Is Hollywood blatantly racist for not including a more diverse set of actors, actresses, and movies among the Oscar nominees? My strong guess is that privately, people are fuming at the suggestion. Are we supposed to nominate lesser performances for the sake of keeping up appearances? Do we give up our standards of fine acting for the sake of being politically correct? How is that being fair? It kind of begins to echo arguments against affirmative action. 75

Bingo! And there’s the rub.

Obama’s hordes of Hollywood hypocrites are the first in line to tell us the progressive virtues of affirmative action, of quotas in college admissions, and that it is a moral imperative that we reject merit-based hiring and instead “embrace diversity,” regardless of the economic consequences or impact on efficiency and performance. Yet when the question of race-based hiring and affirmative action quotas gets thrown back at them, Obama’s “Yes, we can” coalition says, “No we don’t, we won’t, and we never have. It isn’t about black or white. It’s about green. This is a business! We hire those who draw the biggest crowds! Period.”

Racist, capitalist pigs! Merit-worshipping bigots! Bush lied, hiring quotas died!

And the beat goes on.
