Left-wing MSNBC anchor Joy Reid admitted Sunday she only got accepted into Harvard University because of race-based affirmative action.
“I got into Harvard only because of affirmative action,” Reid’s personal “ReidOut Blog” began.
A Harvard recruiter traveled to Denver and promised to accept Reid to the university, her blog read. Reid went on to celebrate how affirmative action was the reason herself and Supreme Court justices Ketanji Brown Jackson and Clarence Thomas were able to be admitted to Ivy League schools.

So, she admits she was too stupid to get in on merit. However, just because she was admitted by edict doesn't mean other Blacks were.

I wonder what Clarence Thomas has to say. He has a brilliant mind. There is an obvious difference. She just insulted him because he happens to be black.

One only has to listen to one of her shows to know why Harvard bypassed her 60 IQ and admitted her under Affirmative Action Status!?

I could be mistaken, but I think Justice Thomas got into Yale before affirmative action existed.

Well, duh! It was pretty obvious for her, and is pretty obvious for many third rate minds who is the affirmative action folks and who isn't.
Look at the three women on the SCOTUS....no doubt how they got there.

So…… This is what an Ivy League graduate looks like.
And AOC has an economics degree from Boston University.
Further evidence than a college degree today is about as useful as democrats find the constitution. Save your money, go to a technical school. You won’t come out dumber than you went in.

#9, Thomas admits he got into law school through AA and hated the idea of it. In fact, he put a 15-cent stamp on his law certificate, indicating what he thought of it. That said, he's a great jurist and has served well.

"She then accused the conservative majority in the Supreme Court of being “okay” with affirmative action for white people" proving that she has no ability to think logically. The SC decision did not cause unqualified white people or Asians to have preference in admissions. It prevents unqualified people from getting preferential treatment based on their race. She is a truly dumb person.

Jeesh! The reason she was so unhappy her Freshman year was because Other Students talked about her and didn't want her in their little Click! Well do ya think it was because they couldn't believe how a Stupid person like Joy could actually make it into Harvard? They could see for themselves she didn't belong there. Not because of the Color of her Skin, but for the FACT that she did not measure up to the Standards that the Others were held to!! If she had been White, she wouldn't have been accepted to Harvard. She knew it and They knew it!!

She is making the case against affirmative action-- that everyone assumes a black student got in with lesser credentials. She says Clarence Thomas and Ketanji Jackson got in because of AA. How does she know? Clarence Thomas, by the way, went to Holy Cross, not Harvard, and graduated with honors. She is doing the same thing she accuses the non-black Harvard students of doing. And how does she know that students whose parents or grandparents went to Harvard have lesser credentials? Doesn't it make sense that if a parent is smart enough to get into Harvard, his kids might be smart, too?

Re #15 and others...a close relative was one of the earliest USN female naval aviators. She was very competent and was ultimately voted by the peer aviators in here type mission to be the east coast "Top COD"...for the C2 aircraft's miision of COD, carrier onboard delivery. This is tge largest aircraft that lands aboard and is catapaulted from the carriers.
She hated that it was always assumed thathat she wasn't competent until pilots flew with her.
AA steals prestige from people who deserve it and try to give fake prestige to people who don't.

"...where all races are equal is by taking race into account to correct historical inequities...." Judge Brown has been inculcated with the b lack victim identity.
History cannot be changed (though the left attempts to rewrite it) and justice (vengeance) for the sins of ancestors should not be visited upon the innocents of today. Her illogical and emotional arguments are evidence that her selection for the court was just another manifestation of affirmative action. There are certainly more qualified jurists.

The argument for affirmative action programs for blacks seems to be based on the idea of remediation of past discrimination that resulted in lower economic achievement. The problem with this argument is that almost every non-WASP group in America also experienced discrimination. Where is the Jewish, Hispanic, Irish, Italian, Asian, Indian, Native American, blah, blah, blah remediation program?
This approach to social justice is doomed to fail. Why can't they understand the obvious.

Harvard needed a black idiot like her for government Recertification of Title IV Student Financial Aid. The same happened with Doorknob Hussein, but he got a scholarship instead. Couldn't qualify for Student Financial Aid because he was not a U.S. citizen at the time. Not even Green Card!

Of course she did. And, in doing so, she took a spot from a person who was smarter, and worked harder, to get access to Harvard.
And hopefully wherever that person ended up going to college, they became a much better person, who doesn't spend all their time spewing hate and bile like Reid does!!!!!

Yes, you did get in by AA. And it shouldn't have happened. Look at you now. What did you learn? Anything? I guess not. Just a sheepskin to cover your ignorance and stupidity.
