Webb: Cut affirmative action

**Silver Stallion** · 07-24-2010

Never heard of this guy...but he does have common sense.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Reacting to recent accusations by the NAACP and the tea party movement calling each other racist, U.S. Sen. Jim Webb reiterated his belief Friday that affirmative action programs unfairly penalize poor whites and should be limited to assisting only native-born blacks still suffering from past discrimination.

Government-mandated diversity programs work against bringing more economic fairness because they have "expanded so far beyond their original purpose that they now favor anyone who does not happen to be white," Webb, D-Va., wrote in a Wall Street Journal column published Friday.
Affirmative action programs that assist black Americans who endured institutional racism for generations should remain in place for those "still in need," Webb wrote. But other government-directed diversity programs should end, he said.

"Those who came to this country in recent decades from Asia, Latin America and Africa did not suffer discrimination from our government, and in fact have frequently been the beneficiaries of special government programs. The same cannot be said of many hard-working white Americans, including those whose roots in America go back more than 200 years," Webb wrote.

California recently passed a proposition to end race-quotas created within the state. Unfortunately federal race-quotas are still in force.

In places like California where the population is about half non-White, if you have racial quotas based on the local population, you'll introduce a crippling amount of incompetence.

I think allot of White Political activism going forward is going to be around
the issue of Affirmative Action. White kids are having enough trouble getting the kinds of jobs Their Parents Generation had. People resent reverse discrimination.
Rich Chinese Kids in Their BMWs can be considered Minorities? That
won't work.

I was reading about James Webb on another Forum. Some People were complaining about His Asian Wife. Still, I was argueing that that doesn't mean He can not still have some Racial and Ethnic loyalites. He still thinks like a White Guy. He wrote a book about the Scots Irish in America.

It might be more politically possible for a miscegenator to do what is right on the affirmative action issue.

There's one conservative writer, Michelle Malkin, who makes a lot of good points, but she of course is an Asian.

As long as someone is making a valid point, I don't mind quoting them, but we should never think that we need validation from our racial adversaries since most of the time, they won't admit wrong-doing.

I can only think of one Black, Ward Connerly, who has come forward and openly said that it's WRONG and disgraceful that Blacks and Latinos are taking jobs from White people based entirely on our race. This is the definition of racial discrimination.

If it was bad to discriminate against Blacks, it should be just as bad to discriminate against Whites, but Obama, Supreme Court Justice Sonya Sotomayor and millions of liberals want anti-White discrimination in the form of racial quotas to go on forever.

I believe that the destabilizing factors of immigration (legal and illegal ) have greatly enabled the kleptocracy to loot our nations and subvert the leadership. Much of what they have done would be impossible to get away with in united countries with united people,IMO.

Lke yourself, I find the rare voice of common sense is a welcome one at this stage regardless of race.
