There is nothing new about this. I do construction work for the government as a sub and have for many years.
Last year I was on a project and the superintendent came up to me and said..”Buddy, you gotta hire at least a few ******’s or we’re gonna have to get someone else. we have quotas to fill.”
Next year the gays, lesbian, transgendered.
I LOVED that when I heard it, and never forgot it.
It really DOES expose the left's TRUE feelings about minorities, doesn't it?
The only group we can legally descriminate against are whites. Why would any white person vote Commucrat? Why not do away with all hiring criteria? Whoever walks in first gets the job.
What, no transgendered midget albinos?
A little confusing. Should that say of every five new hires (2-2-1), or does it mean for every five whites (5-2-1)? I suspect the first is correct, but I confuse easily these days!
I want in the NBA.
Yeah, but there's the expense and the delay. Also, there are some racially partisan politicians who will pressure to not appeal and use this as a legal precedent.
I am a retired Firefighter and I can tell you I have been in burning buildings with unqualified people hired under affirmative action. The city hires them and you work with them, you have no choice. Some of them were not bad Firefighters.You really dont have to be real smart to enter a building that others are bailing out of.
The problem comes with promotions to drivers and Officers.
People who cannot pass a test to be appointed also cannot pass a test to operate Emrgency vehicles., They don’t properly learn their districts or study the buildings in that district.They cannot pass a test to become Fire officers.So they sit around and complain of being discriminated against.
They forget that they shouldnt have been hired to begin with. So the Fire departments start rewriting tests so that an idiot could pass them or they give preferential treatment to them to get them officers jobs. THAT is when the trouble starts.
Now you arent going into a building on fire with someone who isnt real bright,but can direct a hose stream ,or put up a ladder. Now you have an idiot in charge of you.THAT can get you killed.

Once Obama gets another Sotomayor on the court, rulings like this will be upheld.
Exactly. Every NBA team needs to start 3 white guys and a mexican.
what... no girls???
So, what if a scenario emerged where the black and hispanic candidates are substandard to the white ones? Not as qualified, test scoring not as high etc.
The public has been told to settle for less than the best all in the interest of Affirmative Action.
1. Buffy and Chip are having a dinner party in their gentrified brownstone on Park Ave. with 5 other couples.
Candles placed too close to the curtains catch fire and by the time FDNY arrives the 1st floor is fully involved with citizens hanging from the 3rd floor windows:
A. How many forks were on the table?
B. In 500 words or less explain what wine was served with each course and why.

Wel, as you know it’s been a long time since the City of Chicago burned to the ground, so it’s OK to slack off a bit.
How do they determine what “race” is and who is who or what?
I am wondering what they are supposed to do with someone like Obama, hire the black half and refuse to hire the white half?
