The perfect comic for illustrating affirmative action? |
During Tuesday’s edition of MSNBC’s “The Cycle,” co-host Touré made the argument that without affirmative action in colleges, “the entire leadership of America would become entirely white.”
This, he explained, is barely a “whitewashing of what we already have” in America today.
“The Cycle” hosted Richard Sander and Stuart Taylor Jr., the authors of “Mismatch: How Affirmative Action Hurts Students It’s Intended to Help, and Why Universities Won’t Admit It.” Touré began by citing the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, which called their work “junk science,” in an attempt to discredit them before even allowing them to make their case.
“You suggest that it’s better for these black and brown students to go to second tier schools rather than to go to Harvard or Yale, the first tier schools. The entire Supreme Court comes from Harvard or Yale. Almost all presidents, Harvard or Yale – all the top of corporate America,” Touré said.
“So, if we follow your prescription then the entire leadership of America would become entirely white, which is just a barely whitewashing of what we already have,” he added.What if the government, academia, the military, and private and public employers actually based their hiring decisions on merit? Touré perfectly understands the reality of what affirmative action enables non-white people to achieve in America: what they couldn't achieve were merit the only barometer for success.
Perhaps that's why right after Barack Obama won a second term, an initiative banning affirmative action - that passed in 2006 with 58 percent of the vote - in Michigan was overturned by the Sixth Circuit Court [Affirmative Action Ban in Michigan Is Rejected, New York Times, 11-15-12].
Friends of Toure were popping champagne bottles over this news. Better, those organizations that filed Amicus Curiae Briefs on Behalf of the University of Michigan in the 2003 Supreme Court case on affirmative action were also joining in the popping of corks:
Several organizations have filed briefs on behalf of the University of Michigan in Gratz v. Bollinger & Grutter v. Bollinger
88 colleges and universities, both public and private, and more than 50 higher education associations representing virtually every college and university in the nation;
68 Fortune 500 corporations
29 former high-ranking military leaders;
24 U.S. states and territories, the cities of Philadelphia and Cleveland, and the National Conference of Black Mayors;
Labor unions, including the AFL-CIO, AFCSME, and NEA;
Religious organizations, including the American Jewish Committee and seven other Jewish organizations;
More than two dozen members of Congress;
American Education Research Association, American Psychological Association, American Sociological Association, and many other organizations specializing in social science research;
Civil rights organizations including the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, National Urban League, United Negro College Fund, and the ACLU;
A dozen Native American tribes and organizations;
25 Asian/Pacific-American organizations;
Hispanic and Latino organizations, including the New America Alliance;
National Academy of Sciences and Engineering;
18 broadcast media companies and organizations;
Legal organizations and legal education groups, including the American Bar Association and 10 law school deans;
More than 14,000 law students nationwide;
The authors of the 10-percent admissions plan in Texas
A plethora of friends of the court briefs have been filed in the Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin - a current Supreme Court case being heard on affirmative action deep in the heart of Texas - as well:
An amicus brief submitted by 37 other private colleges — including Amherst College, Tufts University and Williams College — expressed concern as to the potential of the Court’s decision to impact their admissions policies as well.Well, hold your horses [Ruling that outlawed Michigan’s affirmative action ban halted pending Supreme Court appeal, Washington Post, 11-30-12]:
In addition to the briefs submitted by the Ivies and the liberal arts colleges, briefs were submitted by 17 U.S. senators, 66 members of congress, Teach for America, 57 Fortune 100 companies and nearly 1,000 other individuals or institutions.
The ruling that ended Michigan’s ban on affirmative action in college admissions was put on hold Friday until the U.S. Supreme Court decides to hear an appeal by the state’s attorney general.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati issued an order staying its Nov. 15 ruling that the voter-approved mandate was unconstitutional.
Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette filed a petition Thursday asking the high court to review the ruling.
“The ruling is on hold until the Supreme Court says it will take the appeal,” said Joy Yearout, a spokeswoman for Schuette.
If the high court hears the appeal, the stay will remain until the Supreme Court makes a ruling. If Schuette’s appeal is denied, then the affirmative action ban is ended, she added.
In 2006, Michigan voters amended the state constitution to ban the use of race in choosing students.
In their 8-7 decision, the appeals court said the amendment is illegal because it presents an extraordinary burden to opponents who would have to mount their own long, expensive campaign through the ballot box to protect affirmative action.
That burden “undermines the Equal Protection Clause’s guarantee that all citizens ought to have equal access to the tools of political change,” Judge R. Guy Cole Jr. wrote for the majority on the appeals court.
Schuette said in his petition that the appeals court misapplied the Supreme Court’s “equal-protection precedents.”
“It is exceedingly odd to say that a statute which bars a state from discriminating ... on the basis of race violates the Equal Protection Clause because it discriminates on the basis of race and sex,” Schuette wrote.
Since a 2003 Supreme Court decision, universities have been allowed to use racial preferences if they choose, though they are not compelled to do so. Michigan, Washington, Nebraska, Arizona, New Hampshire, California and Florida have banned racial preferences in admissions. Leading public universities in Texas and Georgia use a race-neutral system, though the University of Texas has maintained some use of affirmative action.The one issue that could propel the GOP to a huge midterm electoral victory in 2014, a defense of merit in the hiring of all public or private employees and in the application process of colleges and universities... is one that won't be addressed at all.
We are on our own.
Just read from the list of those filing Amicus Curiae Briefs on behalf of Michigan and Texas, and you'll understand who are allied with Touré in erecting a permanent anti-white structure governing life in America.
We are on our own.

