Racial Quota Scandal at Obama Justice Department
by Tom FittonJudicial Watch uncovered hundreds of documents from the City of Dayton, Ohio, showing that Department of Justice (DOJ) officials pressured the Dayton Police and Fire Departments to lower testing standards because not enough African-American candidates passed the written exam. On May 25, Judicial Watch also filed a lawsuit against the DOJ to obtain additional records related to the Dayton program after the DOJ failed to respond to a Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 11-971)).
Here’s how messed up the situation has gotten at the Obama DOJ when it comes to racial discrimination. As you may recall, the DOJ abandoned its own lawsuit against members of the radical New Black Panther Party who threatened and intimidated white voters on Election Day 2008. (The leftist NAACP appears to have helped call the shots on the case dismissal.)
And now these new documents detail a scheme by DOJ officials to bully the City of Dayton, Ohio, into lowering testing standards for firefighter and police recruits because minority candidates did not perform well enough on the written exam. (One of the most shocking claims by the DOJ is that it’s not all that important for firefighters to be able to read and write!)
This “racial quota” scheme, while clearly shameless in its intent, also seems to violate laws against discrimination and Supreme Court precedent.
On June 29, 2009, the Supreme Court ruled that city officials in New Haven, Connecticut, violated the rights of white firefighters when they discarded the results of a promotions test because minority firefighters performed poorly on the test. “The city rejected the test results solely because the higher scoring candidates were white,” Justice Anthony M. Kennedy wrote for the majority. (Ricci et al. v. DeStefano et al. (No. 07–1428)).
But that didn’t stop the Obama DOJ.
The documents obtained from Dayton by Judicial Watch include the City’s standards and test materials for police and firefighter candidates produced by Fire & Police Selection, Inc., a company with a 15-year track record of designing and validating tests used to recruit police officers and firefighters.
The documents also include correspondence between the City of Dayton and the DOJ as DOJ officials conducted their analysis of the Dayton recruitment and testing program. (A “Consent Decree” was signed by both parties to resolve a discrimination lawsuit filed by the DOJ against the City of Dayton which mandated the analysis.)
The City of Dayton submitted ahead of time its detailed recruitment and testing plans (including its written examination) per the request of the DOJ. Dayton also took steps to focus its recruitment strategy on “minority – African-Americans, Hispanic, Asian, Females and other underrepresented minority groups.” These plans apparently did not elicit any significant objection from the DOJ until the tests had been administered and scores were calculated.
According to an internal assessment by Fire & Police Selection, Inc., “An exhaustive item-level analysis was conducted on the data from the administration and our statisticians did not identify any significantly problematic items that negatively affected the reliability of the test.” But after reviewing the test results, the DOJ registered its objections.
In a letter dated February 7, 2011, DOJ Senior Attorney Barbara Thawley informed the City of Dayton the DOJ rejected the written portion of the Dayton examination: “The United States has determined that the City’s proposed use of the written examination violates…the Civil Rights Act of 1964…because it has a statistically significant disparate impact upon African-American candidates…” The letter closed by threatening court action. A subsequent letter on February 17, 2011, suggests the written exam be used as a “pass-fail” screening device, which the DOJ described as a “compromise.”
The DOJ also objected to the use of a written test in general for firefighter applicants. “With regard to the writing portion for firefighter, it seems unusual to me. I have never seen a fire department give a writing test to entry level firefighter applicants. From what I know about the job, it seems very unlikely that an entry level firefighter would have to do much writing,” wrote Ms. Thawley. “All of our firefighters are either EMT or paramedics and do a lot of report writing,” responded Giselle S. Johnson, Secretary and Chief Examiner, Civil Service Board.
On February 18, 2011, Fire & Police Selection, Inc. CEO Dan Biddle issued a sharp rebuttal to the government’s claims regarding its test.
…we are appalled to learn that the DOJ has branded our tests as “invalid,” despite having been appraised [sic.] openly in advance of our validation steps, methods, and resulting data, and despite having never raised a single concern over the process during the entire seven month-period prior to the exam administration…Click here.
