters, Franklin P. Bennett, Jr. '57, Huston J. Banton '57, and Ira B. Shepard '58 lost to the Winthrop negative, composed of Paul F. Beatty '56, William E. Crosby '56, and Edward M. Kennedy '56.
Seems Kennedy is living in a glass house, and he just put a rock through his window.