The Federal Government is clearly the adversary of normal taxpayers.
Again, one can only observe that despite half a century of liberal social engineering, blacks can not compete on their own in America. It's an admission of epic fail.
I have been a Georgia public school high school teacher for 22 years. In those 22 years, with twelve of those years in a predominately black school district. NOT ONCE has there ever been a Star Student (the senior who scores highest on the SAT) who is black. In those 22years, there have been (maybe) two honor graduates. And black AP students are as rare as snow in Florida.
Now,....let the mongrel sissy Toure talk to me about affirmative action and black achievement.
The country needs to fail big time, like a massive economic collapse or lose a major war.
Many of those in the amicus curie brief would not be able to make their own affirmative action quotas unless colleges kept enough cattle in the pens.
None of these groups are our friends (big business, labor, military, religions and especially governments).
Some more on this case:
This demonstrates that the civil rights movement of the last century was a fraud. It had nothing -- nothing! -- to do with judging-people-by-the-content-of-their-character(tm). It was everything about establishing a race based system: BRA.
It ought to also get people thinking that maybe George Wallace had a point in defending segregation. The civil rights movement was not about equality. In practice, it was about replacing the older white supremacist system with a black supremacist system: BRA.
I suppose it would be nice to believe that somehow whites and blacks could work together. But it is quite clear that blacks have been unable to uphold their end of the deal. Over the last half century their rates of criminality, illegitimacy, educational failures, infrastructure destruction, and etc., have taken them out of an even competition. It isn't the legacy of slavery-segregation which makes blacks unable to compete on an even field; blacks were given everything they demanded, yet have been unable to bring themselves up to standard. Now the race hustlers and their DWL handlers want to penalize white people for the failures of blacks.
This court case can not be seen in isolation: it has to be seen in light of globalization, de facto open borders, growing federal police powers, and the bread & circuses which are generally known as: BRA.
off topic...but Paul, Obama at work:
The U.S. Export-Import Bank, an agency of the federal government, is lending $105 million to the Brazilian state of Ceara to help build an aquarium in its capital city of Fortaleza.
“An anticipated tourist attraction, the aquarium will boast four floors housing 25 large tanks containing approximately 15 million liters of water and showcasing 500 marine species and 35,000 individual specimens,” the Export-Import Bank said in a press release.
“The aquarium will also feature interactive exhibits, two 4D cinemas, one 3D cinema, and an educational platform dedicated to the research and preservation of aquatic life along the Brazilian coastal regions,” said the U.S.-government-controlled bank. “
The country needs to fail big time, like a massive economic collapse or lose a major war."
Probably both will happen. I'm serious and worried. Very, very serious and very, very worried. That uh, diverse "gathering" regarding housing paid for us and given to blacks is just a little taste of what were are going to get. I'm urging all readers here to be prepared.
That this guy is a circuit court judge is a joke:
Cole worked as a lawyer in private practice with the firm Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease in Columbus, Ohio from 1975 until 1978. He joined the U.S. Department of Justice and worked as a trial attorney in the commercial litigation branch of the DOJ's Civil Division from 1978 until 1980. He then transitioned back into private practice at Vorys Sater from 1980 until 1986. Cole became a U.S. Bankruptcy Judge for the Southern District of Ohio from 1987 until 1993. He returned to private practice in Columbus at Vorys Sater from 1993 until becoming an appeals court judge in 1995.
President Clinton nominated Cole to a seat on the Sixth Circuit on June 29, 1995, to replace retiring Judge Nathaniel R. Jones.

