This story reminds me of an event that happened when Ruth Ginsberg was going through confirmation hearings.
Sen. Hatch asked her if someone who had a staff of 50 with not one of those positions being held by a minority could be sued for racial discrimination. When she said that yes, she believed that there were grounds for a racial discrimination suit, he pointed out to her that she had a staff of 50 at her law practice and not one was a minority. He then let her off the hook by telling her he didn't think she was a racist.
