Hi:

After reading the article in question and the posts it generated 
on this list, it seems that the main difference between those who 
supported the suit and those that didn't is that the latter group 
has more faith in the free market to address discrimination 
issues without being forced to by the government.  I suspect that 
folks who opposed Civil Rights legislation in the 1960s had the 
same faith in free markets to overcome centuries of racism, 
sexism, and the like.  I think that people can reasonably 
disagree on the intelligence of a given law suit, but I find it 
tiresome when conservatives always seem to complain about every 
discrimination-related lawsuit every time in all circumstances 
except when they are singing the reverse discrimination song.

Best, Peter
