DEI Policy Has Benefited More White Women than African American Women

So taken-for-granted has the Affirmative Action Policy of Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) by many a White-American Woman that even politically Remedial Students like Lauren Boebert, the State of Colorado’s Republican Congressional Representative and a prime beneficiary of Affirmative Action and DEI policies, have cavalierly come to believe and assume that, somehow, it is highly qualified professional women political gurus like the American-born and Haitian-descended, Columbia University-educated ethnic-minority women like Karine Jean-Pierre, the Biden White House’s Press Secretary, who are actually the prime beneficiaries of DEI and Affirmative Action policy initiatives (See “Lauren Boebert Blasted for Calling White House Press Secretary ‘DEI Hire’” The Independent 7/4/24).

And, of course, as was all to be condignly expected, Ms. Boebert has been dished back in kind a vintage taste of her own bitter brew on Twitter/X, where the androgynous Donald Trump mastiff is reported to have composed and published her swill of rancid racist venom. The boyishly chinned nondescript wannabe Miss America reminded Yours Truly of both a dibble stick and a deep-shaft hoe of the kind used for uprooting yams and other tuberous vegetables while he was growing up in the Ghana of the late 1960s and the 1970s.

You see, “White-Skin Privileged” people and wannabe real women like Ms. Boebert, her last name actually sounds like “Rabbit,” and this author has had a difficult time recalling the same, often forget, rather shamefully, that but for their porcine-shaded rind that passes for the human hide or skin, they would not be holding the conspicuously oversized political portfolios that they shamelessly do not let the least opportunity to slip by without oafishly flaunting before the rest of us, including even their own sociopolitically privileged kind or ilk.

Now, we could discuss the kind of morally corrupt and decadent and psychologically cancerous system or culture that made it possible for even borderline retards like Lauren Boebert to so casually suppose that they could also so shamelessly call attention to the fact of their own patently undeserved and privileged sociopolitical status without feeling even a wink of remorse for such theft. Which also readily reminds Yours Truly about that memorable moment, not very long ago, when President Joseph R. Biden, Jr., had occasion to remind his fellow white brothers and sisters, especially those who misguidedly perceived their Caucasoid phenotypical identity as one that represented innate merit or a claim to racial superiority, knowing the bizarre and the peculiarly scandalous history of the United States of America that we all know and of which we are often painfully reminded: “You see, folks, I may be white but I am definitely not that stupid!”

The Scranton, Pennsylvania, native would soberly inform the nation. This is obviously the kind of basic humility that one would have routinely expected of and from any civilized and well-cultivated and decent American politician and citizen. But, obviously not from Ms. Boebert who seems to woefully lack the manners of a well-educated and well-cultivated woman raised in polite society. She is obviously what New Yorkers routinely describe as “White Trash” that ought to have long been swept and mopped out of Congress and promptly deposited in one of the trash cans that festoon the hallways of the majestic edifice.

The good news here, though, is the fact that there well appears to have been more than enough well-cultivated men and women from polite American society and from both the proverbial political and ideological aisles who were ready to promptly go to bat for Ms. Jean-Pierre, described by the media as the first openly gay woman – or affiliate of the LGBTQ community – to have been appointed to the highwire post of White House Press Secretary.

Now, it is pretty obvious that the Colorado Congresswoman spoke more out of raw envy and personal insecurity than from any real or firm belief of Ms. Jean-Pierre’s not really being equal to the task and the demands of the job, which was the suggestion that the barb-tongued floozy and loose-cannon wanted her rabidly racist remark to convey. Maybe somebody far more intelligent and level-headed ought to remind Lauren “The Rabbit” Boebert that Congressional Representatives who cheaply line up their support, like commercial sex workers, behind a mentally, psychologically and morally challenged Candidate Donald J. Trump, the “Pussy Grabbing” former President, ought not to be pompously lecturing the rest of us about the true nature of genuine merit.

Not very long ago, for example, Ms. Boebert was widely reported by the mainstream media to have literally gotten chucked out of a movie theater in the very State and the very Congressional District which she represents – actually grossly misrepresents – on Capitol Hil,l because this politically and emotionally immature diapered toddler was throwing tantrums and disturbing the peace and quiet of other moviegoers. This is obviously a human simian who does not deserve to cohabit with other humans in civilized society, and may very well have to be promptly housed in one of the major zoos located all across the nation.

But even then, Yours Truly is not certain that the Republic of Congo-imported chimps, orangutans and baboons will not stage a demonstration or even take up arms to have this “Rabbit” of a “Boebert” promptly discharged from their midst.