Explains the joke .....
You know, we tried to tell you what was happening in South Africa would explode in America once the white government was taken down here. Did you guys listen? No. The South African whites were hounded and laughed at by white Americans, who believed in holding hands and singing Kumbaya with their black brothers. We tried to tell you what the black man's culture was all about and that one day he would expose his true self. Blacks hate whites because they feel inferior on all levels compared to us. Pity American whites would rather commit racial suicide and appear we-are-one rather than to open their mouths and tell the truth about how they suffer at the hands of their black brothers. But, oh no - we can't have that! How racist would that be? Apparently it’s okay for blacks to be as racist as they want, just as long as whites aren't seen to be. That's how stupid we as a race are. We suffer from permanent guilt by white association. Well, America is now in one big heap of trouble. You have your next POTUS all lined up in Hilary Clinton, who is just as anti-white as any of her liberal buddies are. She will win and so the next 12 years at least you will be living under liberal anti-white anti-USA traitors intent on destroying America. Enjoy! I can't say I'm happy about it, but karma is a bitch hey? South Africa lies in ruins and no one came to our assistance in our time of need. Not one of you Americans opened your big mouths and stood up for us whites. And now you guys are going to follow the same path as us, down the googler you go, never to have a say in your country again, whilst the blacks and Hispanics replace your world and change it back to one they know – a third-world slum. Sure, just as in SA there will be white pockets here and there, but when you have these people running the country there is nowhere to hide. Obama has been your kiss of death and Pandora’s minority box has been opened. Welcome to our hell.
If Toure had a child that needed major surgery, if given the choice between a black doctor or a white doctor, whom would he choose?
I know who I'd pick.
They're only 12% of the population, how much representation do they want? Most Latin American countries have an over-representation of white in their elite, they don't seem apologetic about it.
Most of America LIKES AA. Let's face it, Black men and women are very popular in the media, and among media consumers.
Oprah is a billionaire by being every White woman's imaginary Black Best Friend, offering "wise Black woman" advice on life, love, and losing weight. [Because no one is skinnier than Black women.]
Obama is the model for every President who will come after: a Black messiah designed to take us to the promised land erasing White original sin.
The professional sports leagues are filled with Black guys, who are fawned over and made over. Reality TV includes such fare as "Ice Loves Coco" about Ice-T and his Blonde Wife (who has an amazingly big ass) or the Kardashians all married/dating Black athletes or rappers, or some woman named Kendra, etc.
America by and large just can't get enough of Blacks. People just want more and more Blacks. They do.
And I say they get it, good and hard. Let's demand that Harvard admit fully 90% of its next class as BLACK! Let's make the entire Supreme Court BLACK! Lets make Yale ALL BLACK! Let's have everything, everywhere, from Boeing to the military to every Fortune 500 company ALL BLACK ALL THE TIME.
Let's have Apple be ALL BLACK. Fire Tim Cook, hire say, Flavor Flav as the new CEO. Hire every Black guy who used Twitter to design the new Ipads and Iphones. Let's make INTEL all BLACK! And Google! And Microsoft! Replace Ballmer with say, Michael Vick. Vick's not doing anything anyway. [And he'd not do a worse job either.]
Make em choke on "Black for everyone" ... instead of "Black for thee but not for me."
It bears repeating that the normal, everyday, ordinary America is just dead. What is the new normal, the majority, is feminists, Blacks, Hispanics, gays, lesbians, various hard left freak-shows, weirdos, and other fringe folk who are now the CENTER. The new Majority. The "normal" ones and we who remember and knew the ordinary America before say, 2000 AD, are considered weird and freaky and fringe characters.
So I expect the Supremes to double down and issue an All-Black ruling demanding AA for everything to make certain Black people are everywhere in the leadership position.
"Entire Leadership of America Would Become Entirely White"
Given how much of the white leadership in this country actively promotes BRA--what difference does it make?

Some of us did stand up. But we were against a massive agitprop machine. Still, I understand where you are coming from. The level of delusion in the Western world today is incredible.
"Liberalism is the ideology of Western suicide." -- James Burnham
"how much representation do they want" - 100% might be a good starting point.

It's always black people that judge non-black people by the color of their skin when sizing up their victims.
The Government US DoJ has already said that there's no such thing as a "hate crime" that DoJ sees fit to investigate or prosecute if a white person is attacked based on the criminal's racist hate of white people.
Make no mistake, caucasians are de facto second-class $#!+1zens in our own country, by official government policy.

Cynical rich white racist progressives impute that blacks are like normal people.
For money.
Blacks are government-people, a tool that can be used by government to subjugate the taxpayers.
What other purpose do they serve?
December 9, 2012 5:11 PM
Toure is the perfect example of a little weasly liberal. He is an effeminate black probably on the down low. He argues from a place of emotion and never a place of fact or logic.
We always laugh at dropping our DWL off in down town Detriot think Toure would fair any better? He is a psudolectual who knows he has reached his position because he is a non-threatening black with a few extra IQ points.
Affermative Action should be a source of embarrassment just like EBT. Blacks with their over inflated egos and sense of self worth are immune to embarrassment do not expect any of them to turn away a free hand out.

Look back 100 years ago when Englishmen were fighting the Boers in your own country.
Look at the glorious achievements of the Gatling Gun and the 2-Pounder and the Hotchkiss 37MM.

