Racist speech from an Obama "Czar"

And he doesn't like free speech either:
"President Obama's diversity czar at the Federal Communications Commission has spoken publicly of getting white media executives to "step down" in favor of minorities, prescribed policies to make liberal talk radio more successful, and described Hugo Chavez's rise to power in Venezuela "an incredible revolution."

Mark Lloyd's provocative comments - most made during a tenure at the liberal Center for American Progress think tank - are giving fodder to critics who say Mr. Obama has appointed too many "czars" to government positions that don't require congressional approval. They are also worrying to some conservatives who fear the FCC might use its powers to remove their competitive advantage on talk radio and television.

Mr. Lloyd spoke about the need to remove white people from powerful positions in the media to give minorities a fairer chance. "There's nothing more difficult than this because we have really truly, good, white people in important positions, and the fact of the matter is that there are a limited number of those positions," he said. "And unless we are conscious of the need to have more people of color, gays, other people in those positions, we will not change the problem. But we're in a position where you have to say who is going to step down so someone else can have power."

Other bloggers are questioning Mr. Lloyd's commitment to free speech based on a line in his 2006 book, "Prologue to a Farce: Communication and Democracy in America": "At the very least, blind references to freedom of speech or the press serve as a distraction from the critical examination of other communications policies," Mr. Lloyd wrote. "The purpose of free speech is warped to protect global corporations and block rules that would promote democratic governance."

How would it go down if we said that there are too many blacks making a fortune in some sports so we need to get rid of a lot of them to give whites a chance at getting all that money?

Of course he never considered the possibility that the people who are being listened to are the ones that the audience prefers to hear. Of course he's just using code words for quotas again.

Television? Since when do conservatives have an edge in television? With the exception of Fox News (which is not conservative but is balanced) every other news network and pretty much every program on TV is left leaning.

Oh and this guy sounds as dangerous as Obama.

The reason liberal talk radio fails is because very few people listen and therefore they can generate very little advertising revenue, not because the radio executives are white. Liberals can instead listen to most of the evening news for their liberal talk shows.

Wait a minute - he's right! No white male ever succeeded in life without doing so on the backs of women, minorities, and gays, lesbians, bi, and transexual people!

It's the least we can do to elevate those who never even had a chance by virtue of their skin color, gender, or different sexual state!

All those the White Man has ever trod upon NEED this sort of help! Let's face it, without Liberals intervention, they have no chance of ever making it on their own!

You're right Stan B.... And if anyone ever said that about me I would be pissed off and prove them wrong, not roll over and thank them for the scraps they throw my way.

So should Keith Olberman and Rachael Maddow step down as well and let minorities take over?

Mark Lloyd is the real racist, rather than seeing minorities as individuals that can rise through the ranks based on their own merits and talent, they must be treated like their special.

It's funny how the liberals say Obama is president of all Americans, judging by the Czars he appoints I think Obama's only president of the blacks and browns. He's certainly not my president since he doesn't represent my values.

It's a rather odd statement. Have you noticed that since Odumbo was elected, "most" TV commercials now feature blacks? One could almost get the impression that blacks are the majority in this country. Yes, i know they are in some ways, but i'm talking about actual numbers.

But it's not at all surprising. Mr. Lloyd is a well-known Marxist who was hired by a Marxist president to rule over this nation of fools.

With Keith Overbite, that would at least make for an improvement!