…Only at this point, two months after the exams were given, has the DOJ made any assertion about the unfairness or impropriety of the selection exam, much less that the tests are not valid. This complete reversal and flip-flop of judgment contradicts DOJ’s position prior to test administration, i.e. that the test was valid. Given that the only new information introduced after test administration was test scores and passing rates by race, it is not a difficult leap to conclude that the DOJ’s decision to contradict their prior position is drive solely by test scores and passing rates by race…In fact, it is illegal and in direct violation of Title VII and the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. Click here.
…It is our opinion that throwing out the exam results will inevitably lend to less qualified candidates taking the place of qualified candidates. We therefore recommend that the DOJ concedes with the City’s decision to move forward with the exam results, selecting one of three available cutoffs that align with the minimum competency levels established by the validation study. Click here.
According to a report by Dayton’s ABC News affiliate on March 11, 2011, the ultimate compromise struck between the City of Dayton and the DOJ resulted in a lowering of test standards for Police Department candidates:
The Dayton Police Department is lowering its testing standards for recruits. It’s a move required by the U.S. Department of Justice after it says not enough African-Americans passed the exam. Dayton is in desperate need of officers to replace dozens of retirees. The hiring process was postponed for months because the D.O.J. rejected the original scores provided by the Dayton Civil Service Board, which administers the test.
Under the previous requirements, candidates had to get a 66% on part one of the exam and a 72% on part two. The D.O.J. approved new scoring policy only requires potential police officers to get a 58% and a 63%. That’s the equivalent of an ‘F’ and a ‘D’.
One would be hard pressed to find a more egregious example of the unlawful application of race-based quotas. These documents show the City of Dayton bent over backward to accommodate the DOJ’s ridiculous demands. But the racialists at the Holder Justice Department did not care a whit about the testing process; they cared only about the results and race quotas.
Now the DOJ has cut standards and gamed the system to give critical first responder jobs to less qualified candidates. This puts the public safety at risk. And, as is typical, this Justice Department can’t be bothered to comply with basic FOIA law and tell the American people exactly what it is up to.

Under "You Lie!" hussein and his imbecile AG (and Black Panther Party supporter and defender) holder, the Department of IN-Justice has become a sham of a joke of a travesty of a parody of a farce of a law-respecting and law-enforcing organization. It's time for the total failure, racist, incompetent joke and disgrace to America known as “holder” to be fired. And, if the DOJ continues to not do the proper job, IT MUST BE DE-FUNDED.
Affirmative action is nothing more than discrimination based on race, gender, economic background, etc….
In a society based on real equality, only the persons real, demonstrable qualifications should be considered.
On a side note – how are entry level firefighters going to be trained and advance their skills and knowledge IF THEY CANNOT READ??
So when the progressive social mores and the progressive education system, fail these applicants, all involved are further insulted by the DOJ, by being called stupid and unteachable or racist and conservative. Our tax dollars at work.
The soft bigotry of low expectations raises it's ugly head again. Always from the left, always caused by "affirmative action".
Holder MUST be removed and prosecuted. If certain Americans cannot measure up then TOUGH SH!T. What a bunch of losers. Try studying rather than crying like pampered babies. Hasn't it been shoved down conservative America's throat again and again on how the left and democrat party is overflowing with superior intellect?
Holder's Injustice Dept using the "Civil Rights Act" of 1964 is deplorable and minorities should be the ones screaming on this one. DoJ's usurpation of power has gone wrong and this "Social Justice" must cease. Wonder if SCOTUS will step in on this one or COTUS …never have I seen all branches of gov't made so irrelevant by such a Treasonous President – Barack Hussein Obama, son of Lucifer.
“With regard to the writing portion for firefighter, it seems unusual to me. I have never seen a fire department give a writing test to entry level firefighter applicants. From what I know about the job, it seems very unlikely that an entry level firefighter would have to do much writing,” wrote Ms. Thawley."
Are you frigging kidding me? This woman and this DOJ are DERANGED.
But there are so many instances like this with holder's DOJ, they should be continually parked in front of congressional investigators.
