Eric Holder says Sotomayor's affirmative action dissent was 'courageous'

The Hill reports:

“Just yesterday in her courageous and personal dissent,” Holder quoted Sotomayor as saying that people should not “wish away, rather than confront, the racial inequality that exists in our society. ... The way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to speak openly and candidly on the subject of race.”

Eric Holder believes the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution doesn't apply to white people or Asians.
