Our First "Affirmative Action" President

Our first Affirmative Action President! (It had to happen)

by H. Peter Metzger

Affirmative Action! That's the name of the flagship program of modern Liberalism. It is the process by which minorities can enter many jobs and collect many diplomas, while being held to far easier standards than are non-minorities. The claimed reason for this is to make amends to minorities for having been discriminated against in the distant past.There are two reasons why this is wrong:

In the first place, it makes no sense. For every black taken into Harvard, Yale or Princeton under Affirmative Action, it is inescapable that some deserving white applicant is rejected. Thus, the black is rewarded for an injustice done not to him, but to his ancestors, while the innocent white pays the penalty today for something his ancestors may or may not have done. Thus, this mechanism is based upon the evil idea that justice is a commodity which can be transferred between all people and all ages as if it was an item on a grocery list.

Secondly, and far worse, is that Affirmative Action degrades the very standards of the jobs themselves since everybody knows that most minority job-holders did not get where they got solely based upon merit. Thus, Affirmative Action is a true evil in that it charms and then harms, everybody.

Now Affirmative Action has been in place for long enough so that it's effects on America can be seen. For example, it has become understandable for people to react negatively when they find themselves being treated by a black Physician. In that case, positive action can be taken without guilt because one's health is involved. People simply change doctors.

But when the job isn't so personal, people just shut down and let the mob rule. It was once a source of pride to become the Mayor of a large city. No longer. So whites don't care that most of the mayors of most of the big cities in America are blacks; they just move away. Sometimes those mayors are simply "empty suits", like David Dinkins of New York City, but most of the time, black mayors are thugs at best. Nobody cares.

How is it that no one seems to have noticed that the same lack of caring that characterizes the choosing of a Mayor has finally taken over the process of choosing the next President of the United States?

Much like David Dinkins, Barack Obama is an "empty suit" and is today, the highest ranking and most logical and ultimate extension of Affirmative Action. His "suit" is hung with diplomas and offices which he could never have attained had he not been a black, riding in on the horse of Affirmative Action.

But his "suit" is empty. Even so, he's now sliding towards the Presidency on a smile and a shoe shine, devoid of all content. Lost without his Teleprompter, his positions are made up of trite old platitudes, utterly unsuited to the terrible problems faced by America today. It is no exaggeration to say that to make Barrack Hussein Obama our Commander in Chief, would spell national disaster. The Presidency is not a Mayoral race, something that can be thrown behind just to keep the wolves at bay. We can't simply leave the city this time. If Obama becomes the next President, we will have nowhere left to go.
