Kit Darby's credibility was shot back in 98 when (during our contract negotiations) FedEx used him to produce statistics that showed we were all bazzillionaires who worked one day a month. A small exageration perhaps, but his data stunk from high heaven. Naturally, it was provided to him by the company , which then used him to provide cover for very bad information which they fed to the media. So......using Kit Darby as a source for anything is akin to asking Olbermann for an unbiased opinion on the prez race. Nothing Kit Darby say's is reliable, Period, dot.

No, there is no self-contradiction.
Your logic, or lack thereof, is flawed. I never said, or even implied that the laid-off employees were entitled to a job. I said that nobody was entitled to a job in regard to the post I was responding to. For the laid-off employees, I have only said (I challenge you to find and quote where I said otherwise) that I was in favor of preferential interviews for the laid-off employees......uhm, there's sort little
difference between having a right to a job and preferential interviews.

Also knew a guy of Middle Eastern descent, with fewer qualifications than those guys, who got called for an interview (and hired, naturally) less than a week after he submitted his application--with zero internal recs.
On top of that, he's an *********.
It's great to see affirmative action alive and well. More to come if Obama's elected.
