Senate Dems Scramble After Report Shows The Most ‘Diverse’ Staff Is Actually Republican

DC: 

Senate Democrats are under pressure to bring more diversity to their offices, after a report came out accusing the party of “soft bigotry.”

Despite sounding the clarion call for more diversity and aggressively pursuing even the slightest whiff of racial bigotry over the last year, Dems are apparently scrambling to mix up the whiteness in their offices, Politico’s Playbook covered today in a short blurb.

On top of having no minority chiefs of staff, less than three percent of blacks and Latinos have senior staff positions in Senate Democrats’ offices, according to a 2015 report from the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies.

  1. Did we really need a report? They had an all white line-up in their primary with almost everyone in their 60s or older. The 17 person line-up in the GOP also included a woman, an Indian, a few Hispanics, an African American and a lot of people in their 40s/50s. It is right in everyone’s face if they just open their eyes and shelve their bias which group is really diverse.

  2. The Criteria should be to hire the most intelligent, most qualified, most experienced.

    The left and media’s concern for the color of one’s skin or ethnicity are bullshit non-qualifiers that have no practical applications (other than deceitful headlines and photo ops).

    When will we get back to hiring practices that are fair and equal to the most qualified?

  3. Almighty diversity! What a crock of crap.

    In 2014, there were an estimated 9.8 million adults aged 18 or older in the United States with Serious Mental Illness. This number represented 4.2% of all U.S. adults.

    In the name of almighty diversity all government entities must be comprised of 4.2% Serious Mentally Ill.

    EXCEPT Congress, they will have to “reduce” their 34% Seriously Mentally Ill to 4.2%
