Quote
“Amnesty,” complained Frankie from Maryland recently on the nationally syndicated “Keeping it Real with Al Sharpton.”

Quote
“Our issues are not being highlighted and pushed, and things like gay marriage and (immigration) are being pushed to the forefront,” the caller said. “Hispanics are effectively organized. For us not to be organized and for us not to hold our leadership accountable is disheartening.”

Although the civil rights establishment, from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to the Urban League and Sharpton, squarely back Obama’s desire to tackle immigration, the president’s call has reignited complaints within the African-American community that he is addressing the specific needs of almost all major voting blocs – Hispanics, women, gays – except for the African-Americans who gave him 93 percent of their vote.

I cannot help but laugh at anyone who voted for Obama.

Obama did nothing but increase minority unemployment during his first term and they still voted for him because of their racism.  They deserve what they get from him during his second term.

Obama and Democraps takes blacks for granted, shits in their bonnet, and they wear it around as a hat ornament. Black unemployment has soared under his regime. It is only going to get worse as more illegals take jobs away from blacks. Amnesty and a huge voting block is what the Democrats are after, and blacks are too stupid to see the writing on the wall. They don't care about either race; they just want their votes.

The Dems like to think in collectives. Individualism does not exist to them.

that's what you get for voting for someone just because of the color of his skin.

And isn't that sad? Race is not much of a qualification to be the president, is it?

Affirmative.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
