Not Very Original At All

Julie Meyers was already on shaky ground in terms of her confirmation to the top Immigration post in the country due to her lack of actual experience in the area of immigration. Now….well, I wouldn’t get those new business cards printed yet.

Costume flap imperils immigration post – Yahoo! News.
“Myers, director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ran into trouble earlier this month after she and two other agency managers gave the “most original” costume award to a white employee who came to the agency’s Halloween party dressed as an escaped prisoner with dreadlocks and darkened skin.”

It’s scary to think so many people in power, and in line for power, are such idiots. And this is not original; it’s old and tired. I try to put myself in the mindset of someone who would find this entertaining and deserving of recognition, but I can’t. It’s beneath me and so are they.
