IS AFFIRMATIVE ACTION STILL NEEDED IN OBAMA AGE OF CHANGE?

nope. Ever heard a song by the band Rush, called "The Trees"? The maples were unhappy because the oaks grabbed up all the light. And the oaks couldn't understand why the maples couldn't be happy in their shade. So the maples formed a union, and they ped a noble law. Now the Trees are all kept equal, by hatchet, axe, and saw!!! Never before or since has anyone ever summed up affirmative action any better!
