Shirley Sherrod has been named our nation's first Racial Equity Czar, a newly minted Cabinet position which gives her regulatory control over the Treasury Dept. No biggie.

(CNSNews.com) – The Obama administration is backing legislation that includes regulations requiring U.S. businesses to provide to the government data about employee pay as it relates to the sex, race and national origin of employees.

In an orchestrated effort that included a statement by President Barack Obama and an event at the White House featuring Vice President Joe Biden, Attorney General Eric Holder and Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, the president and his cabinet endorsed the Paycheck Fairness Act.

In a White House-issued press release, the “enhancement of enforcement” is described as “a pledge by the Department of Justice and other enforcement agencies will coordinate and collaborate through investigations, litigation, policy guidance, data analysis, and public education efforts to make meaningful progress in closing the wage gap,” the press release stated. 

“Already, the Justice Department, in conjunction with the EEOC and four of its district offices, has launched a robust and intensive pilot program to coordinate the investigation and litigation of charges against state and local government employers,” it added.

6 Laura Ingraham had a sound clip of MSDNC ignorant scrunt C*ntessa Brewer travelling even deeper into Retardville by whining "What do people want from Obama?"  I looked over at RoomTemp Air to see if Michelle's pet catamites had a clip of it but no luck.  Maybe we can get a thread for it because bashing that ditzy pinata is always easy hilarity.

This is the same kind of crap that they got added to CRA to make it easy for assholes like ACORN to sue. This is another extortionist lawyer bill that needs to go down the tubes.

We're probably fucked because Centerfold Boy and the Ugly Twins from Maine will jump on board.  Fortunately McVain is facing an election and has to pretend to be a conservative so that might keep Lady Lindsey from making it a fucking landslide.  Fuck that shit anyway on businesses providing that data; there is no scenario where anything good for the country can subsequently happen.

I haven't gone back and looked at who voted yes/no but it hasn't made it in 2007 - 2009 so maybe they haven't jumped on board.

Every reputable study that has ever been done has shown that if you account for all the factors that there is no "disparity" in salaries.

This POS is just another make work for lawyers bill and payback to all the perpetually offended groups.

All the Senators (and House members) with JDs should be recused from voting.

Short term - probably not. Long term - yes. You would not have a massive and expensive health care bill, horrible Financial Reform bill, and a boondoggle of a stimulus. McCain fails on a lot of conservative issues, but he at least is serious about the debt and deficiet

 

Follow up.

I agree with you on the healthcare issue, McCain would not have pushed that. But do you really think that McCain would not have pushed a stimulus bill or signed the FinReg Bill?

I think McCain would have signed any financial regulation bill given to him by congresss. I also think McCain is the type of politician who thinks it is better to be seen doing something than nothing and would have pushed for some sort of stimulus bill

Check the "Racism Video" threads from yesterday.

25 great news The Journolisters don't like Keith Olbermann either, finally something that unites us

26 Ben, the only difference between McCain and Obama is the angle of the slope. The direction would still be -y. Some sort of FinReg would still have been passed, probably some green energy bullshit, but I don't think Obamacare would have yet happened. Would Johnny Mc use the veto?

27 Does anyone here think our economy would be significantly better if John McCain had won, keeping in mind the fact that the Democrats controlled large majorities in both the House and the Senate?

I don't think you'd have such lousy unemployment if you didn't have the specter of New Racio-Communism^tm hanging over small businesses collective heads.  McCain is a pathetic pandering squish and he would have his own problems, but I don't think the business class would be scared of the radical shit we see going on with Commissar Barry and the Funky Bunch.

30 Hola! El Blogito bueno! Adios!

31

I haven't gone back and looked at who voted yes/no but it hasn't made it in 2007 - 2009 so maybe they haven't jumped on board.

Well, if Centerfold Boy decided to generate more headlines for himself by being a "maverick" that would cancel out the fat fuck who's currently roasting in Hell's vote.  The Maine harridans can't be trusted either.  I think our hopes lie more in the donkeycrats that are looking at their poll numbers and thinking WTF.  Hopefully assholes like Webb, who had an article in the WSJ on what a fucking crock the diversity bullshit is, will be frightened by the prospect of appearing to be a craven hypocrite, even to the shitheads who voted for him, if he'd vote for it.

 

32

I agree with much of the sentiment, however, I would be willing to bet if McCain won, unemployment would still be around 8.5 percent or higher. I think at best he wouldn't have impeded the recovery as much as Obama, but I also think he would have done a fair amount of damage in conjunction with the Democratic House and Senate. He definately would have passed a financial regulation bill, not to dissimilar to the one just passed. He talks about budgets a lot, but economics don't appear to be mccains strong point.

