The Senate Judiciary Committee approved him by a party-line 12-7 vote in October. Republican opponents cited cases he handled as an ACLU attorney in San Francisco from 1995 to 2001, including an unsuccessful challenge to Proposition 209, the 1996 California initiative that banned government affirmative action programs based on race or gender.

Opponents also cited some of his public statements, including a 2005speech in which he questioned whether the government's response to Hurricane Katrina would have been quicker if most of the victims had been white and middle class rather than poor and black.
The last thing we need is another judge with an agenda.

All judges have agendas. We need the courts to have a pro-environment, pro-human rights, pro-worker agenda, rather than a pro-corporation, bigoted agendas that the right-wing judges push. It's naive to think one side doesn't have an agenda and the other side does.

When the agenda is to favor one skin color over another, it is not a very
good agenda.
If this was a white judge who favored white's over minorities, you would
be the first to raise an objection.
We would be naive to think otherwise.
All people should be treated equal.
You should not get an advantage because of the color of your skin.

I believe a whole lot of people vocalized the same thought at the time - including government officials, priests, ministers, civil rights activists, movie stars, singers, and just plain folk.

An agenda that protects the status quo will favor one race over another if one race achieved the status quo as a result of racism. I'm surprised you didn't realize that. If you're envious of the advantages that black people have because of the biased judges, then I feel sorry for you, for what that's worth.

Ah well then, if singers, movie stars and "plain folk" vocalized the though then it must be true
We all know there was a lot more to it than that, largely at the feet of the N.O. mayor - but let's just blame racism

No we don't need judges that follow your skewed politically ideology or any agenda for that matter. We need judges that are pro-Constitution, ones that interpret the law and not create it.

Favoring one skin color over another is RACISM, we have been told that many many times, Martin Luther King told us that.
Voting for a politician based on skin color is RACISM we have also been told that many many times, have we not...... It was done during the last presidential election but nobody seemed to notice it........
