The Power Of DISCRIMINATIONS

A day or two before Sen. Scott Brown?s announcement that he would support FinReg, I sent him this letter:

July 8, 2010

Dear Senator Brown:

Although I live in Virginia, not Massachusetts, I contributed to your Senate campaign (several times) before it was the popular thing to do among conservatives. That secured me a place on your mailing list, so that you can continue to solicit contributions from me [copy of recent letter appended]. That's fine. I continue to support you. But now I am going to ask you for something.

I see in the press that you remain undecided about FinReg. Let me call your attention to one under-noticed component of the pending legislation that, standing alone, should be enough to convince all conservatives to oppose it. I refer to the fact that it will unleash a Tsunami of racial quotas, as pointed out in my blog post:

[Text of blog post went here]

Thanks for your consideration. And if you should decide to support this bill despite its Maxine Waters-inspired crippling of the financial industry with more and more racial quotas, please take my name off your mailing list.

Regards,

John Rosenberg
