But if you could only interview one of them? Which one would you choose?

I'd interview the one who has the most experience....unless that person was named Moonbeam.

The bottom line is if you name your kid Rainbow and they get the shit beaten out of them, or they get picked on, or they hate you, or they have a hard time finding a job... it's YOUR FAULT.

Unlike the Chinese, I didn't name my child by dropping a drawer full of silverware down the stairs.... PING .... ZHAO... SUM... TING.... WONG

Neither is oranjello, lemonjello, Shaqueefa, Shaquanda, Monifa, Sharhonda, Ebony, Lexus, Mercedes, Alize, etc.

I don't care what someone's racial origin, religion, gender, age, etc. happens to be as long as they can communicate effectively and work well with others.

If they've got an oddball name, I read no further. If someone's name is Claud Balls, I laugh and toss the resume in the garbage and I judge the other candidates based on their level of skill, education, and experience.

I'm neither racist, nor sexist. Discrimination based on names I find stupid is neither of these. On the contrary, I support meritocracy in all areas. I want TRUE equality for women.

I will tell you this, if your name was actually "monster", you wouldn't get hired.

Very telling indeed - - - From one who supports the "there are no illegal immigrants position," yet you still wouldn't hire a Chiquita, Bonita, Filiberto, Esmeralda, Placenta or Quique....

....LOFL - - - you are priceless dude - effin' priceless!

Seems to me he's also got a double standard, and a rather unusual fixation on the name "Moonbeam."
