Celebrate Diversity Unto Death

From the always readable Mark Steyn at NRO Online:

Celebrate Diversity Unto Death

Best bit:

You'll recall the cringe-making response to the massacre by the embarrassing General Casey, the Army's chief of staff:

"What happened at Fort Hood was a tragedy," said Gen. Casey, the Army's chief of staff, "but I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here."

The fact that a grown man not employed by a U.S. educational institution or media outlet used the word "diversity" in a non-parodic sense should be deeply disturbing
