Richard Cohen Simply Does Not Care For Affirmative Action
America's worst writer, Richard Cohen, strings together the saddest tale of all today in his important Washington Post newspaper column. Overarching topic: the Supreme Court. Pertinent issue: Affirmative Action. Protagonist: hard-working white firefighter. Antagonist: Negro race. "Punished" victim: all white people. Unimportant litmus tests: abortions, "unions." Only important litmus test: getting hard-working white firefighter's job back from Negroes. Person whose fault all of this is: Barack Obama. "Supremely irrelevant" factor in American society: race. Bittersweet music to play in background: "Colour My World." Policy that Richard Cohen does not understand: Affirmative Action. [Washington Post ]
