Is Newest Bush Nominee a Bigot?

Think Progress reports that the person that Bush wants to put in charge of human resources at the State Department has had offensive, bigoted things to say about every major ethnic group.

On May 10, 2005, the current director of the U.S. Mint, Henrietta Holsman Fore, was nominated by President Bush to be the next Under Secretary of State for Management.

....The position of Under Secretary of Management is a vital one, as described by the State Department’s website. It is responsible for leading the offices of administration and human resources, which deal with the hiring and firing of personnel. Fore’s nomination to this post has raised many concerns due to her record of making racially-insensitive remarks.

    Blag - Looks like her comments are 17 years old. Do you think she may have changed? I for one would like to ask her about her life in those 17 years. Without the hope of Heaven, what is Man? Without forgiveness, can their be Heaven?
