RICHMOND, Va. (AP) Boeing Co. says Judge J. Michael Luttig has resigned from the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to accept a position with the company.If true, this is quite a blow to the judiciary. Judge Luttig was considered to be one of the great ones and thought to be on everybody's short list for the Supreme Court. His was a name that I heard prior to both Chief Roberts' and Justice Alito's nominations...
Mark's Remarks
Judge Luttig had nothing left to lose. Most insiders confided that he would not be considered for any more openings, as political correctness and such rule out selecting another white male.
Looks like PC is trumping finding the best and brightest....again.
