Leaked Email: Navy plans Affirmative Action to fast track “diverse” minorities past White males
Coach is Right ^ | August 4, 2010 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

This is alarming, sickening and something you won’t hear much about from the mainstream media. An Affirmative Action military doesn’t win wars.

A leaked Email from the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) strongly indicates he is trying to drag America back to the days when our armed forces were segregated only this time it will be done to disadvantage White males and eventually straight White males.

The leaked message which was meant only for the eyes of Flag level officers surfaced last week almost 62 years to the day after President Harry Truman signed Executive Order 9981[1] which directed all of America’s Armed Forces to accord equal “treatment and opportunity for all persons in the armed services without regard to race, color, religion, or national origin."

“Diverse”: the new code word

In what ought to be treated as a national security matter, CNO Admiral Gary Roughead outlined his intensions to see junior Naval officers he euphemistically refers to as “diverse” (a word that can only mean minority, female and gay), fast tracked precisely because of who they are and not necessarily because of what they have accomplished.

For obvious reasons Roughead has directed that the “diversities” career progression list, be “held very closely.” The implication of this [2]“diversities” list is clearly to create a privileged class of Naval Officers who will be given career fast tracking treatment and mentoring that will not be offered to those who are not on the list. In other words we are being dragged back to the days of “separate but equal” and the segregated units of World War II.

The process will be insidious. Its purpose will be achieved through thousands of individual fitness reports which will subtly favor “diversities” every bit as much as White males were favored…

“The Navy under Clinton acted then like the Navy is acting now. This has been going on for 20 years at least, and the Naval Acadamy is utterly PC. Thus, no senior Navy officer should be given a responsible role at the Pentagon, the War College, or the White House.”

This Policy needs tore out by the roots.

Look at it this way -

God created the world and universe, and “it was good”.

Along comes Satan and perverts the natural order. Being God’s enemy, he seeks to pervert, reverse, and turn upside down EVERYTHING that God made, including the rules and the concepts of good and evil.

The left is working for this same goal - reversing, perverting, and turning upside down everything that God intended to be good, right, and moral.

This has not one thing to do with minorities or women. This has everything to do with the Obama wanting liberals in command positions in our military.

It makes me think that is exactly what just happened when that old lady was appointed as a front line admiral recently.

Naval officers are perfectly aware of the “seadaddy” perniciousness — the too-cozy relationship of senior to junior officers — that infects the Navy at this time.

You are right about that the PC military has been in the unequal opportunity mode for years promoting women and minorities over crackers.

I’ll show this to my Hispanic son-in-law, who wishes he could be fast tracked in the Navy.

I think he is the wrong minority......

An Affirmative Action military doesn’t win wars. - I imagine that's the reason- the enemy is within.

Great, then our military will operate as smoothly as this administration, and the nation. Just wonderful...

Isaiah 3
Judgment on Jerusalem and Judah
1 See now, the Lord,
the LORD Almighty,
is about to take from Jerusalem and Judah
both supply and support:
all supplies of food and all supplies of water,

2 the hero and warrior,
the judge and prophet,
the soothsayer and elder,

3 the captain of fifty and man of rank,
the counselor, skilled craftsman and clever enchanter.

4 I will make boys their officials;
mere children will govern them.

5 People will oppress each other—
man against man, neighbor against neighbor.
The young will rise up against the old,
the base against the honorable.

6 A man will seize one of his brothers
at his father’s home, and say,
“You have a cloak, you be our leader;
take charge of this heap of ruins!”

7 But in that day he will cry out,
“I have no remedy.
I have no food or clothing in my house;
do not make me the leader of the people.”

8 Jerusalem staggers,
Judah is falling;
their words and deeds are against the LORD,
defying his glorious presence.

9 The look on their faces testifies against them;
they parade their sin like Sodom;
they do not hide it.
Woe to them!
They have brought disaster upon themselves.

10 Tell the righteous it will be well with them,
for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds.

11 Woe to the wicked! Disaster is upon them!
They will be paid back for what their hands have done.

12 Youths oppress my people,
women rule over them.
O my people, your guides lead you astray;
they turn you from the path.

13 The LORD takes his place in court;
he rises to judge the people.

14 The LORD enters into judgment
against the elders and leaders of his people:
“It is you who have ruined my vineyard;
the plunder from the poor is in your houses.

15 What do you mean by crushing my people
and grinding the faces of the poor?”
declares the Lord, the LORD Almighty.

16 The LORD says,
“The women of Zion are haughty,
walking along with outstretched necks,
flirting with their eyes,
tripping along with mincing steps,
with ornaments jingling on their ankles.

17 Therefore the Lord will bring sores on the heads of the women of Zion;
the LORD will make their scalps bald.”

18 In that day the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles and headbands and crescent necklaces, 19 the earrings and bracelets and veils, 20 the headdresses and ankle chains and sashes, the perfume bottles and charms, 21 the signet rings and nose rings, 22 the fine robes and the capes and cloaks, the purses 23 and mirrors, and the linen garments and tiaras and shawls.

24 Instead of fragrance there will be a stench;
instead of a sash, a rope;
instead of well-dressed hair, baldness;
instead of fine clothing, sackcloth;
instead of beauty, branding.

25 Your men will fall by the sword,
your warriors in battle.

26 The gates of Zion will lament and mourn;
destitute, she will sit on the ground.

As much as conservatives respect our military, and with justification, it is also true that PCness and diversity babble has been prominent in our military for a few decades now, and no group of Americans is more thoroughly indoctrinated in PCness and diversity babble than our senior military officers.

How much that indoctrination has taken would vary from individual to individual, but I’m sure we all recall how General Casey said that “losing our diversity” would have been worse than the atrocity committed by a Muslim at Fort Hood.

That's not really true. The Navy has never been more combat effective than it was early in the decade.

The problem now is reducing operational budgets, ramping up deployment cycles by calling them surge ops, and shrinking the force. This is being done at the same time we've volunteered to provide 16,000 bodies to the Army. Even if a soldier isn't in combat arms he has still had more ground combat training than a sailor. It is also a waste to take highly trained aviators and flight officers and send them to Afghanistan for a year to do all the Army's staff work for them.

The are going to accomplish two things with this program.

Promote incompetance. I've already seen this before in a big way.

Take away all credibility for minorities that could have gotten there on their abilities and not their ethnicity/race.

This stuff already happens in all the services, but this is the first time I've heard of a list.
