Don't believe the NAACP has any jurisdiction over the military other than sound bites in from of a microphone.

Not again. Okay, time to reverse things. I didn't get promoted when I was in the army because I was white.

Not really, but it looks stupid when I say that, doesn't it? Enough with the race card. Thanks OJ, thats one more reason to hate you. Why doesn't the article say how they were discriminated against? Why isn't there a national white association for all the reverse discrimination? Who else is tired of hearing this same old story? Raise your hand.

Anyone with first name of King, could learn to believe it and act accordingly. 13 people is not just a random occurance. But they are black and female, so just another one of those deals where they have something to prove or want something. Lets just sweep it under the rug as we have done all the years in the past.

The thing that kills me is how much the race card still works. I don't know anyone that's still alive from the "slave" days. They say we get special treatment, but the only thing i've seen is them get special treatment. I've never been handed anything. I've had people on calls tell me they were proud to be on welfare. What? I can't understand the mentality some people have. I didn't get my way so I'll just say it's because I'm black. And it works. When are we going to stop treating them like they're five years old and tell them no? I'm part Indian and I've never said a word. And this is'nt to everyone, just the idiots who continue to use the race card.

The race card will work as long as racism is as rampant as it is! I was national liaison to Native American tribes for my USDA agency and I can tell you that EEO, Civil Rights Issues were not on thier agenda. Tribal Sovereignty, treaty land rights and other issues were. I am sure the Native Americans have not forgetten the atrocities against them in this countries early days, but it is not a part of their agenda today.

Nixon will not reappoint him and will instead...mark my words. Appoint the first female to the position.

Because as we all know if you are a minority and do not get promoted it is only because of racism or descrimination and cannot ever be based upon merit.
