During the first five months of this year, with the Senate under the control of its first African-American majority leader, [State Senator Malcolm] Smith, top Democrats bemoaned the lack of minority Senate staffers.
But instead of trying to recruit new hires, they fired nearly 200 almost exclusively white workers and replaced them with a large number of minority employees, many of whom were seen by their fellow workers to be unskilled at their new jobs.
The move produced severe racial tensions, made worse by the fact that, as a high-level Democratic staffer confided, “We’ve been told to only hire minorities.’
pot meet kettle… you’re all incompetent, so who are you to say they are not competent to do their job. If you weren’t all incapable of doing your job our budget wouldn’t look like it does.
Black, white, yellow, green (Go Cpt. Kirk!) if you suck, you suck. So even if they try to use competence or ability to do their job (to hide racism) you better be on solid ground before you point fingers.
