Dayton's News Source :: Top Stories - Civil Service Board Announces Police Recruit Scores
DAYTON -- The Dayton Police Department is lowering its testing standards for recruits.
It's a move required by the U.S. Department of Justice after it says not enough African-Americans passed the exam.
Dayton is in desperate need of officers to replace dozens of retirees. The hiring process was postponed for months because the D.O.J. rejected the original scores provided by the Dayton Civil Service Board, which administers the test.
Under the previous requirements, candidates had to get a 66% on part one of the exam and a 72% on part two.

Sadly, President Obama, is worse than evil. He suffers from the Peter Principal and Peter Pan Syndrome in vicious synonymy. He has neither the professional experience in national policy, nor the intellectual honesty to deal in fairness with adverse facts. Data that contraindicates his ideological fantasies that command and control economics can work simply doesn’t exist in his magical world. In Obamaland, political oratory marks the very day on which the levels of the oceans begin to recede.
Why is this just news now?? This was talked about quite a bit in early October 2008. It had to do with a targeted run on “money markets” and then was simply squelched. It always seemed like the Bush administration knew more but thought it was too risky to tell the common folk.
A few links:

There are more, but this was no surprise to the old or new administration.