DOJ says whites haven't suffered enough yet, so when the fire department is" late" to your home, because no one can read the road signs, you just keep that in mind,you conservative Christian, capitalist, socially backward, tax-paying WHITEY @#@#@#@…well you get the idea.
This is unfair to those who score below a 58%. Where's the equality in that?!
/sarcasm
Ethically, intellectually, this idea (plan) from Obama/Holder to lower test scores in order to accommodate unqualified applicants (to falsify them as qualified when they are not, based upon race, in this case, Blacks to be falsely qualified) goes along with the same cryptic, faulty reasoning by Obama's Supreme Court nominees, Sotomayor and Kagan, who claim that the Constitution "should be changed to accommodate changes in culture"…it is a symptom of anti-Americanism and tribal loyalty or ethnic/racial loyalty at the expense of our nation's very principles (Constitution).
It appears to me to be a case of less qualified if not NON qualified "failures" simply rewriting what the qualifications are in order to move themselves along by way of their race/ethnicity only. I've never seen such clear cases of racism by any in government before as I'm seeing from Obama and his various 'people' he's "surrounded (himself) with".
Color doesn't determine the test score.
Application of knowledge does.
Maybe it is time for Holder and "his people" to see that a majority of the minority is smart enough to stay away from the corruption that has become "law enforcement". Those who are fully smart enough to "pass the test" are also fully smart enough to know better than to be used as pawns.
The only real reason white people are filling those spots is because there are more of them and that means there are more who are smart enough to pass tests but not quite smart enough to realize that they are being used as pawns.
Don't get me wrong, I want cops and firefighters, I even want to pay taxes to fund both activities and the people who want to engage in those noble professions. However, I am sick to death of the corruption and the garbage just like this.
Note: The NAACP sis the same thing, via lawsuit, here in the capital of Illinois and test score allowances were "lowered". The fact of the matter is that this is today's most abhorrent racism.
The answer here is to remove the corruption, and part of that is blaming a test score on a color of a persons skin. It is, frankly, ridiculous and were I a minority, it would make me madder than just about anything else. It amounts to calling anyone but white – stupid. That is far from true and has to be called out as the foolishness that it is.
As to Obama, and Holder, among most associated with the Obama Administration, their bigotry is NOT "soft", it's hardcore.
Eric Holder is an enemy of the United States of America…as is his messiah!

The Chairman O Regime needs illiterate cops and firefighters because their union dues will help pay his campaign bills.
Why have doctors that can read or scientists that can do math or librarians that understand the Dewey decimal system so long as they all vote one way?
The ugly truth is that an ignorant and illiterate society is much more easily ruled by dictatorial tyrants.
The city of Detroit is a very sad example of how this has been done there, more than half of the city's residents cannot read or write and the Mayor himself has publicly admitted he is an illiterate.
Detroit is a socio-economic nightmare because the progressives need it to be so they can use those illiterates as a private army to do their dirty work when they spark their little red revolution.
Obama and Holder are Racists.
The Obama and Holder plan is to make all Whites suffer in the United States of America…. by any and all means necessary.
The hatred of Whites by Obama and Holder is epic.
Obama IN-Justice Dept…seditious radicals…
If you ask me, the entire staff involved with the illiterate-infested Department of IN-Justice is a prime example of the results from NOT requiring an exam before employment……
They're all a bunch of anti-American morons…….
They have the audacity to call the white person racist? Reverse discrimination is what Holder and his gang are all about and the people of Dayton will have to pay for it maybe with their lives in a crisis. Unfortunately the Injustice dept. will all get a pass for this unless someone with a spine steps up and calls them out on it. Even then, with the traitor-in-chief in power, the only thing that will happen is a beer summit. Or maybe a golf summit. Or a fried chicken summit.
If those people can't read or write to pass an exam, you bet your bottom dollar that they can't probably move their sorry a$$ if there is a fire. "Hey, ya think we outta go on that call? I ain't finished my chili dog yet"
I truly believe that racism against (conservative) Whites today–while not as violent as the anti-Black racism of the pre 1960s–is far more institutionalized among the Federal Government, the media, academia, and the entire ruling class.
