Anthony Kennedy Sides With His Liberal Budies to Uphold University of Texas' Affirmative Action Scheme

It shook out 4-3 to uphold it. Kagan had recused herself for once, having briefed the case for the government earlier. (Note: She similarly worked on Obamacare, but refused to recuse herself there.)

Kennedy sided with the liberals -- let's face it, he is one.

Once again, all liberals vote in lockstep. This has nothing to do with the law; this is just another branch of the Democrat-Socialist Party in action.

he Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the race-conscious admissions program at the University of Texas, saying that the plan taking race into consideration as one factor of admission is constitutional.

The 4-3 ruling greenlights the limited use of affirmative action polices by schools.
"The Court's affirmance of the University's admissions policy today does not necessarily mean the University may rely on that same policy without refinement. It is the University's ongoing obligation to engage in constant deliberation and continued reflection regarding its admissions policies," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in the majority opinion.

"Something strange has happened since our prior decision in this case," Justice Samuel Alito wrote in the dissent. "This is nothing less than the plea for deference that we emphatically rejected in our prior decision. Today, however, the Court inexplicably grants that request."
