Yeah, I remember the cries of "There will be no lowering of standards!" Yet there clearly have been, across the board. But now, to comment and criticize is somehow 'racist'? I don't get it - what part of "You're the public servant, and I'm the taxpayer paying YOUR salary, so I expect some form of competent performance" don't they get?! That isn't a "black" or "white" thing, it's a "we're not idiots, and you suck at your job" thing!
