President Obama losing his base and others

This man is AWESOME!   and from Chicago.  

I wonder what the libs will call him?

It’s come to a point where I now find myself, a black conservative, sharing similar thoughts about Obama as the Congressional Black Caucus. Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA), for example, now warns about “a growing frustration… in minority communities.” Welcome to my world, Maxine!

Blacks, who delivered of over 96 percent of their votes to Obama in 2008, seem to be suffering the most these days. In July, the overall reported unemployment rate was 9.1 percent. The reported rate for blacks was 15.9 percent. In Chicago — the hometown of Obama, my driver and me — it’s 21.4 percent. Gang violence is out of control there, with children being gunned down blocks from Obama’s Hyde Park home.

All Americans are experiencing some measure of social-economic strain. But we do not want to fundamentally change America. We like America and all that it represents in terms of freedom, justice and opportunity.

Obama, on the other hand, seems to be under the impression that Americans want to be on the dole like people in European countries, but we equivocally do not ascribe to or want handouts. A hand up would be nice, but not a handout.

We are a proud nation. It’s now questionable if Obama shares that pride.

Must read!  I am going to starting reading him

Very encouraging article. Now if he can convince his brethren, maybe Barry will actually do the duffle bag drag out of my White House.

Oh, and Barry? Take that bimbo bitch with you when you go, mmmkay?

Not meant to be offensive but it seems that a lot of the time when the black community doesn't succeed it is blamed on race.  If Obama was a dem white man would they be screaming about the high unemployment rate for the black community saying he didn't care about them because they are black?  Obama doesn't give a crap about them.  I even think he doesn't see himself as one of them.  He is an elite man.  Rich, wouldn't talk to any of them unless they were chewing on some arugula. 

I just wish they saw that it's blatantly obvious from my view.

Actual shovel-ready construction jobs often don’t necessarily help blacks because things such as the Davis-Bacon Act can still hinder black hiring. And the Obama Administration’s position on illegal immigration and backdoor amnesty puts social and economic pressure on all low-income Americans.

Who would guess that a law helping unions would hurt black employment?

Who would guess that allowing illegal immigrants  into this country would hurt black employment?

Democrats really don't like black people, they just like to use them.

I was reading an article in WS, about the behemoth food stamp bill.  A section of North Carolina gave a special award to a govt employee for her work in larding up the roles.  "For counteracting mountain pride."
