Give me a moment to collect myself here. (I think I might have just pee'd my pants laughing so hard.) Dude, seriously?

Today's conservatives are the most intolerant bunch of folks I have ever witnessed in my 54 years on this planet. They are the very reason I have abandoned the GOP and changed my lean to independant/somewhat liberal.

Further, I agree that Obama has not performed as well as I would have liked him too but I, like too many other people to count, place a LOT of that on the shoulders of the GOP who have stifled him at every turn and pretty much held the country hostage in their disdain for the president. It doesn't concern them none that Obama was duly elected to do the things the people wanted done. It is clear that they don't care what the people wanted. They have fought him every step of the way. He could have proposed an iron clad solution to world hunger and even the cure for cancer and they would have STILL fillibustered him. Yes, the GOP and the Dem's could have united and worked together towards the issues Americans are concerned about and elected Obama to accomplish but they chose not to. They have put GOP partisan politics above the will of the people and I will never forget that.

Pass that pipe over this way man. I need me some of what you got. That was just TOO funny. Good one! :2wave:

The only one here with a pre conceived notion is you. Facts always get in the way of your personal opinion and that of others. You don't seem to know the difference between an op ed piece and actual data. Ask Allen West to explain it to you, or Clarence Thomas, or J.C. Watts, or Michael Steele, or Herman Cain, or Tim Scott, or Condoleezza Rice. It does appear that the one concerned about African Americans is misguided and out of touch with reality

No, actually I posted the latest unemployment numbers for African Americans as well. Guess you missed those but of course have no problem with it since you need people dependent in order to keep your job. Buying votes with that dependence is good politics for liberals.

Why would anyone who wasn't dependent be looking for an Obama handout? I can see that nothing is going to change your mind regarding liberalism including actual data. You deserve what you get but the rest of us don't

Interesting how actual numbers to a liberal are meaningless. What is it about the liberal ideology that creates such loyalty?

And how exactly does other people being unemployed help me keep my job?

Every time you claim such blatant nonsense and are challenged on this you are NEVER able to offer any sensible proof of this ridiculous allegation. Will now be any different?

I know - silly question.

It does not. I suspect one has to drink thousands of gallons of the right wing kool-aid before the wisdom of it all suddenly takes shape and becomes clear.

Democrats - just like their counterpart the Republicans - are elected everywhere. And none of them have anything to do with my job.

You fail yet again miserably. I suggest you stop trying to make this personal and stick to the issues.

Obama's Approval Rating Drops to Lowest Ever, According to Gallup. Now 26% support Obama's handling of the economy. Maybe the Democrats in Michigan will learn that supporting the same failed ideology over and over again and expecting different results is insane.

Well that certainly is true for black Republicans who want to run for Congress, where there certainly is a lack of jobs.

Out of the 535 elected Congressmen/women, there are only 2 black Republicans. That's 2 out of the 289 Republicans in Congress; or roughly 2/3rds of one percent. Roughly 50% less than the 1.2% you would expect to find given that blacks make up 12.3% of the population and 10% of them vote Republican.

On the flip side, you would expect to find 11.1% of black Democrats in Congress given that blacks make up 12.3% of the population and 90% of them vote Democrat. There are 40 blacks out of the 246 Democrats in Congress; or 16.3%. That's roughly 50% more than you would expect to find represented in Congress.

Republicans elect 50% fewer blacks than their population represents
Democrats elect 50% more blacks than their population represents

But you think Republicans treat blacks more fairly than Democrats do??

Yep, you're a Conservative alright.

Since you have never posted your campaign literature I can only react off your posts which would indicate that you are a Democrat in a state that has suffered under Democrat control as evidenced by the state unemployment rate and in particular the disaster known as Detroit. Unemployed Americans rely on Democrat programs for their unemployment benefits and other aid. Prove to me that you don't support programs that keep people dependent? 2 years of unemployment benefits help whom? Liberal social spending benefits those that implement the program more than they support those that receive the so called benefits. Personal responsibility doesn't exist in your world

No, he doesn't Just last night he lied about something I said and even after I showed him he was flat 100% wrong and his allegation that I lied was also 100% wrong, he flat out said he would not man up and apologize.

This is what happens when you elect an inexperienced incompetent liberal elite into a position of authority in a private sector economy. Book smart and street stupid liberals will never get it. Unfortunately the majority in this country are paying for the brainwashed individuals who bought the hope and change message and nothing positive from either.

I am going to give you a warning, stop the personal attacks and baiting or I will for the first time in this forum start reporting your posts. I am done with this bs from you so I suggest you either stick to the thread topic, move on, or get reported. I don't want to do it as I have never done it before but guess there always has to be a first time for everything.
