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.

FUBO GTFO !
First, stacking the Federal Gov with his people is a kind of redistribution and then, second, when anyone tries to cut Federal spending, he can scream "racism."
True in general but as for specific agencies it is not. Hispanics make up over 50% of the US Border Patrol.
Diversity would mirror the population.
To ME that would mean there would be about 11% blacks working in the Federal government and if it exceeded that you’d freeze their hiring until the population percentages matched the employee demographics.
I still think you just hire the best person for a job. I think we also shrink Federal employment way down to what it used to be as a percentage of the population back in the 60s, not the over 10% of population that it is today.
>>Y’all are failing to see the point.
I am NOT failing to see the point. When Obamastan is fully formed, the public sector is crushed under the weight of the government. All non-laborer jobs are government jobs. Only non-whites can have government jobs. This isn’t about jobs or taxes or the economy or even kickbacks to his peeps. Obama is a freaking communist! In the end, he thinks everyone gets a job and free housing and food. This is about slow genocide. We need to stop thinking that we are fighting for our 401k and start thinking that we are fighting for our existence.
The order states "the head of each executive department and agency ... shall ... designate the agency's Chief Human Capital Officer to be responsible for enhancing employment and promotion opportunities within the agency".
So you're the "Human Capital Officer" (Director of Human Resources, whatever), and the President Hisself has decreed that he will hold YOU personally responsible for increasing black employment in your department. What do you think the Personnel people will do?
He is now laying the predicate to accuse the Republicans of being racists if they dare oppose this blatant pandering to prefer one race over others or, more precisely, to prefer all races over one. Not incidentally, we see him also now laying the predicate to accuse the Republicans of racism against Hispanics if they oppose his new amnesty regime.
On the economic front he is doing the same with his forthcoming recovery plan. It does not matter that his recovery plan has been tried to the tune of trillions of dollars and failed. It does not matter that he is attacking a strawman when he alleges by inference discrimination in the government' s hiring practices. It matters only that he will assume the high ground and those who attack that position will be vilified in the media.
Nathan Bedford's first maximum of American politics: all politics in America is not local but ultimately racial.
More about race - the election of 2012 will be the race elections - it is all Obama has to run on.
So Obama has finally made it official...a white is now only 3/5s a person.
Too true. I read an article a few weeks ago discussing the destruction of the black midle class due to declining govt employment because so many middle class blacks have a govt. job.
That graph clearly shows why Detroit is a hell hole.
Jews were denied the right to hold public office or civil service positions: Reichsgesetzblatt 1933, Part 1, Page 277, signed by Defendant Frick. It was determined to relegate the Jews to an inferior status by denying them common privileges and freedoms. Thus, they were denied access to certain city areas, sidewalks, transportation, places of amusement, restaurants: 1938 Reichsgesetzblatt, Part I, Page 1676. Progressively more and still more stringent measures were applied, even to the denial of private pursuits. They were excluded from the practice of dentistry: 1939 Reichsgesetzblatt, Part I, Page 47, signed by Defendant Hess
Its just starting. Incremental and slow, but just starting.
Here in the DC area, where the most bloated Government paychecks reside, blacks make up about 65% of the Federal workforce.
Nah, he's trying to get back those stray black voters who've wandered off the plantation in plenty of time for his 2011 campaign.
He's "doubling down". He knows he's toast in 2012 unless he can get some enthusiasm from his base. He wants every black government employee to believe that his job and promotion prospects are completely tied to Barry's re-election in 2012, so they will be active in campaigning and getting votes for him.
Jim Crow now goes by Affirmative Action.
