She might be a racist at work but I’m an old white dude and have had a beer or two with her on several occasions and didn’t notice any racism at all.

The most successful racists are the subtle ones, though. (At least, subtle until there’s nothing you can do about it.)

I’d agree except the association here is purely social through other friends – no reason to even entertain me if she had a thing against “white folks”.

She likely is simply as poor a manager as Haley (and, Sanford) and when she came on board some of the black managers thought they could get away with stuff and get back at people.
When people from off the street are appointed to head agencies they know nothing about – either staff or policies – this is what we frequently get.

She hardly “…walked in of the street…” she’s been a deputy director there since 1999.

We agree.Obama appealed to the white ‘middle class’ by telling them that he was all about healing and bringing people together.

After being elected and there was nothing the voters could do about it, he has proceeded to use the race hustlers in this country to pour gasoline on race relations while Holder’s DOJ continues to light the match.

She should have been fired over a year ago on the day the LAC report was released. Any CEO that shows racism in their hiring decisions and “loses” money would be kicked to the curb, and she should have been.

Until The GOP FUMIGATES ALL liberals from all influence, we’ll swirl downward…There is no short cut or option…We MUST eradicate liberalism from leadership positions, or we continue to fail….

Good Conservative people are ignored, while some FITS-type-middling Dumb@$$ Republicans hustle to show how “open-minded” they can be by exalting Hateful liberal Racists, sexists and bigots…

FITS is a great example of Liberal-Tarians, trying to stay hip to pop culture…but laying some claim to the wisdom of Conservatism. It’s just not possible to be part liberal…and be successful at anything. Conservative…or nothing…

As a very conservative, born and lived all my life in SC who was taught to give everyone a chance … NO RACISM … I even voted for the great Changer Obama. Who is no MLK by the way. All ive seen is reverse racism becoming more prevalent. Im slowly realizing that the limousine liberals are no different than the republicans they hate. Just using a different ploy. But you need to give Will his props, who else is trying to get the word out about all the BS

Kela Thomas is a mean, evil, vindictive sociopath. She was incompetent before Steve Benjamin felt sorry for her and gave her a job. She was incompetent as Deputy Director and she is by far the most incompetent and despised director PPP has ever had. The disdain for Thomas has no color boundaries. She is hated equally by all races; and all races are happy to see her go. The only exceptions are the members of her bully club that were promoted to positions for which they were not remotely qualified. Now they are afraid of the inevitable ax falling in their direction. Hopefully the new director will chop the EMT trees as the first order of business. All of them are power-drunk incompetents.

Predictions on how long before you add Susan DeVenny, First Steps director, to that list? If recent testimony at the First Steps study committee is any indication, legislators now know the problems are because of her inability to be on good terms with pretty much everybody she was supposed to be working with.

Don’t miss the last five minutes of testimony where the chair asks for Susan to say a few words to the committee since she’s been at every session without testifying. Senator Mike Fair quickly intercedes saying DeVenny needs time to prepare her remarks.

Turn It Inside Out December 20, 2014 at 2:52 pm

That entire agency is a shipwreck of illegal activity. It has operated in the shadows for decades now. Turn it inside out, and you will see what I mean. How can you respect the law when the law is not respectable. These people often violate constitutional law and civil rights statutes like you would not believe. They have secretly been called down over it many times before. Just ask the lawyers who handle civil rights cases, if they will talk that is.

Did Kela Thomas and others at SCDPPPS commit FELONIES? — South Carolina Code > Title 16 > Chapter 5 – Offenses Against Civil Rights —- It is unlawful for two or more persons to band or conspire together or go in disguise upon the public highway or upon the premises of another with the intent to injure, oppress, or violate the person or property of a citizen because of his political opinion or his expression or exercise of the same or attempt by any means, measures, or acts to hinder, prevent, or obstruct a citizen in the free exercise and enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution and laws of the United States or by the Constitution and laws of this State.

A person who violates the provisions of this section is guilty of a felony and, upon conviction, must be fined not more than two thousand dollars or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. A person convicted under this section is ineligible to hold, and disabled from holding, any office of honor, trust, or profit in this State.
