This news about the US Naval Academy:my take....
Two WHITE Midshipmen -who worked hard and earned the right to be on the color guard were told at the last minute - that they were being replaced for DIVERSITY'S sake---
Could one of the replacements be a Muslim---Hameed is his name...Hmmmmm!!!
I place this 'teaser' here for a reason-from Diane West:http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/1116/Diversity-Uber-Alles.aspx
Two white, male members of the color guard learned Oct. 28 they were being replaced with a white woman, Midshipman 2nd Class Hannah Allaire, and a non-white man, Midshipman 2nd Class Zishan Hameed, on orders of the school’s administration, according to an internal e-mail message provided to Navy Times by an academy professor. With a national television audience, Naval Academy leadership worried the color guard it planned to send wasn’t diverse enough, the e-mail said.
However, after the color guard arrived in New York for the game Oct. 29, Hameed, whose family is from Pakistan [on top of everything else], realized he had left his dress shoes and cover in Annapolis. Midshipman 1st Class Aaron Stroud regained his place and served as a rifleman for the presentation of the colors. Allaire carried the other rifle and the four original members marched with the flag

The Potemkin Color Guard goes mainstream
As the Midshipmen at the Naval Academy, family, friends, and alumni have been hoping, the story of active discrimination going on at Annapolis has broken into a major daily newspaper of record; The Washington Post. The NavyTimes article by Philip Ewing on Sunday was good - but the Washington Post brings it to a wider audienceThese were the two before...

This post may seem a bit 'haphazard' --these last 7 days (w/Ft Hood and et al.) have been mind-benders!!! However-I knew this 'stuff' was happening in our military ---
I just post it like I see it...!

They're right on track to undermining the heart of western power, is there anything the left don't hate and want to destroy.
