WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— For the US military, the standard is excellence. DD: While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they ever-increasingly lowered standards to hire, retain, and promote more Democrat minorities and more Democrat females. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my job-related bachelor’s degree, my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional licenses, and my job-related professional license. All the many minorities and females who my Democrat superiors promoted over me had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.