Stupid and dumb does not care what color you are…0bumble is living proof of it.
No matter the issue, the DOJ et al would rather exploit it rather than do something about it. It is all about Obama and his grip on power. The media is disgustingly biased in their reporting to where they've gone to helping coverup the lies, distortions and creating chaos. Many Thanks goes to Judicial Watch for exposing these wrongs and for keeping the American people informed.
Un-Dam believable, I have been in Law Enforcement for over 25 years. I remember studying my butt off for Sargent exams only to lose out to black officers who never studied a lick. “I don’t need to study, I’m black, they have to give me the job”. Well that is what I put up with all this time, if I said anything I was classified as a racist and told to keep my mouth shut. I retired now; I am just so disgusted at this crap. God, please bless the poor ignorant politicians.
Sucks when the biggest violaters of justice is the US DOJ.
I'll bet a there will be a slew of those surrounding the poser that will go to jail ofter the regime changes hands.
Why not get rid of the back ground checks and waive the clause for convicted felons.
Social justice movement. The illiterate need the same rights as those that went to school.
Or worse…..

What for you be flappin your lips? …homey. Fireman don’t need no reading or written, and damn man, no pig don’t either…sit.
Rule of Law means nothing to the Department of Justice.
No wonder things are so screwed up.
The reality in all this crap from DOJ is a direct reflection of the incompetence being practiced by the DOJ, as obviously the skill and knowledge of the DOJ leadership is also inferior, likely well below the 60% range.
But we mustn't let the equal protection of the 14th amendment get in the way of the social justice of the Obama administration.
Would this also apply to doctors and nurses. Is the ability to read REALLY necessary? I am certain that there is disparity in these professions also. SARC
Wouldn't you need to read road signs in the fire department?
Well, I guess the DOJ follows the logic that. one doesn't have to know how to read to become mayor of a city (Philly was it? If not, I apologise to Phillians.) or to become a top school administrator (Detroit?)
You know, I feel for the black officers who passed the test as it was. They will always be looked upon as not worthy. Sad, really.
There's more Bull Connor in Holder than Martin Luther King.
The man's a stone cold racist.
Not about who's the best candidate it's about who's not white.
Gee – the most racist president to be elected since Wilson is Barak Hussein Obama. Show of hands: Who besides me saw this one coming?
We have never held inquiries or hearings after an administration has been ousted in this country. The Marxist's administration should be the exception. We need to prosecute some of these people.
Communists were open about what they planned to do, and they have done just what they said they would do. They have infiltrated everything from art to mathematics making them all meaningless. They have infiltrated everything from schools to civil service and the unions that own them.
Americans had better wake up and start defending freedom before it is too late to do so. We still have a chance, but there is no more waiting for someone else to do it.
Also, due to Obama's malfeasance to crash the economy and the resulting lack of jobs, there are literally thousands of highly educated people willing to work as Policemen and Firefighters and consequently those who apply will achieve higher test scores. Making these jobs available for the best qualified applicant is the sole basis of the test – nothing to do whatsoever with skin color. Period. I agree, this is more blatant corruption by the Holder DOJ.
Nothing will be done, we know what is going on but nothing will be done to fix it. It is wrong.
If you have to lower the threshold of test scores to get certain people qualified THEN THEY ARE NOT QUALIFIED FOR THE FREAKING JOB! Their skin color does not make one difference in that regard!
And why not? American voters "cut standards" to elect the first Affirmative Action hire as president. That's certainly put "public safety at risk" as well.
As The Callow Youth Who Would Be King once said, "elections have consequences." How do you like the consequences now, America?
President Obama and his left wing allies are back to accusing AFP and our 1.2 million grassroots activists of being a "foreign-controlled corporation" or a front for "big banks" or "big oil". AFP reveals the special interest behind Obama's agenda and how our network of activists are working to combat it.

