While the Supreme Court rolls back the Voting Rights Act of 1965, condemning it as an unnecessary vestige of the civil-rights era, President Obama is acting as if America were still in the mid-'60s.
His race-obsessed administration is bringing racial preferences and affirmative action back with a vengeance. And it's doing so outside the legislative process, largely behind the scenes, through executive orders, regulations and prosecutions, effectively expanding existing civil-rights law. ------ To boost minority hiring, the EEOC recently warned employers they could be considered guilty of "race discrimination if they choose law-abiding applicants over applicants with criminal convictions." The predictable result: hiring quotas for felons.
At the same time, the Labor Department is warning federal contractors to refrain from asking employees about felonies.
It's also demanding they modify their hiring policies to favor minorities.
The agency also advised that all FDIC-insured banks must develop and implement an "affirmative action program" for hiring. ------ Meantime, Obama's new credit watchdog agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, is subjecting car lenders to the same racial "effects test" while investigating racial bias at Equifax, Experian, TransUnion and other consumer credit reporting agencies.
Obummer is a product of AA,so you know he's not going to let it die. If it wasn't for Affirmative Action he would would be sharing a small apt with his boyfriend somewhere and working in a car wash.
Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)
