Full Title: Unprecedented Removal of Register of Copyrights Causes Consternation in Copyright Community
Maria Pallante, the Register of Copyrights and Director of the United States Copyright Office, submitted her resignation today, after being abruptly removed and transferred from office last Friday by Dr. Carla Hayden, the new Librarian of Congress, who was sworn in just weeks ago. According to a statement issued by the Library of Congress, Hayden transferred Pallante to a newly created non-managerial position within the Library, Senior Advisor for Digital Strategy. Karyn Temple Claggett, an Associate Register, was appointed Acting Register of Copyrights, effective immediately.
We are disappointed to see Pallante go. She was a devoted leader of the Copyright Office, launching several major initiatives—including a full review of the Copyright Act to bring it into the 21st Century, and the modernization of the Copyright Office to better serve the evolving needs of digital-era Copyright Office constituents—initiatives that took great vision and courage. She also oversaw a full review of and set of recommendations for bringing the Office’s technology into the 21st Century; she shored up copyright registration practices and created a comprehensive online guide to registration and recordation—the 2014 Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices, Third Edition—which was the first wholesale revision of the Compendium in 30 years.

“This is the point where we need to do some brainstorming to figure out how the Copyright Office can be politically suborned. Because whatever method that is, that’s their plan.”
You can take that assumption to the bank.
“Hired on the basis of skin color and her friendship with Obama.”
Turns out that not only was Black African American Carla Hayden hired on the basis of skin color and political orientation and connections to Obama’s minions, but ALSO the woman who’s been appointed to replace the woman who was summarily removed by Hayden is ALSO black! Google for photos of Karyn Temple Claggett and you’ll see for yourself that the woman who was put into the fired woman’s slot is also Black African American and even resembles the new African American librarian of congress appointee, Carla Hayden, appointed by racist Barack Obama. Just such wholesale cascading summary firing of most, if not all whites at all levels of civil service and high level appointed posts and other government positions happened in South Africa after the Black coup d’état in that country. A Black face was the requirement to be hired to replace the white face. Racism pure and simple.
The Obama administration has been hiring Blacks and homosexuals for every job in sight and having those appointees appoint other appointees based solely on being Black or homosexual.
Like people accurately point out, Jimmy Carter has to be happy about the Obama presidency.