Add this racism against all Americans to the ATF's "Fast and Furious – Guns for Mexico Drug Cartels" scandal and the time for Holder to go is long overdue. Grow some 'nads Republicans and go after this idiot with everything you have. The American people will thank you for it. Calling out a racist idiot is not racist. Holding these criminals accoutable for encouraging gun dealers to sell guns to known gun smugglers and arming the drug cartels is the least you can do. If the MSM was worth anything at all they'd ask Obama and Holder the hard questions about both. Unfortunately they are willing accomplices by burying both stories. Grow some 'nads Repubicans and hold these derelicts to the rule of law. For once do the Peoples' business.
The DOJ has to catch up to the institutionalized ineptitude passed on by the Government Public Schools. Now that the schools have guaranteed graduations, regardless of ones ability to read or write, the government drones must be coddled because of their "taught infirmity," and all discriminatory private sector barriers to ignorance and illiteracy must be turned into Federal Certificates of Competency.

Yes, you're right. And with all that has gone on since the beginning of Obama's reign-of-terror and that of the Ministry of Truth, some people simply become apathetic — not counting all those who continue to bury their head in the sand (the clueless). I, myself, am no longer "shocked" by what this administration does, or its bootlickers in congress. It's like I'm in a perpetual numbness of sorts. There is one thing I do know. Thanks to Obama, this country is in a free fall and we're headed on a direct collision course. It won't be pretty. Prepare, prepare, prepare accordingly.
Unintended consequences of affirmative action= Race hatred…….simply put, a qualified individual who doesn't enjoy minority status is passed over for a minority who is patently UNQUALIFIED…this is wrong on every level.
My understanding is that caucasians in this country are fast approaching minority status….does that mean we should have preference over blacks/hispanics/asians?
Ebonics for Whitey…..
I wonder if Holder or Obama or any progressive would choose to have open-heart surgery by an EEOC/Affirmative Action surgeon. I think not!
The sooner these racists and incompetent Democrats are run out of Washington the better. 2012 elections can't come soon enough. Hopefully when Obama goes down he takes the Democrat Party with him.
There are two standards of justice in this country. One for the supporters of the regime and another for the opposition or the non-entities. The DOJ seems perfectly fine with this.
However, BE WARNED! Comes 2013, and there is a new Republican administration in office, expect investigations of the Holder Department of Justice. A Special Prosecutor may even be appointed to bring those in charge to the bar of justice.
ENFORCE THE LAW FAIRLY. Social Justice or Reparations or Getting Even are not consistent with EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER THE LAW.
Here's an idea, every one of those candidates that took and failed the written test should be allowed to be Obama and Holders personal fire-fighters.
It's patently obvious that Holder and Obama are racists and are involved in discrimination at a Federal level. What I want to know is who with an R after their name will have the cojones to prosecute them once they are out of offfice? Everyone is so afraid of being called a racist that these folks are getting away with murder. We've got an affirmative action President who has proven that he is unqualified and incapable of being the POTUS. We know the only reason Obama got a Harvard education is the quantity of melanin in his skin, that's why they won't release his college records. This is RACISM pure and simple, and not the phony racism the left screams about but the real deal. So what are the Repubs going to do about this?
That should make you feel real safe ?
Having stupid protect you…
So remember that it’s not all that important for firefighters to be able to read and write!
Sooooo, if you can't read and write what makes you think they will get from point A to point B ?
Someone more qualified than them to be used as a Taxi service ?
I would like to know if the Obama administration is intent on letting people into the police and fire departments with a D and an F grade, why on earth is he spending more money on education to get people trained for manufacturing jobs? Just give them a test that he says they can pass with a D and an F and give them the manufacturing job and leave it at that.
This is a "D" and "F"…ing joke!!!
What ever happened to public safety first !
Do the cops in africa know how to read/write and look at how safe that country is ?
Wake up, he wants every cracker dead or picking cotton
I suggest people start counting the 12,000 staff under obama and how many are non white ?
I guess dey don learn 'em so good down on da plantation. Yassuh, the Boss man Obama bin saying we is goin' to be gettin' da white man's jobs fo' sho' cuz we be black 'n all and it be time for da reprations.. Who need all dat schooling' and sh1t, anyway?
