Easy, Gargoyle. When we talk about diversity we're talking about the ability to see someone in a different position than ours and not judge them. IMHO that even includes middle managers.
Seems to me there's a big difference politically in condemning an action, and a person.
Of course this is the central dilemna of political action. How can we fight for a cause that is just without becoming as closed minded as those on the other side?
