The fix was in on Michigan affirmative action case

Charles Hurt, Washington Times:

"Senate Democratic staffers and a judge appointed by President Carter made extraordinary efforts last year to ensure that a liberal majority sat on the federal appeals court that heard the Michigan affirmative action cases, according to internal Democratic staff memos.

"Staffers for Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, Massachusetts Democrat and senior member of the Judiciary Committee, sought to delay one of President Bush's nominees to the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals based on concerns that the new judge might strike racial preferences as unconstitutional, according to the memos obtained last week by The Washington Times."
