Timothy Lewis is apparently angling to get the William J. Brennan, Jr., Prize, awarded annually to the worst Republican-appointed ex-judge (the slightly more prestigious Earl Warren Prize goes to the worst Republican-appointed sitting judge). In a recent speech, he assailed Chief Justice Roberts’s famous 2007 statement that “the way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race”; the ex-judge opined that “the chief justice should like to spend a little more time in the ’hood before making pronouncements on discrimination.” Mr. Lewis, who was appointed to both a federal district judgeship and the Third Circuit by former President George H.W. Bush, went on to “stake[] out a number of liberal positions in his speech,” demanding greater “diversity” and “multiculturalism” at law firms and endorsing two bad bills, the Paycheck Fairness Act and the End Racial Profiling Act.
