black man sues the state for giving him excessive Affirmative Action? Now that tag is a bit disingenuous don't ya think? Looks to me like dude got canned from a plush gig because he wasn't up to it, and then tried to blame British Affirmative Action. Not exactly the same now is it? Hehe... I think you know my position on Affirmative Action. I am against it in principle, but I am still waiting for something better to be proposed. Posted by David A at January 10, 2006 10:18 AM

How is it disingenuous? He was given special favoritism due to his race--which is always a racist thing to do by the way--and he sued because he couldn't handle the position he was given. I don't see any other way of putting it. As for waiting for something better than an utterly racist and despicable program like Affirmative Action: how about basing it on POVERTY, which isn't racist, rather than on RACE, which is? I read recently that the rate of black poverty is "three times the white rate." By which they mean, 7% of whites are in poverty, and 21% of blacks--which mean 79% of blacks ARE NOT living in poverty, and by which they apparently mean, poor white trash don't count for shit, let's roll over them so millionaire black kids can get a special break. Give me a break... Posted by: Dean Esmay Actually, I agree with you on the point about poverty being used as a guide. Now that is a progressive idea.
