Obama Issues Executive Order on ‘Diversity’ [no more hiring white people for fed jobs]
National Review Online ^ | August 19, 2011 | Roger Clegg

Posted on 08/20/2011 7:12:31 AM PDT by PapaBear3625

President Obama issued an executive order yesterday titled, “Establishing a Coordinated Government-Wide Initiative to Promote Diversity and Inclusion in the Federal Workforce.” It’s quite vague, extolling the value of diversity without defining it, and setting up a “government-wide initiative” for “all agencies” that will “develop and issue a Government-wide Diversity and Inclusion Strategic Plan.” Details later, and the devil, of course, will be in the details.

Still, it’s bad enough already. If government personnel are told to strive for diversity, then of course they will be putting their fat thumbs on the scale to ensure a politically correct racial, ethnic, and gender mix, and that means that there will be divisive, unfair, inefficient discrimination, with the best qualified people not getting hired and promoted.

Obama has just told the federal government "no more hiring of white, straight, males unless you can document that it was absolutely necessary". Earlier in the week, Maxine Waters effectively told him "Do something NOW about black unemployment, or we will ignore you in 2012.

He's getting increasingly desperate.

Obama knows he has already lost the white heterosexual vote.

I sure hope someone is keeping a list of everything that has to be undone when this feces is voted out.

He is doing this as if these hiring practices haven’t been in overdrive in the Federal government for years. Blatant reverse discrimmination.

I almost hesitate to ask this, but could this administration possibly get any worse?

Washington Times: "Obama: Whites need not apply". That's going to leave a mark.

Diversity means non-White. When was the last time you heard detroit wasn’t diverse enough? Detroit is already nearly 100 percent diverse.

Diverse is a code word for non-White.
Anti-racism is a code word for anti-White.

I want everybody to realize how insidiously our thinking is shaped by language with this example:

Think of the variants of the root for "diverse": adverse, perverse, obverse, averse, inverse, converse... The word implies opposition and conflict.

Now consider "diversity" in contrast to the word, "variety." The difference is obvious, the latter is merely an array of differences, while the former implies conflict of interest. Look at the consequences...

Wherever there is conflict, there is need for settlement: bureaucrats, police, lawyers, prison guards... Hence "diversity" as opposed to "variety" as far as the Slave Party is concerned has been a bonanza for the budding police state. Yes, the word is that insidious and so are they.

"I almost hesitate to ask this, but could this administration possibly get any worse?

What we've seen to date is nothing compared to the shitstorm that's going to rain down if Obama wins in 2012.

This is interesting. I don't believe any executive order can trump veterans preference though. I'd welcome input from any folks who are knowledgeable. Can this really effect the preference given to say, disabled veterans?

Oh yes! Special patches sewn to the shirts of Christians. Deportations of white people to “safe” places where we can “find work”.

Obama’s plan is not new. The white liberal elite think they’re safe—they’re just the last to go.

This isn’t true is it? Does the E.O. Have a number? “This will not stand” as the Big Lebowski said.

Our electric bill has already skyrocketed. We went from $75.00 last month to $211.00 this month. Same with our neighbors. It will continue to go up until the people say “No more”.

Rule by decree. The feds have become a force unto themselves, a force that we must bow down before, or else suffer their wrath. Let’s give the feds a taste of what happened to the last empire that tried to rule us by decree, and to show them how the US came into existence in the first place.
