Howie Carr makes a very interesting point – liberals support reverse discrimination because they and their kids will not be affected by it personally. Their kids are not going to become firemen, policemen, sanitation workers, public school teachers, teamsters, subway conductors, etc. The diversity that they celebrate will never impact negatively on a Kennedy, Rockefeller, Bush, Gore, Edwards, Clinton, Obama, Kerry, Warren, Pelosi, et al. Their kids will all get into the best schools as legacies. Ted Kennedy hired someone to take a Spanish test for him at Harvard – did he pay a price for it?

The Beautiful People still can’t figure out what all the fuss is about over Granny Warren’s family “lore.”
The other day, The Washington Post ran a lengthy story about the 62-year-old Oklahoman’s sputtering campaign. Would you care to guess how far down you had to read to find the first mention of the fake-Indian fiasco?
The 21st paragraph.
The problem the elites have understanding the power of this story is simple. They’ve never been passed over for a job they were qualified for because of some allegedly disadvantaged person who wasn’t.
Nobody ever leapfrogged over a moonbat’s kids into a good school because of the racial spoils system. As Michael Barone put it yesterday, the upper classes have no comprehension of the “rottenness” of this system. (And even if they did, it would be un-PC to bring it up).
[......]
Someone passed over for a job because he’s white? But Chauncy, don’t the ads always say “Equal Opportunity Employer”? Must be another of those anecdotes our eminently qualified governor Patrick is always talking about.
Liberals are all for affirmative action … in the police and fire departments, because they know their kids won’t be working there.
Oh sure, someone in the Harvard counseling office might sadly inform a young Trustafarian that he might have a problem getting into the law school. But then Someone who knows Someone picks up the phone and young Throckmorton suddenly bumps a kid from Quincy with higher LSAT’s who never knows what hit him, although he probably has his suspicions.
Guys grew up around here figuring they’d be the third, maybe even fourth-generation cop in their family. Now they’re pounding a beat … at the mall.
The racial spoils system doesn’t reduce the number of legacies in the freshman class, but it damn sure decimates the population of working-class whites and Asians. It’s as if the old white-shoe outfits have dusted off their old “No Irish Need Apply” signs. Only now they say, “Celebrate Diversity.”
Granny’s fellow multimillionaire academics may pooh-pooh it this summer on the Vineyard, but this is going to be a problem for Pinnochio-hantas. Nobody who ever lost out, or thinks they lost out, on a good school or job because somebody played the racial trump card on them is ever going to vote for that person.

This is so true. We have these employee networking groups. Black, Hispanic, Women, LGBTXYZ… they are all about seperating us into groups. We are not just employees. When I applied for an internal job, I was told that since I was a minority, I filled one of the requirements but they couldn’t offer me the job cause they needed a woman to apply. She wouldn’t get the job but they needed to check the box. I said, just put me down as a black trans-gendered woman in a wheel chair and we are done… HR didn’t think it was funny.

I’ve even had support for diversity as an item in a performance review. Not applicable in my position as a technical person.

It’s time to eliminate all racial tracking. Period. If people want to spend their time tracking their great-great-great grand-parentage, let them do it on their own time, but get government and institutions out of the ancestral blood tracking business. If it truly doesn’t matter, then delete the “race” column from all governmental and institutional spreadsheets; instead of a “national conversation about race”, let’s have a movement to “STFU about race”.
Hell, in a very short period of time, the smoker has become cultural personae non grata, why not those who pratter on as nauseum about race? Let’s just smugly shun them with a “tsk, tsk” and an annoyingly superior attitude. It’ll take a little time, but a lot less than you might think; The Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharptons are dinosaurs, let’s treat them as such and then watch them, in increasingly more vehement terms, defend their race business. Eventually, they’ll reveal themselves to the world as no more morally superior than the classic caricature of a late-50′s Mississippi Sheriff.

Of course not, this employee balkinization and grevience is a major factor driving their staffing. Ever notice that HR is never impacted during right-sizings?
Other than on-bording and 1 question recently about a term I wanted clarified in our healthcare elections, I’ve never had to interact with HR. Too many people like me and it would be hard to justify HR’s staffing levels.

Our HR dept is worthless. They do not care about the employee. Just want to make sure the company gets sued. I worked for a black woman who OPENLY favored other blacks. She would give them great ratings which would get them good raises and bonuses. once she left, the new manager rated them the way they should have been. When ever the diversity question comes up I always say… “Shouldn’t we hire the best person, regardless of race, etc..” I get weird looks.

About a decade ago I was passed over for a job that I was extremely qualified for because the company needed a woman to fill the position.

In 1970, the girl who would become Mrs. Huckfunn (I’ll call her CM) applied for a job with the Texas Department of Daycare Licensing. The lady reviewing CM’s application and conducting the interview became noticeably excited when she saw that the place of birth for CM’s mother was San Juan Puerto Rico. However, it was a false alarm. CM’s mother is as white as can be. She was born in Puerto Rico because her parents were missionaries there.