Blackrobed mullahs at work.
Here's an even sicker joke: Alcee Hastings.
Hastings was so brazenly corrupt that as a Federal blackrobe he ended up being impeached and removed from office by congress - one of only 4 or 5 blackrobes in history to receive this honor. You know where is is now? Serving as a Representative from Florida in the US House of Representatives. So rottenly corrupt they actually had to impeach and convict (conviction is done by the Senate), but he can still be 'erected' from a stinking groid district - one of the ones with more "voters" than residents no doubt.
"They're only 12% of the population,
Been hearing that same ole number since the late 60s! I guess the cockroaches don't reproduce. Any trip to a big city would put that statement to the lie test.

Yes, you did. So have people here for decades running. That's what so damned frustrating. Whites refuse to believe their lying eyes. However, before you throw stones at us, why is it that an apparent majority of the 3 million or so whites remaining there in hell continue to support a regime which has targeted them for extermination?
This is not to throw stones at the whites in SA who can see, but to ask what is it in the psyche of whites which makes them so willing to continue to dig their own graves despite the mountain of evidence staring them in the face? During an exchange with a SA expat in the EUSSR who used to run a blog called South Africa Sucks, he told of the SA equivalent of the DHS and FBI counter-terror unit who stormed his home on a false accusation (made by a fellow white). 14 of the 28 jackboots were whites, including all commanders.
Why is this so? Why are whites still paying taxes and obeying laws (yes I know about the prison rapes too)? All 14 of those white officers are traitors. and deserve the only just penalty for their treason, as do any and all whites who support the regime. All are morally legitimate targets for any action - non-violent or violent. This include all police, magistrates, lawyers, media, academics, clerics, etc. Added to the true believers listed above are many more whites who continue to act as if the regime there is somehow legitimate - so they just keep on digging while the squids who own the place laugh and the ANC sharpens its tools for the great day.
Why, despite nearly 4000 of the most horrific type of murders at the hands of blacks, do white farmers there continue to hire blacks as farm workers when there are squatter camps filled with unemployed whites? That cheap-labor gene just never goes away, even when the bargain basement blacks end up killing and raping their employers more often than not.
Apropos of the TNB blackrobe appointed by Beelzebubba, I wonder how many Repuke senators voted to rubber-stamp the nominee?
One hell of an "opposition" party, no? The Nazis faced considerably more opposition even from the French in 1940. Vichy Republicans.
I'm glad Germany, South Korea, Russia, China and other countries practice affirmative action that way we'll always be number 1!
Toure is using the Zimmerman method and transforming Asians and "Hispanics" into whites.

The problem with Amerika, is simply Amerikans have been fed a steady diet of bullshit Politically Correct drivel, for going on four decades now.
The narrative goes like this: White people are guilty by association for all real or percieved crimes of the past. White men are inferior athletically and aren't hip or cool. White people are stodgy and oppressive by nature and deserve to lose their place in this nations class hierarchy.
These memes and many others are constantly reinforced via the media in this country.
Amerikans, having had their minds dumbed by the constant barrage, seem to have conceded their place in history to every other monority group in existence.
Much as you allude to letting the vandals have the keys to the kingdom, I would say they already have them. That is why we are starting to look more like Brazil and the Mexican maquiladoras every day.
We will be relegated to third world status to probably never regain first world prominence ever again. The handwriting is on the Internet people.

It's the difference between BRA and ABRA, the difference between NYC and Detroit.
Dissident: These memes and many others are constantly reinforced via the media in this country.
A question: when harassment and bullying via Internet is shamed and even prosecuted when it drives teens to suicide, why isn't racial harassment and bullying via school curricula, college admissions and job hiring a crime we can prosecute against BRA?
The fact that the black US government shut down NASA shows the nature of the black race. Inept, decrepit, stupid, goalless, malingerers they are. Whites must take charge of their lives and destinies or we and our posterity will perish.

Show me the line in the Constitution that says "all citizens are guaranteed equal access to the tools of political change."
Show me the line. Quote it, please. I dare you. The Founders did not use such language. Only Marxist judges do. This is Judicial Abuse.

There are also white liberals in SA who believe everything will be okay. Then there are those who can't leave because they're elderly or don't have qualifications to leave. Or can't leave because of family. Whites are now their third in number racially after blacks and coloureds (mixed-race). Their numbers have reduced dramatically through murder or fleeing the country. Farmers are stuck with hiring blacks or coloreds due to lots of factors. Most of their colored workers are fine - it's the blacks who are the problem. And most of the farm attacks are done by roaming blacks looking to murder them as part of their 'struggle'. It's all ANC backed.
Toure is fast becoming our best reason to hate Diversity.

I owe BRA nothing and never will no matter how much they bitch and moan about AA and their racist rants against their superior betters.
