President Obama's diversity czar at the Federal Communications Commission has spoken publicly of getting white media executives to "step down" in favor of minorities, prescribed policies to make liberal talk radio more successful, and described Hugo Chavez's rise to power in Venezuela "an incredible revolution."

They are also worrying to some conservatives who fear the FCC might use its powers to remove their competitive advantage on talk radio and television

I think the word is not Czar but commissar—a political officer attached to every government agency to make sure that officers toed the party line.

How exactly does one define or impose diversity? I don't think any man can come to a definitive conclusion. Is Lloyd trying to play G-d?

I swear, I think I’m hallucinating when I hear about some of the stuff that’s going on.
Maybe that’s their new trick.
To do so many outrageously unbelievable things out in the open that we refuse to believe our own “lying” eyes and ears.

Diversity means “pick any color you want, as long as it’s not white”/s

It’s time we declared two Long Wars:
The Overseas Long War = The War On Terror
The Domestic Long War = The War On Communism
Unfortunately the war doesn’t end when our brave men and women come home.
