DIVERSITY ONLY COUNTS WHEN YOU'RE A LIBERAL
Apparently, the only people who can celebrate their own diversity are members of the left.
Take Linda Chavez, George W. Bush's pick for Secretary of Labor. She's opposed to affirmative action and bilingual education--which makes her a favorite target of the Democrats. Add the fact that she's one of the most articulate, conservative Hispanic public figures in the country...and as far as the Dems are concerned, Linda Chavez may as well be the bride of Satan.
Yesterday's New York Times reported that "her opposition to affirmative action has caused her to be vilified by civil rights groups and to be physically threatened when she has spoken on college campuses...Her marriage to a Jew, Christopher Gersten, and the rearing of her three sons as Jews, have prompted some to term her a traitor to her people."
That's funny. I thought the left was all about ethnic diversity. Tolerance for interracial mixing and multicolored families. Yet here's Linda Chavez being accused of betraying her Hispanic heritage!
Now we see that "diversity" is a word that can only be used by liberals to describe liberals. Any conservative whose family is "diverse" is either mugging for the cameras, or a traitor to their people. It’s all part of the modern leftist lexicon where “hate speech” is the utterance of any thought in opposition to a leftist principle, and “civil rights” means any right claimed by any member of any officially government sanctioned minority group.

If you stop and think about what's being said about Chavez by the Latino community (if indeed this is true. I have almost zero faith in the accuracy of the NY Times. This could just as well be a reflection of what the writer would LIKE to be true), she's being called what the KKK would term a "Race Traitor."
I guess you can get away with it if you're a pinko, though. What a world we live in.
