WARD WATCH: Affirmative action bad, institutionalized racism good!
CVK
California paper Red Bluff Daily News covers Ward “Moneybags” Connerly’s recent speech at a Republican fundraiser. Interesting that the paper refers to affirmative action as “racial preferencing.” Anyway, here’s Ward’s usual load of bull:
“It shouldn’t be controversial for me to say that giving a person 250 bonus points simply because of his or her race is discriminating against another group and marginalizing the group you are favoring,” he said. “We fought for civil rights in 1964, everyone should receive equal justice under law.”
He rallied against the concept of diversity as a code word for discrimination.
“Political correctness is a concept that is destroying us,” he added.
Connerly also warned those in attendance not to become complacent in the face of victory but to be ever vigilent.
The last typo is theirs, not mine.

Ward Connerly is nothing more than a Benedict Arnold to black Americans. Too bad there’s no drop squad for people like him.

Such race-based AA is outdated at best and only rewards underachievement.
It’s no wonder the US is outsourcing everything to China and India now - we simply cannot compete anymore against harder-working, smarter competitors who are living in reality, not a PC de facto-Communist fantasy world. In the end, by lowering the bar to our lowest common denominator, we are only cheating ourselves and we all lose in the end.