You mean that when he said, "my kind of people" will not be prosecuted, he meant negros? Who wudda thunk? I thought Holder was an American. I was wrong. He judges people by the color of their skin, not by their crimes against other Americans, and certainly he does not judge "his people" by the content of their character. You need character to do that, and this regime has no character whatsoever.
Obama and his administration continue to do as he pleases with absolutely no regard for the law,we now have a lawless president who is bent on destroying this nation.
Hell, lets make them their doctors….
Affirmative Action is institutionalized racism; one would imagine that others would find it offensive that the official position of a government office is essentially such that, 'ethic minorities are inherently incapable of meeting expectations of the average Caucasian and, thusly, must be held to lower standards.'
We have been living in a bizarro-world twilight zone since 2008 – I hope we can wake the hell up from this horrid nightmare by 2012
Lower standards for Fire Fighters
Lower standards for Police
Lower standards for borrowing
Anyone else see where this is going?
Just a little tip for those that live in the Dayton, OH area. Don't expect to get good first responders when you need them. Bad news for the rest of America too. This mediocrity is coming to the emergency services near you.
Kidding she is not. Deranged? Absolutely.
Just for slaps and tickles, I spun up a search of the intertubes for the surrounding counties down here in Green Acres, Flownoverville U.S.A. Each and every one of the counties requires that applicants for the position of firefighter take a written Civil Service entrance exam.
As Homer might opine, Doh!
BTW, I wonder when the ghosts of Gunrunners past will reveal the complicit DOJ functionaries to be the murderous felons that they are? Once they are tried and convicted maybe those complicit DOJ/BATFE criminals can form a Acappella Department and pass their 20 to life terms singing this tune.
DOJ Claim: (One of the most shocking claims by the DOJ is that it’s not all that important for firefighters to be able to read and write!)
What college educated lawyer came up with this jewel. I guess he thinks that firefighters don't need how to read signs like EXIT or DANGER – HIGH VOLTAGE or DANGER – HIGH PRESSURE GAS.
Is there a list of the "racially biased" test questions? I've heard these tests are not very hard, so please post them so the country can see just how absurd it is for the DOJ to step in.
amat victoria curam – victory loves preparation
Welcome to the wonderful world of the darling and beguiling negro. It matters not who it is. It IS the way they are.
The negrofication of America. Ever expanding. Ever pernicious. Today's America, the new South Africa.
You are a "racist". You are filled with "hate". Me too.
I'm sure you're on board as are so many wonderfully negrocentric – fixated, eyes-wide-open white folk regarding the position that we must have another negro in the White House (more accurately, never again a white person) and that either Mssrs. Cain or West are the only two qualified, competent candidates on the supposedly conservative side. If not…….., gotta, just gotta have a negro.
In the meantime, like me, keep a low profile. Our perspective is again, so "racist".
http://motherjones.com/mojo/2011/05/herman-cains-...
Well…could be worse. LOL
The only racists left on the planet are black people.
We have enough evidence to nail Holder, Obama, and Napolitano to the wall several times over.
My question is – WHY THE HELL IS CONGRESS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT?
Try to stay on topic moron.
When is the government going to realize that handing black people free chit turns them into non-productive citizens? Either you qualify for the job or you don't.! What the hell does it have to do with skin color?
Eric Holder, your a scumbag, racist piece of sh*t who needs to have his a*s kicked and then be fired! Whites have been called racists our whole lives while you black racist skirt by with no problem, well we aren't as stupid as you think. We know you are just as racist as anyone and we can only take so much of your "poor me I'm black" bullsh*t! You people have hand fed blacks for way to long and look what it has done to our country. It has turned blacks into the "I'm owed something for nothing" crowd instead of turning them into the productive crowd for the good of America!
Does anyone else think it's unreasonable for tax payers to pay for a ^%$#@ exhaustive item-level analysis for a &^%$# test? Can we stop wasting tax payer dollars so certain races can get a job?
After reading this story, I think we better start listening to other countries when they accuse the American government of unbelievable, dirty tricks.
