I missed Clintonite moldy oldie-turned-Obama economic adviser Robert Reichs testimony a few weeks ago on how the government should spend federal stimulus money. The Berkeley professor engaged in academic fantasy land talk about getting all the cash out to workers as quickly as possible a pipe dream debunked by the CBO report I mentioned in my column yesterday.
Even more noteworthy, however, were the comments Reich made about which workers deserve the stimulus bucks most. Reichs proposal exposes the lie that the Obama administration is actually interested in revitalizing basic infrastructure for the good of the economy. No, what Team Obama really wants is to ensure that the least skilled, least qualified workers get jobs based on their chromosomes and pigment.
Reich wrote on his blog:
The stimulus plan will create jobs repairing and upgrading the nations roads, bridges, ports, levees, water and sewage system, public-transit systems, electricity grid, and schools. And it will kick-start alternative, non-fossil based sources of energy (wind, solar, geothermal, and so on); new health-care information systems; and universal broadband Internet access.
Its a two-fer: lots of new jobs, and investments in the nations future productivity.
But if there arent enough skilled professionals to do the jobs involving new technologies, the stimulus will just increase the wages of the professionals who already have the right skills rather than generate many new jobs in these fields. And if construction jobs go mainly to white males who already dominate the

Hey Michigan workers, Hope this was what you wanted when you voted for Hussein. Now live with it you unemployed fools.
Remember when liberals told us that racism was wrong, and we were naieve enough to agree with them? All that they said about no preferences, etc, it was all just a ploy to turn the tables on us.
Oh yes it can, you ain't seen nothing yet. Obama's MARXISM is just starting in AmeriKa.
Why you genetic garbage malformed racist throwback freak. No such thing as an out of work white male huh? Lets all just not mention the construction industry is nearly 100% illegal aliens wetbacks and a white man cant get an ordinary job in construction anyway. Forget the FACT that about one third of the money paid to those wetbacks is nothing other than welfare to mexico.
What a sorry excuse of a human being. Racist s&itbag.
The more I think about this, the more infuriated I get.
The ONE thing alot of people in my area were saying was “Well, I hate he got in, but at least with this road building project, we’ll get some work”. That was the lone concilation to alot of men around here.
Too bad they are going to be SOL because they are the wrong damn color.
At some point, someone has to fight back. I’m telling you, I’m going to turn into a Conservative Hippy (with baths) and protest this whole system.
This crap was going on long before Obama and his conga line of Communist took over.
This crap was going on right under Bush, and a Republican majority.
Government sponsored racism has been occurring for some years now.
Imagine being a white guy looking for job, and the first thing you see on a job ad is, "Minorities and women encouraged to apply".
In other words, "male whites" need not apply.
Outrageous does not begin to describe what has been happening for years now.
Yea no kidding!
As a purchasing manager, I got a call from a potential vendor.
She offered proudly that she represented a, “women owned business”. I inquired, exactly what does that offer to my business? So tired of un-equality being portrayed as the new “equal”. We have entered the realm of true idiocy.
I fear for the republic.
Seriously, a girl from the hood in East Chicago lived with us for a year. She'd say the same thing. She'd laugh her a$$ off at the very idea.
these guys really are trying to provoke a situation that will validate their latent, and recently, not-so-latent racism...
Become an expert in something they can’t do.
If anyone has been long term unemployed in the economy of the last 16 years then they did not want a job or they were in prison.
For most of the last 16 years the unemployment rate has been less than 5 percent.
That put the country at basically full employment. Anyone who really wanted a job could find a job. You may have had to relocate but there were jobs for those who wanted them.
Further evidence that you can’t trust a liberal.
“Outrageous does not begin to describe what has been happening for years now.”
Consider this, if white men were so racist, unfair, power mad, intolerant and violent, how did all those women and minorities we were repressing, manage to take over the country? It certainly wasn’t through force. They used our sense of fairness and our ideals against us. Their only ideal is power.
You need to get updated. They made it easy for them long ago. P>
This has been going on a long time, especially in government.
Ya see all those high rise government building in downtown areas all over the landscape? They're filled with these types of people and their girl friends and wives, that have all been hired by various governments and various government agencies...These people have been hired by the millions. (Minorities and women encourage to apply)
All all sitting on their asses all day, sharpening their finger nails, and demanding more pay raises. and these *millions* of government employees produce *nothing* and are all basically part of the machine to collect *your* money.

Forget the rope market, corner the lockbox market because that’s where every Republican Congressman’s balls are.
“I heard the a-hole on TV tonight. He’s against giving it to “Skilled Professionals” as well.”
I’m sure that will go down well with the 5,000 Microsoft employees that found out they’re getting canned in a couple of months!
I think political jobs should always go to tall people, and politicians should only listen to the advice of tall people. That way Reich can join the unemployment line.
