Diversity

The other day the Post ran a story about the lack of diversity in the Republican Party. The question they so conveniently chose to ignore was; is diversity a reflection of the party or a reflection of minorities? I tend to believe its the latter.

The truth is the Republican Party opens their arms to all minorities. This is a reality based in fact that literally smacks the left in the face and they choose to ignore said fact over and over. If the Republican Party was not open to minorities why then are Condoleeza Rice, Clarence Thomas, Michael Steele, Alan Keyes, J. C Watts, Colin Powell and Thomas Sowell (one of the greatest republican columnists) active members? These are just the ones I can name off the top of my head. I challenge any democrat to do the same.

Its actually sickening the way the left treats republican minorities. In brief (because there are actually far more attacks than I care to discuss), they called Condoleeza Rice an Aunt Jemima, the farcical attack on Clarence Thomas and the most recent was when Michael Steele had oreos thrown at him at a debate for Md State Senate. Who, by the way, lost to a crotchety old white guy democrat.

The fact is we have minorities in the republican party, its just we give them positions of power to gain experience. You see, we give the most qualified candidates the job whether its a supreme court justice or secretary of state or Lieutenant Governor. The democrats have fallen for the cult of personality and nominated an inexperienced Senator who spent his short time in Congress not doing the work of the people who elected him but seemed to spend his time running for president.

The only way Obama should be in the White House is if McCain invites him over for dinner.
