Keep it Going, David: Gov Axes Commish

GOV AXES COMMISH
The New York Post by FREDRIC U. DICKER

April 9, 2008 -- ALBANY - Gov. Paterson yesterday dumped state Human Rights Commissioner Kumiki Gibson, a former counsel to then-Vice President Al Gore who was the subject of human-rights complaints herself.
Patersonannounced Gibson's pending replacement in a statement that thanked her for her service but didn't explain her departure.

Two white women in their 60s who were fired early last year by Gibson filed a federal action alleging racial and age discrimination. They contended Gibson - who is of African-American and Japanese descent - had told employees that she wanted "young folks, young people" shortly before they were fired.

  1. It is a common practice for NY STATE to hire AFRICAN-AMERICAN FEMALES to utilize them to fire other female and african- american employees. They believe that they can pay this particular type of supervisor a lot of money and power and when they are truly comfy and indebted to the STATE , the STATE encourages them to fire the same type of protected group of employees, that they are part of!
    The stragedy is to say, and they have said this, that a black female would not participate in any TITLE VII violations, because they fall in the protected group...in two catergories! They forget the defense is that everyone has a price!

  3. Must this site constantly be so naive? How do you think Patterson got to be LT. Gov. - through the NY Times? He has already been shown to be corrupt. He's just doing typical damage control/bringing in his own cronies. You probably cheered Spitzer as a reformer too. How about delving into how these pols get their positions & noting the irony, instead of becoming part of their public relations machines? Don't you want to have any credibility?

  4. I agree, paterson is just like the rest of the current public officials- dirty. But the spotlight is finally shinning, and the dirty rats don't like that. We are seeing the beginning, though slow, of a change for the good. I believe we will see more ethics and less covering of the good ole boy's corrupt acts.
