Did everybody get the blast email last week that used the word “diversity” 50 times?

Yeah, there was some Lt Col that was putting in for a promotion to Full Bird Colonel, but it turned out he did not meet the "commitment to diversity" quota, so he had to issue a shitload of memos and for the Airbase Tranny Dance Parties and Genderqueer awareness clinic he was hosting, oh and an invite to Muslim prayer and the base chapelMosque.

</sarc>

No Promotion Unless A Commitment To Diversity Is Demonstrated, Air Force Sec Says

(note where the end sarc tag is... and no, this is NOT satire)

And I agree. Just cant see a recovery. It is the kids. They are ignorant.

We let the schools make them that way and not enough of us compensated for it.

Game over man. Game over.

But on the bright side, the right Americans will be doing the dying for a change.

Probably in larger numbers too, being as they won't be the best of the best.

A handfull of great people trying to do their jobs with competence and integrity with ancient aircraft, a fag or dyke for leadership, constant monitoring for any chicken shit pc infraction, being passed over for eeo remfs and on and on and on.

Good people are looking for a door any way they can find it. It is gutting the service and the damage will go on for years and years bc the incompetence is all that will be left to promote. Wewill bedefeated in a real war.

NO It is not satire.

Better hope the guard and reserve hold up or we are fully screwed. Probably are anyway.

So being the brightest and the best is no longer a requirement? We need to remind troops on the ground that when they call in close support, they may not be getting the best pilots in the world but the politically correct ones? NUTS!!!!

“I am not 100% sure of this, but I seem to possibly remember some General or something say…”

During a TV interview shortly after the shooting, Army Chief of Staff George W. Casey said, “Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse.” That’s the core statement made by General Casey. Some months later, General Casey voiced a similar opinion during another interview. Slight variations on the quote as well as supporting quotes may be found on the ‘Net.

Army Chief of Staff George W. Casey.

Pardon me if I disagree with the General. Diversity is our weakness, but I suppose he could not be chief of staff if he wasn't a PC guy.

Sure, because capabilities are not as important as making sure you get all the right flavors of people.

And look! We're gonna have even MORE GENDERS to chose from for our "rainbow" military.
