Shorter Hovde

Shorter conserva-tarian columnist Dina Elizabeth Hovde, writing about the shocking fact that Clark County has a workplace diversity program:
I don't have to worry about diversity at my workplace because The Columbian stopped reporting those numbers a few years ago.
But when The Columbian was still reporting to the Knight Foundation, they did manage to crack the 2% mark a few times. That was a little below the reported 13% non-white population of Clark County, but who's counting? I guess Asian-Pacific Islander is pretty white, or white enough Hovde can kind of skip over it. They're inscrutable, but at least they're not, um, black or something.

I say we blame the victims. That way conserva-tarian ideology can continue to exist in its own special universe, right there on the editorial page of The Columbian, unmolested for the most part by anyone who would argue against her or present progressive ideas. Dina has some axes to grind and grind them she shall.

Time for a blogger ethics conference!
