EDITORIAL: Holder’s severe mental deficiency
The Washington Times ^ | August 22, 2012 | Editorial

Justice Department takes affirmative action to crazy extremes

You don’t have to have a severe intellectual disability to work at the Justice Department. But it helps.

According to a July 31 policy memo titled “Hiring of persons with targeted disabilities,” otherwise problematic mental deficiencies are no barrier to jump-starting a career at Justice. The memo lists a number of “targeted disabilities” that trigger special hiring privileges in compliance with President Obama’s Executive Order 13548. Among them are people with “severe intellectual disability,” “psychiatric disability” or other undefined “current severe physical, intellectual or mental conditions.” Most employers would balk at even minor mental disabilities in hiring a lawyer, let alone severe ones. But the policy states that the Cabinet department run by Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. must “achieve a work force from all segments of society,” which includes those who are teetering on the edge of sanity.

Mr. Holder’s crazy new human-resources priority says it’s necessary to ensure that people with targeted disabilities “have equal employment opportunities.” It then goes into detail on all the ways in which they will be given special, exclusive treatment. The disabled are eligible for direct hiring in a “streamlined, non-competitive appointment” process that the policy lauds as a “win-win” for the department and the applicant. Of course, this preferential treatment is a lose-lose for the other, perhaps vastly more qualified applicants who were never let in the door, as well as for American taxpayers who cannot benefit from a superior level of public service.

This is nothing new to Holder/Obama's Injustice Department, they've hired over a hundred civil service attorneys spread throughout the dept and every one of them are mentally challenged, to a person every hire is a liberal leftist.

Holder always sounds like he has a head cold. Is he a chronic cocaine user?

So. Would it be a conflict of interest for Biden to take a DOJ job on the side?

Is this satire?

That is a valid question and under any other administration the answer would be yes, but with this administration I'm afraid everyone knows it's not.

There's not a thing with the Obama/Holder hookup that surprises me any longer.

Thanks jazusamo.
He added that crimes like banditry, drug trafficking or illicit use, homosexuality, murder, terrorism and other subversive activities against either the state or the people will not be tolerated... "By the middle of next month, all the death sentences would have been carried out to the letter; there is no way my government will allow 99 percent of the population to be held to ransom by criminals," Jammeh said.
Hey, cool, he's sticking up for the 99%. Word to US perverts, queens, and NAMBLA child molesters.

The Dept of Justice is not just lawyers. It includes the BATF, the FBI, US Marshals Service, etc, etc. What this directive does is to streamline the process of hiring ghetto thugs and psychopaths, and giving them guns and badges.

I doubt that the DOJ will have to hire any new people (other than a couple of PHYSICAL dwarfs), just re-designate his core deputy AGs to the correct mental deficient, deviant, corrupt or whatever minority diversity category.

This mess will have to be cleaned up quickly when Romney gets elected.
