Are You Reading the Newsbites, Folks...?


How's the lyric go...

"I once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now I see..."

What's it gonna take for some of you to care?

The Left is strangling America... creating in its place "Amerika" - a land I want no part of.

Do you folks truly want your children and grandchildren to live in "Amerika?"

Yes, yes... I understand... you're busy...

I get it; this is a public forum. Nothing written here will ever truly disappear. Why "come out" as agreeing with me? Why risk it?! After all... don't I know you agree with me?!

And as to those of you who disagree with me... well... I can't really blame you for lacking the guts to debate. Hell... you younger folk were actually raised to avoid direct one-on-one conflict, to shirk from rather than embrace competition.

I know... I know... every so often I post one of these "accusatory rants." But, folks... it's not because I lack the courage of my convictions - it's because most of you do. (Either that or you simply have no convictions.)

Yep. I can compartmentalize. Some of my best friends are intellectually lazy! Others are ignorant. Still others simply believe "why obsess upon things which can't be changed."

My buddy Carl is a Tory. (Or... he would have been one! He freely admits it!) Does that mean he's not my best friend? No. I compartmentalize. He does however often make me sick. The lost potential... that's what sickens me. He could make more of a difference if he'd choose to. He's a "make no waves" kinda guy though. Largely it's served him well. Personally that is. Has he fulfilled his duty to his children though? It breaks my heart to say it, but "no," he hasn't. He won't. He won't fight the system in the hope that by doing so he saves his daughters from a future where America is lost and gone forever and all that is left is... Amerika.

Oh, well... I'd better cut this short before I start naming other names...

(*GRIN*)

Anyway... back to newsbites...

I hope you read them, folks! The news... the facts... additional commentary via moi... you'll learn more "social studies" (and economics) via this blog than most of you did via K-12, college, and even grad school (depending upon where you went, what you studied, and most of all, how far you tend to follow your own intellectual curiosity)!

Here... enjoy the following front page newsbite to go with those in the comments section:
*  *  *  *  *  *


The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), a federal agency tasked with enforcing workplace anti-discrimination laws, is suing a private American business for firing a group of Hispanic and Asian employees over their inability to speak English at work, claiming that the English-language requirement in a U.S. business constitutes  “discrimination.”

* IN YOUR NAMES, PEOPLE...

* THIS IDIOCY IS BEING DONE IN YOUR NAMES... IN OUR NAMES!

Judicial Watch reported Tuesday that the government is accusing Wisconsin Plastics, Inc. of violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination based on “national origin.”

* CAN ONE STILL "DISCRIMINATE" BETWEEN AMERICAN CITIZENS AND NON-AMERICAN-CITIZENS...? (I HOPE AND PRAY SO!)

The government argues this includes the “linguistic characteristics of a national origin group.”

* WTF...?!?!

Irene Garcia, the blog editor and Spanish media liaison for Judicial Watch, called the EEOC’s accusation “ludicrous.”

(*JUMPING TO MY FEET TO APPLAUD*)

“That’s ludicrous and an overreaching of government,” Garcia told CNSNews.com. “If you are a private company in the United States, you should be able to require your employees to speak English.”

According to a news release from the EEOC, Chicago Regional Attorney John C. Hendrickson said the Green Bay-based company’s English requirement is based on “superficial” reasoning.

"Our experience at the EEOC has been that so-called 'English only' rules and requirements of English fluency are often employed to make what is really discrimination appear acceptable. But superficial appearances are not fooling anyone,” Hendrickson said in the release. “When speaking English fluently is not, in fact, required for the safe and effective performance of a job, nor for the successful operation of the employer’s business, requiring employees to be fluent in English usually constitutes employment discrimination on the basis of national origin — and thus violates federal law.”

* INSANITY...!!!

* FOLKS... IMAGINE... IMAGINE AND EEOC COMMERCIAL TOUTING ITSELF: "THE EEOC - BRINGING ILLITERACY TO A COMPANY NEAR YOU!"

(*GUFFAW*)

But Garcia said the ability to speak English is necessary for employees of Wisconsin Plastics, Inc., but that the employees in question “were not able to speak English at any kind of level that would be considered proficient.”

“In this case some English is necessary to communicate with supervisors and stuff like that, and the EEOC just went after this private company because some employees were being marked down for not having English skills. So that doesn’t really make sense,” she said.

* NONE OF THIS MAKES SENSE! NOT UNLESS THE GOAL IS TO HARM BUSINESSES... TO CREATE WORKPLACE DIVISIONS... TO WEAKEN THE ABILITY OF MANAGEMENT/OWNERSHIP TO PARTNER WITH WORKERS UNDER THE MOST BASIC LINK THERE IS - A COMMON LANGUAGE!

Garcia added that the lawsuit, filed on June 9, is just the latest in a slew of attempts by the EEOC and the Obama administration to go after American businesses for so-called “discrimination.” She cited numerous cases in which the EEOC has accused businesses of discriminating by requiring workers to speak English, running background and criminal checks, and enforcing company-wide restrictions on head coverings, including those worn by some Muslim women.

“We’ve seen some decisions that are kind of radical that we haven’t seen in the past, under Republican or Democrat administrations,” she said, claiming the EEOC under the Obama administration is “on a roll.”

* FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION...

Many lawsuits brought by the EEOC subjectively twist the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to include things it was never meant to cover, Garcia added.

“We’re seeing a lot of these kinds of law suits using his civil rights law to sue on behalf of all these different causes that I believe violate the spirit of the law,” Garcia explained.

“In terms of religious and language rights under the Civil Rights Act, that’s what the administration is using to offer and extend protects when really and truly there’s no place for them [in the law],” she said.

* AMEN!
