• Even though blacks serve at the highest levels in all facets of American life, in both the private and public sectors — although those who dare to espouse conservative values are belittled as “Uncle Toms” — and are themselves in positions of power and therefore able to effect changes in hiring practices.
The American Spectator : Racial Warfare
How long is it supposed to go on like this?
Two months ago, President Obama declared again, that the War on Terror is over. As if the side under attack can simply decide that the hostilities are ended just because they are tired of defending themselves. Of course for those of us who live in the real world, which is populated not only by Obama’s liberal base, but also by hordes of blood-thirsty Islamists bent on killing us all, we know that war will only end when both sides agree to some kind of peace.
But there’s one conflict that will truly never end, or more precisely, will never be allowed to end: the perceived war of American racism. In this conflict even though, for all intents and purposes, a kind of peace was reached years ago through constitutional amendments and numerous legislative acts, the battle rages in the hearts and minds of too many Americans. And although innate prejudices cannot be legislated away, I think it’s safe to say that the hopes and dreams of the civil rights pioneers of the 1950s and 1960s have been met and some would say, wildly surpassed. But there are others whose thirst for revenge and reparation will never be satisfied:
• Even though the practice of affirmative action in the workplace and college campuses has tipped the scales so far in favor of minorities, that whites are now filing and winning lawsuits contending that they are being discriminated against because of race.