 

33 I fired TOTUS. Shirley Sherrod gets the gig now. She's practicing how to do cue cards.

34 McCain also would have pushed for the extension of the Bush tax cuts.

I would not have counted on that. He is the primary reason they were not permanent to begin with.  (other than the normal Dem obstruction)

35 McCain would be taking a world-class beating from the Progs and MFM. When was the last time you heard a whimper about Gitmo, Iraq, Aff- gan-ee-stahn? And unemployment? It would have been unbearable, maybe life-threatening. But he might not have stolen GM and Chrysler from their shareholders.

Posted by: Vic at July 23, 2010 09:49 AM (/jbAw)

Didn't he admit to having been wrong about that in the campaign (not that I'd believe anything that backstabbing fuck ever says but still......)?  I'm pretty sure he did.

37 Morning?  Have we had our conservative talking points meeting yet?  HuffPo said these meetings are a daily occurrence now.

38 McCain always said, during the campaign, he wanted to make them permanent.

Yeah, during the campaign he was running away from his record. I believe in following actions not rhetoric.

39

 doubt that with this Congress he would have gotten it, but he would have pushed because then, when the taxes went up, he could blame the Ds....and not blaming himself is always something Johnny Mac is good at.

that's my overall feeling. That even if McCain became the president and was the man we wanted him to be, that he wouldn't have been able to get anything through congress. Even if Arlen hadn't switched, the Dems still had 59 senators and a 230+ congressmen.

 

40 I wonder if there's somebody out there keeping track of all of the bills that need repealing. It's gonna be a long list...

I was thinking the same thing earlier.  It also ran through  my mind this scenario.  Being the lazy ass he is, and knowing his popularity will most likely continue to spiral down, Obama will not seek re-election in 2012.  In rides Hillary, who still has a great support network behind her.  She white horse's her way to the nomination, then wins in the general.  With people still not ready to give the keys to the WH back to the Repubs, Hillary wins.....hello veto and no chance of repealing these monstrosities.  Just a nagging thought.

41

That even if McCain became the president and was the man we wanted him to be, that he wouldn't have been able to get anything through congress.

 

But chances are we wouldn't be dealing with this other crap we have to suffer through with Obama: Endless vacations, pissing off our allies, racism at every turn, the "Victory Mosque," etc.

42 Customizable 'crib'. Just about choked on my morning Oreos.

43 What we really need is a congress that does nothing but repeal bills for the entire two year session.

44 I always think someone is going to photo shop a poster advocating term limits and have a "poster child" contest and McCan will be one of the contestants..

45 The glacier in pantsuits would veto any repeal of healthcare; the only thing Stalin-Rodham would allow would be minor tinkers to it to craft it closer to what she tried to help Slick pass in the 90s and got her fat ass kicked.  It would still be an economy wrecking clusterfuck.  Anybody thinking she'd be good for the country is too fucking stupid to argue with.

Best thing to happen to this country would be term limits.  That's why it'll never go through.

Having watched the "FULL" 43 minute version of the Shirely Sherrod video released by the NAACP (and edited at 21:00-23:03) I must say, Andy was actually wrong, it really was about reconciliation.  Though she admitted she couldn't deal with a white man who needed her help and sent him to a white lawyer who did nothing, in the end she did the right thing and helped save the white man's farm.  Though the white farmer and his wife appear quite intimidated by their inquistors from the media, they do say that she hepled them save his farm.  Though she put him off at first because he was white, which clearly was discrimination, in the end, it was a good result and we should be judged by our actions and their results rather than our personal prejudices.

It is obvious she was speaking from the heart and admitting she could not help him because of the resentment she harbored of all white people, but when it came down to it, she did help and he kept his farm.

Unless there is something more in the editing in the NAACP version, Brietbart's explaination to FOX was lame.  Andy is an essential part of the New Media and it is truly terrible that he has made this blunder and given the Liberal Leftist Media a real reason to discredit us all. 

Goddammit Andy, watch the whole fucking thing first before you jump the gun and get snookered by the NAACP!  WE NEED YOU TOO MUCH!

Primarily yesterday's Nightline/Breibart thread. I was delicately dressed down, something about Patriot Purists or some such nonsense. And that we did not have the intellectual honesty to admit we are wrong as it pertains to Sherrod but the Conservative MSM does.

FinReg is an interesting question. I suspect he would have pushed something along the line of limited FinReg that restricted the use of deravatives. Not the current boondaggle we have.

Posted by: Mallamutt

 

I wonder whether he would have the guts to deal with Fannie/Freddie Mac. That was and is still one of our biggest problems.

Would he have taken over Chyrsler and GM and screwed over the bondholders at the same time?

