It appears that Ms. Sotomayor,the model of diversity and inclusion,has some explaining to doregarding her membership in a club.<\/p>\n<p>Not just any club &#8211;a club whose members are all female. In documents provided to the Senate Judiciary Committee, the honorable judge wrote this: &#8220;I am a member of the Belizean Grove, a private organization of female professionals from the profit, nonprofit and social sectors. The organization does not invidiously discriminate on the basis of sex. Men are involved in its activities&#8211; they participate in trips, host events and speak at functions&#8211; but to the best of my knowledge, a man has never asked to be considered for membership.&#8221; (I don\u2019t blame \u2019em!)<\/p>\n<p>The group includes over 100 high-level executives and upper-crust women from the corporate and government worlds.<\/p>\n<p>However&#8230; the Code of Judicial Conduct bars judges from belonging to any organization that practices discriminationbased on race, sex, religion, or national origin.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder. If Justices Roberts or Thomas belonged to an association that discriminated against females,if Justices Alito or Scalia were discovered to have membership in a group that excluded females,how would liberals have reacted? Would they have forgiven the judges\u2019 involvement in an &#8220;old boy\u2019s club&#8221;? Or would they have erupted in a full-blown, five-alarm rage?<\/p>\n<p>Safe to say, any conservative in this situationwould find their nomination dead in the water.Clubbed &#8211;like a baby seal. No question about it. I think I\u2019m going to send Sotomayor, and her club, a bunch of vacuum cleaners to help them clean up after their meetings. <\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rush\u2019s Morning Update: The Club!June 17, 2009Watch It!
