Thanks for what you do texas booster.

When I think about the airline safety, I'm reminded of that ace pilot flying out of New York a few years ago who had a bird strike and successfully landed the airplane in the Hudson River.

No affirmative action pilot could do that.

In the bigger picture, I'm also concerned that America's greatest job creating companies will be destroyed by affirmative action at the top: hiring unqualified CEOs and board members to fill a LGBTQ, gender, or racial/ethnic quota.

Back in 2018, Fortune published a terrific story about how Carl Icahn saved Xerox from being swallowed by Fuji Film. It's a classic case of a CEO being hired above here pay grade. The Peter Principle or Petra (female) Principle at work.

Check out this story. Great read with a happy ending.

One way to respond to this dangerous anti-merit idiocy is to mock democrats with their own tactics.

We need to form our own ‘sexual kink’ groups - or ‘pigmentation’ groups - and play up the victim status of all members - demanding protection in the form of sensitivity training, job security, and other assorted perks.