Would he be bowing to everyone on the planet?

Would he have assed around for over six months in Afghanistan?

Would he have pushed the Cash for clunkers and then houses?

Would he have gone out of his way to piss off the Brits, Poles, Canadians, Hondurans and Israelis?

 

50 I'm not around much.  As I recall though, people were saying there was a point in the tape where they felt something was left out.  Is the new tape that is out without that little "problem" or is it still there?  Is there stil the possibility that something is still missing from the tape?

51 Curious: The tape available today has something edited out around 21:00 minutes.

First, thanks for the bold type and the sickening blue background. It really brought out your eyes on that post.

Second, Unless you are ready to claim that a tape showing a white person (speaking to a romm full of other white persons) candidly talking actively screwing someone over on the basis of race, and later thinking better of it, would play well anywhere, (unless that person was Robert Byrd) your post was as overwrought as it was over 'colored'.

 

I hereby renounce myself for complaining about that post of Color.

53

Blue Hen, my original question was specifically on the economy. Clearly on every other issues, foreign policy, apology tour, etc he would have been better.

I just don't think he would be much different on the economy.

54 hahhahahha apparently, yesterday the red phone rang?   And some guy from Texas stopped the tivo to get the phone number off the phone when Beck held it up and wanted to warn Beck that if he got the number, so did everyone else.
Beck described the control room freaking out trying to patch the call in and saying "who is it?"  "who is it""

What Beck missed is the probable reaction at the WH....he didn't even think of that.  That red phone which he has been holding up now for at least a year saying "WH, call me, call me"...rang....if they were watching did they freak out too?  Did they think "who the heck is calling Beck?"  "Did they assume it was one of them?

We're in agreement. I think that this goes back to what Beck was saying at the time of the election. Some of what Obama has done might have still occurred, but in a slightly less noxious form, and have the impression of bi-partisanship.

57 Does anyone here think our economy would be significantly better if John McCain had won, keeping in mind the fact that the Democrats controlled large majorities in both the House and the Senate?

My take is that we'd be better off, but still in bad shape. I don't think McCain would have nationalized GM and Chrysler, nor would he have put so much effort into sucking off the unions.

Not sure anyone in D.C. understands the economy, or what government can -- and cannot -- do to keep it running smoothly.

We would not, however, have had a traitor in the White House who bows to terrorists and seels out our security to every tinhorn dictator that comes along.

We wouldn't have Eric Shabazz Holder, the Wise Latina or Kagan the Terrible.

Sarah Palin would be VP. Tens of thousands of slavering comments at Tepid Air would never have been written. Allahpundit would be begging on street corners and scouring job listings.

58 BLUE HEN:  Our actions and the results of our actions should be what we are judged on, not our inner demons.  Of course if positions were reversed a white man would be hounded out of town.  But that is beside the point.  Andy fucked up BIG TIME and it makes us all look bad.  He should admit that he didn't see the whole tape, and incidentally, ask for the rest of the tape that was edited out by the NAACP.  PS I really do have blue eyes, I'm glad you think it brings them out.  (Sura 2:29)

59 All the Senators (and House members) with JDs should be recused from voting.


I'm all for making the children of politicians ineligible for public office. For goodness' sake, no more dynasties. You gotta skip a generation.

And how about making candidates for Pres/VP/Senator resign their other elected positions (Rep/Gov/Sen etc) BEFORE THEY CAN RUN FOR HIGHER OFFICE.

Wishful thinking, I know.

60 I think they still don't know what happened with the financial system.  They put neal cash and carry in charge..not sure what he learned but he eneded up in a cabin in the woods with his GF for over a year and the boys at PIMPCO had to literally drag him out of there to hire him.

they need a team of forensic accountants and quants in there to figure out what occurred to make the liquidity dry up like that.

61 Even if Sherrod deserved to be fired for what she said in her speech and what she did decades ago while not a public servant, she also deserved some due process. If Breitbart released that tape to see if the WH and the rest of the Ebola Gang would shit their pants and do something stupid and rash, the answer is yes they would. Sherrod is a bigot, Ebola is an asshole, and Breitbart was sloppy or a genius, and all of these things can be true at the same time.

THe NAACP, who supposedly made the original tape, was the one that dumped her, not Breitbart. And our US government canned/ accepted her resignation, not Breitbart.

This does NOT make us all look bad, unless you allow yet another double standard to hold sway. You've already acknowledged the existence of one. That's enough for one day.

If Breitbart had had in his possession the full tape and had released that tape, the train of events could have been very different. Breitbart should have taken more time to investigate what he had in his hands.

eman Sherrod is a bigot, Ebola is an asshole, and Breitbart was sloppy or a genius, and all of these things can be true at the same time.

