You have got to be kidding me, all this BS about how challenging our President on the issues comes from a racist slant - this country elected a black man, a democrat, got
the monkey off our back to use a colloquial expression, albeit now a
racist expression no doubt. There is a Democrat majority, they can pass any legislation they please, they have 27 of 50 Governors and who know how many mayors. On the Mayor front here is a statistic - all Democratic Mayors and the percentage of the city living below the poverty line - booo - hoooo
1) Detroit, MI 32.5%rs
2) Buffalo, NY 29.9%
3) Cincinnati, OH 27.8%
4) Cleveland, OH 27%
5) Miami, FL 26.9%
6) St Louis, MO 26.8%
7) El Paso, TX 26.4%
8) Milwaukee, WI 26.2%
9) Philadelphia, PA 25.1%
10) Newark, NJ 24.2%
Did you know that when I retire and am living comfortably on my savings and investments that I will be living below the poverty line because I will not be "earning" income??? I digress again. But the 3-4 million center right/left swing
voters who tilted the election to Obama due to an understandable
disgust with the previous adminastration are having serious buyer's
remorse - ironically, it is the age of the first black President of the
United States and his over-reaching, radical agenda that has finally
rendered the accusation or the label of "racist" as a mere spitball in
the back-and-forth name calling arsenal of American discourse. To be
called a racist now in America is likened to be called a neo-con, a
leftist tag falling limp upon the ears of the middle left and right - a
tag that some will begin to wear proudly, a badge of honor reflecting
the illogical assumptions of the opposition's argument. Once the left
cries 'Racist!!' to any opposition voice no matter the source, they are
then marginalized to the fringe and dismissed. Likewise, the great news gatherers of the past are being ushered into the house of non relevance by their lack of integrity and discovery in the age of the new media.