It's been clear for sometime that the Justice Department has been subverted towards political ends. This is the single most dangerous thing that can happen in America. It is the most important reason, surpassing even the extraordinarily failed economic policies, that this regime of Socialists thugs needs to be removed from office in this country and discredited.
No one wants to defend the Hutatree Militia in Michigan, but it's important to recognize that the Holder JOD moved against this group at the exact time the Tea Party was emerging. There was an attempt by these propgagandists to Tie the Tea Party to rightwing extremists, and the Hutatree were the scapegoats. These are people who are fringe, but who are being persecuted by Eric Holder for using anti-government rhetoric.
Of all the evil that Obama has done, Holder is the apex.
What is called “affirmative action” is one of the greatest of contemporary hoaxes of our time. It was first passed off as compensation for discrimination. Next re-branded with the term “diversity.” Well let's call it for what it really is, nothing less than official, government-mandated-discrimination-against-whites.
This is all about putting together the civilian army that "should be better funded and bigger than the Us Military". It is about nothing else.
Since this whole thing is to build up the regime's civilian army that is to be better funded and bigger than the military, according to Obama's campaign promises, your question makes sense and will happen (if not already in place in some urban cities.)
They will have their white slave doctors to do the surgery.
It is not about race and firefighting, it is about getting the civilian army in place that Obama promised when campaigning "civilian army …bigger and better funded than the miitary…"
Why doesn't Congress exercise their constitutional authority in so many areas? Hmmm… I think the vast majority of the Congress widgets might be… what's the word… ah yes, complicit in many of the transgressions perpetrated on the citizens and the Constitution of the Republic by the Federales… but that's just my W.A.G.
Are they covertly building their official Brown coat army?
For God sakes people why would a firefighter need to read street signs! And, why would police need to be able to read warrants or valuable information, let along, be able to read the info on drivers license…..
For God sakes votes these freaks out of office, so we can rid our country of these fools….this is the age of Obama! Votes em out!
Why not just repeal the civil rights act?
It's only use is "lottery" abuse and enriching lawyers.
Better be careful, Dayton. I don't believe that the Holbama Liberation Army has started their kinetic military action in Dayton, yet. Unlike Chicago, Boston, San Jose, Miami, Charlotte, and Rochester. You best be hirin da brothers!
PS: What kind of an AH actully WEARS his college ring. The WH should be called parvenus on parade. I know that Lincoln said that the Lord must love common people, he made so many of them, but do we need all of them in obama's administration, running the country?
This is nothing short of an insult to all the black Americans who studied hard, worked hard, and made something of themselves without complaining. They are treating it as if blacks are still widely discriminated against, and they are making it look like there are no successful blacks all over America. Just another example of liberals exploiting their base for political gain. Sad. Really sad that people fall for this crap.
Since AG Holder and his DOJ apparatchiks refuse to cooperate with Congress and be transparent in their actions, we must investigate each of them when they leave office and prosecute any criminal actions as required. Their abuse of power cannot go unchecked.
We had something very similar to this happen in Virginia Beach, VA. The Justice Department claimed that the math portion of the entrance exam for the Police Dept. was discrimatory against minorities. They came to this 'conclusion' because a higher percentage of blacks and latinos failed the test compared to whites. And we're talking basic math skills here. Well Virginia Beach caved under the pressure (bullying?) from the DOJ and lowered the score requirement on the math test. Basically, you can essentially get a failing grade now and still make it through. Not only that, but they had to allow 124 applicants that had previously failed, re-take the test. They also were required to PAY $1300 to each black and latino applicant who failed the test during a 3 year period. Here is a link, the VB part is further down article: http://www.examiner.com/crime-in-norfolk/justice-...
"“The United States has determined that the City’s proposed use of the written examination violates…the Civil Rights Act of 1964…because it has a statistically significant disparate impact upon African-American candidates…”"
Completely outrageous. This is a trans-Nixonian degree of contempt for the law; given the Supreme Court's explicit ruling the year before (to which DOJ was a party) this frankly amounts to at the very least contempy of court, if not an impeachable offense.
That would be the Affirmative Action doctors.