Yeah, but the result this time is really bad.  I don't watch enough Left Media to know how long they'll pound on this one, but they got Andy this time for real!  Anyone who watches the NAACP edited version will find themselves in great sympathy for Shirley, who admitted she couldn't deal with a white guy, but did the right thing in the end.

If they play this to the hilt it could really hurt the New Media.  Andy was sloppy and if fair minded people see all of this, it may turn them off in droves, or it may give them another reason to capitulate to the Jackbooted-IronFisted-Left. 

I trust the American people to be fair minded, and therefore this bodes badly for the New Media, and for Andy who has now been branded a "Right Wing Provacateur"  This is not good ... Only time will tell. 

 

67 @74 Heh.

Blue Hen -This does NOT make us all look bad,

Andy messed up and if they play this one hard enough they could really make him look bad, and the rest of the New Media too.  Let's hope they don't continue to pound this the way they are capable of doing: incessantly, every day, drip by drip, new revealation after new revealation, Andrew Brietbart the Right Wing Provacatuer, the Extreme and Dangerous Right Wing, Armed Militias, Guns and Terror, the KKK (and ineveitably) the Nazis, Minister of Propaganda, Goebbels, Goering, Hitler, Death Camps, starved naked Jews, Right Wing Provacatuers, Andrew Brietbart, Ace of Spades, 7HEAVENS, Blue Hen ...

He might very well have. That does not, or at least should not, obviate the fact that this woman announced that she harborded racist feelings and acted upon them. She victimized people. That she later reversed herself on the dubious grounds of class warfare does not make her any sort of sterling employee. Like Joe Barton's apology, there is both an actual event and the ever present tactic of making shit up. Even if Breitbart had handled this differently, the tendency in the MFM would be to blame him. How do I know this? Look at Journolist. Look at the reactions to the ACORN videos. Even if he had remained totally silent, then there exists a chance that he would be attacked at random. Ask Fred Barnes about this.

Yes! Welcome to the Friday Talking Points Memo, very brief due to it being the start of a summer weekend:

Only two things we need to keep in mind this week:

1. Shirley Sherrod's firing was exactly the same offense as Alfred Dreyfus being wrongfully convicted and sent to Devil's Island to eat maggot-infested rice twice daily.

2. Maya Angelou has diamonds where her cooter should be.

77

Obviously, Diogenes searched for an "honest man" (or woman) in the wrong century ...

“How is there a preemption issue?” the [U.S. District] judge [Susan Bolton, a Democrat appointee] asked. “I understand there may be other issues, but you’re arguing preemption. Where is the preemption if everybody who is arrested for some crime has their immigration status checked?”

Perhaps Eric Holder should apologize.

Point No. 1: The NAACP audience laughed when Shirley Charade made her racist comment.  That's why Breitbart used the tape -- that was originally sent to him in April -- to show the hypocrisy of the NAACP condeming the Tea Party as racist.

Point No. 2:  Ben Jealous was in the audience during Ms. Charade's speech.  He could've pointed out immediately that she "redeemed" herself, as you seem to think, but he condemned her ASAP.

Point. No. 3:  Breitbart and those of "us" that you insist look bad because of him didn't fire Charade.  Ebola did. 

Point No. 4:  There's a reason she was fired as fast as she was.  Either she was part of the set up for Ebola and Co. to claim FOX and right-wing sites are irresponsible and therefore should be taken off the air/taken over, or, the WH knows that Charade's race-hustler past is going to be exposed, and this episode just sped up the timetable.

Point No. 5: I'm not crying any crocodile tears for what you supposedly think Andrew B. did because he accomplished his ends.  He showed the NAACP for the fraud that they are and Charade will get national attention for being just another race hustler as well as far-left buddy and associate of Bill "Boom" Ayres.

80 Sherrod: Would like to get us stuck in the time of slavery, vicious, never tried to get past race, not interested in seeing anyone get past black vs. white, vicious against a black President, hasnÂ’t seen him do anything but try to divide us
Cooper: “You think he’s racist?”
Sherrod: “Yes I do”
Boy, that sure sounds conciliatory. Are there any suras on motes and beams in eyes? Or just any about being a dumb ass?

81 And also, via Instapundit:
POWER LINE: From Buckley To Breitbart.  “With the hounds baying, Andrew deserves the support of conservatives in his struggle with the Democrat-Media complex.” In covering this story, AndrewÂ’s journalistic fairness exceeded that of the New York Times, the Washington Post, or MSNBC. Perhaps thatÂ’s damning with faint praise, but the criticism of him is pretty weak, really.
