Seven months after taking office, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. is reshaping the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division by pushing it back into some of the most important areas of American political life, including voting rights, housing, employment, bank lending practices and redistricting after the 2010 census.
As part of this shift, the Obama administration is planning a major revival of high-impact civil rights enforcement against policies, in areas ranging from housing to hiring, where statistics show that minorities fare disproportionately poorly. President George W. Bush’s appointees had discouraged such tactics, preferring to focus on individual cases in which there is evidence of intentional discrimination.
To bolster a unit that has been battered by heavy turnover and a scandal over politically tinged hiring under the Bush administration, the Obama White House has also proposed a hiring spree that would swell the ranks of several hundred civil rights lawyers with more than 50 additional lawyers, a significant increase for a relatively small but powerful division of the government.

WOW! Would any white person be surprised by this.
politicly tinged hiring during the Bush administration...ahhh going to hire black panther thugs to run it. If i were a crime boss that is exactly what i would do.
We won, now we will do our own politically tinged hiring spree. Nobody will notice.
Just what are these so called “civil rights”? Do whites have “civil rights”?
This is comical considering Americans overwhelmingly elected a black president...
Where be Reverend Wright??
according to the constitution we do have rights...but dont think that matters anymore...conservatives will never win another election....
true
Whoa, what does that mean? Civil rights enforcement against policies. Exactly what policies are they targeting? We have policies/regulations to prevent discrimination in all the areas listed. Is this where or how reparations comes into being? The way this sentence is being expressed this is not an increased enforcement action of existing laws.
Sometime soon, this race card won´t be in the game. SO MANY inter racial marriages and mixes, people having babies...that soon everyone will have some ´black´. Then what?
I wonder how long it will be before they decide they’d like to have my house to live in and it will be perfectly legal for them to just take it.
One law for racial minorities and Afro Americans ( selective enforcement of the law), and another law for white folks ( absolute enforcement of every law and then some, while disregarding the Bill of Rights),Officer Cheeks:" This ain't America no mo!").
AND IF YOU OBJECT TO HOLDER, HOMELAND SECURITY BE KNOCKIN AT YO' DOH ( allegedly inciting riot,and watch for the new hate speech laws to come)
ITS HISTORIC JUSTICE ( the calling card of national socilaists , fascists, throughout history, while small voices unheard say" I wasn't even alive then, its not our faults, the alleged sins of our fathers as political policy???)
Such bogus historic justice is the foundation philosophy of the entire Obama Administration. We tried to warn voters, but McCain wouldn't say it. Nor would McCain allow PACS to say it.
NOW WE MUST FIGHT TO BE RID OF THEM!!!!!
We need a conservative elected to the Senate from Massachusetts to fill Kennedy's seat, wouldn't it be intersting if Sarah Palin ran????
An example of a high-impact area that Obama will attack.
After 35 years, next Atlanta mayor could be white

Applying for any federal program shows that whites
are the “new blacks” in the most racially divided
time in America I have ever seen.
