Thomas Sowell on race baiting fraud

Context:

"At some point, even those sympathetic with the civil rights agenda -- and this undoubtedly included most Tea Party fans -- will recognize that this relentless craving for government-imposed racial equality is deeply antithetical to limited government. In the final analysis, then, the NAACP and its allies are on a collision path with the Tea Party movement. Put more formally, given what is already on the books and vigorously enforced, new civil rights measures serve only to expand government, with scant payoff for intended beneficiaries. The point of diminishing returns on political pressuring was reached long ago. In a nutshell, the very existence of the Tea Party is a message to the NAACP: Stop."

Meanwhile, why has this story been generally ignored by the ~~Dem/Lefty/"Progressive" PR team~~ Lame Stream Media?

Excerpt:

"As Barofsky points out, the Obama administration was given an advance copy, and 'Treasury [the Obama Treasury Department] might not agree with how the audit's conclusions portray the Auto Team's decision making or with the lessons that SIGTARP has drawn from those facts, but it should be made clear that Treasury has not challenged the essential underlying facts upon which those conclusions are based."'

Included among those undisputed facts:

-'[D]ealerships were retained because they were ... minority- or woman-owned dealerships';

-Thousands of jobs were lost, unnecessarily, due specifically to Obama's 'mandate for shared sacrifice';

-A disproportionate number of Obama-forced closings were of rural dealerships, in areas unfriendly to Obama, even though such closures could 'jeopardize the return to profitability' for GM and Chrysler.

The media, of course, remain mute about these serious allegations in the Barofsky report. They have limited their coverage to the job loss numbers and tried to place the blame on Treasury Secretary Turbo-Tax Tim Geithner."
