President Barack Obama has signed an executive order directing the federal government to design a new strategy for hiring, promoting and keeping workers of diverse backgrounds. The three-page order released Thursday directs the head of the Office of Personnel Management, a deputy director at the Office of Management and Budget and two other agencies to develop the strategy within 90 days. Agencies then have 120 days to implement it. An Office of Personnel Management report says that in fiscal year 2010, the federal workforce was 66.2 percent white, 17.7 percent black, 8 percent Hispanic, 5.6 percent Asian/Pacific Islander, 1.8 percent Native American. It was 56.1 percent male.

“Wait, what about the LGBT crowd? Don’t they count?”

I would check that box if it would help me get a job, and if I don’t have to prove it.

Whites make up more than 66 percent of US citizens. 0 just announced his “get Whitey” policy.

It's more than just employment. In O's view of a transformed America, everything is directed from the top, i.e., from the Federal government. Making the Federal workforce a minority dominated workforce -- both through hiring, promotion, and white attrition policies -- effectively establishes a minority ruling class in many areas.

I had thought there were 18% black. Just looked, it’s about 12, 13.

I’m sure that Obama is not concerned that there are TOO MANY blacks in fedgov.

The stock market is tanking, Israel is being bombed from Egypt, the world is on the brink of a worldwide depression and this is what Obama is worried about? Too many white people in government jobs.

Way to ramp up the race war the Dems need for 2012. Put this story together with the DHS stopping deportation and you've got quite an ugly agenda. He is literally changing our culture by flooding us with foreigners, and then putting them in positions of authority over the native born, english speaking, taxpaying citizenry. Sounds like Rev. Wright thought up this plan to me.

Today has been a busy day. Obama also just issued what amounts to an amnesty by Executive Order. This is just another EO to divide and polarize. The federal government has the most diverse workforce of any organization in the country. In fact, blacks are overrepresented. This is all part of his election strategy to energize minorities.

Hispanics can be of any race. 54% of Hispanics self-identify as white. I wonder how the government decides if you are Hispanic or not. One drop rule?

No, this is probably a result of Maxine Waters and her whine. Promote black people. Pretend they have a job and pay them to keep storage of Twinkies and Cheetos in their office drawers.

Since when is your race a “background”? That’s blatant racism.

Obama continues to focus like a laser on racism, his No. 1 priority.

He knows once Holder’s People are hired by the Federal Government the only way to get them out is with a direct hit on Washington, DC.

Blacks make up 12.6 percent of the population,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_American

but they’re 17 percent of the federal employee labor force. Seems to me, they’re already overrepresented in the federal employee workforce.

Let’s make it more accurate. Cut 5% of the weakest of the black employees, and replace them with intelligent hardworking Asians and watch the productivity go through the freakin’ roof.

I guess affirmative action didn’t lower the standards far enough. He wants a new lowering.

If we go low enough we might match the IQ level of the CBC.

This is nothing new. The federal government has used race and sex quotas for hiring for many years.
