Affirmative Action Quote of the Day

This comes from Armstrong Williams, an African-America conservative political commentator and radio host from Washington D.C.:

How would people in favor of Affirmative Action react to Affirmative Action in the NBA and NFL. Martin Luther King, as we begin to celebrate his contributions was absolutely correct in that we should judge a person not by the color of their skin, but by the the content of their character. The American ideal is equal rights for all Americans. Our government should not not give preferences or provide impediments to citizens whether its Jim Crow laws or Affirmative Action.

Exactly. We will not achieve Dr. King's goal until we end preference programs and drive the racial grievance organizations and their noisy leaders out of business.
